    Question on fill time for a toilet

    Did you try a flush & turning the water supply valve off & then back on to see if that dislodged any possible hard water deposits in the shut off valve? Have you tried scrubbing the rim of the bowl with toilet brush while flushing to see if there are any blocked discharge holes around the bowl...

    Question on fill time for a toilet

    3 minutes to fill after a "quick flush" is long especially for that amount of water recovery of which is only a little over a half gallon. It shouldn't take that long to fill. Something is up with the supply line or the valve. Try closing the shut off all the way after you flush, then reopen all...

    Question on fill time for a toilet

    Fully agree, refill time should not differ, a flush is a flush. Holding the lever down allows the water in the tank to completely expel, & with that, the flapper may not be seating correctly & allowing some water to escape until the level of the water in the tank gets high enough to allow the...

    When Karma Comes Calling

    EV charging station? I have read recently that a number of Tesla charging stations have been gutted of all the copper wiring inside.

    Lucky to Be Alive!

    Glad to hear they were able to escape unharmed. It will be interesting to find out if the charger itself was the issue or the installation of the charger. I was under the impression that those charging devices are suppose to be used outside. Nonetheless, glad to hear they are all OK, stuff can...

    Auto experts: oil seepage

    The only time I use the dealership for auto repair is for warranty work. All other services & maintenance is done with a local mechanic/service station. Trustworthy with good work at a good price. Treat them well & you get treated well in return, very accomodating & friends for life.

    South Dakota

    Here in the Keweenaw, the trails will be primarily sand, gravel mix with some rocky areas, not a real issue like in the mountain areas. Nice pics.

    Auto experts: oil seepage

    Glad to hear it's not worse, hard to believe a price like that, but, considering where we are at today with the price of parts not to mention the labor charge, it's not earth shattering. There is probably more labor hours involved than the cost of the actual part. If you trust the shop, no need...

    Huge Pike in Boundary Waters -

    I thought this was a good one to share. 39 y/o Jacob Skorloken was fishing out of his canoe as they paddled Crooked Lake. He was fishing with a spin cast rod & reel with 6 lb line & a 3/8 ounce blue & black jig when this bad boy latched onto the lure & ran. After a 20 minute battle, was finally...

    Meanwhile, on Lake Superior

    I have heard that it was a stress fracture due to metal fatigue. The crack was reported to be 13' long. Might be time to pull this out to dry dock & inspect the entire hull. I would be leary of sending it back out considering the circumstances. Some of these ships are pretty old & with age comes...

    When They Double Dog Dare You

    Impressive back flip! Did the security guard really need to taze the guy for that though? The guy had no escape route out.

    My vehicle was totaled by my insurance company

    Insurance rates have been on a steady rise for the past 12 plus months, primarily due to the cost of repair & replacement. Auto parts have been on the rise since 2020 & have not leveled off, likewise with building materials. Issues with supply & demand are part of the reason for prices on the...

    Auto experts: oil seepage

    Oil seepage issue could be from passenger side valve cover gasket. I had a similar issue with a vehicle, it never left a drop on the ground & wasn't ever low on oil. I would take it elsewhere to get another opinion on it though.

    Dollar General

    These stores are cropping up everywhere. 3 years ago one was put up in Lake Linden & now there is another one to be constructed in Dollar Bay. This will make 5 in a 20 mile radius.
