    Usb cigarette lighter replacement

    I put the exact one you showed in mine, and I love it, it gives me 'turbo power' on my phone and no other outlet has, I have had 3 in my Yukon now... the only complaint is, the blue light on the voltmeter is too bright.

    Qi charging center console ideas?

    I took apart my wireless charger... looks like it will work, but it has a fan inside it, that was unexpected, now I question how hot will it get and will that be a problem... It will take me another while to progress farther, life gets in the way, but soon, soon.... :)

    2006 Hydroboost question.

    Thank you so much bottomline2000 !! You saved me a bunch of needless work... I too just pulled the front half off the hydroboost, and replaced the bad seal and the figure 8 seal.

    Weird, sparks on A/C accumulator....

    It kept happening so I doubt static... plug wire maybe... somehow, I looked for a plug wire touching but maybe I missed something, it is the only thing that makes sense, has to be... new plug wires, but it does have a slight miss at idle sometimes (sometimes being the key here).

    Weird, sparks on A/C accumulator....

    So, today, I was adding a can of freon at my sons house, and he went to unhook the gauges after filling it with freon... I said "why did you jump"? He said "It sparked"... So, I didn't think it really did, but sure enough, where the foil meets, the joint, was arcing... blue spark... if pulled...

    Oil pressure switch, screen?

    OK, I finally got my truck back... Total rebuild, .030 over, new everything. ALL that was wrong was a spun cam bearing, that's it... the lifer was ticking due to lack of oil but it was not hurt... Drove it home today, about 50 miles, running very well... oil pressure idles at ~45lbs, moving down...

    Oil pressure switch, screen?

    There was no oil pressure on the bottom end. We already knew there was not on the top, but we really kinda expected the bottom end to be ok... So, interesting, but what does it mean? The builder is thinking I originally spun a cam bearing, and lost pressure, and when it got worse it was because...
