Plastic Coke Bottle Carrier Holds Aersol Paint Cans
 ✖  |
Richard Sands, McConnelsville, Ohio: “I got tired of aerosol paint cans, WD-40, and other cans rolling around on my shop floor, work bench, drill press, etc. So I found an old plastic Coke bottle carrier and mounted it on one side of my roll-away toolbox. Now I can keep up to 24 cans at a time right at my fingertips. It really helps keep my shop free of clutter.”
John Kennedy, Seligman, Ariz.: “I bought an old Ford pickup equipped with a 360 cu. in. engine that wouldn’t turn over. The hood was off so the engine had been exposed to the elements for several years.
“I drained the water and oil out of the crankcase, but the starter motor wouldn’t budge it. I tried using a socket and bar on the crankshaft but that didn’t help, either. I even removed the spark plugs and filled each cylinder with diesel, and then waited a few days. No luck.
“I observed that only the no. 4 cylinder still had diesel in it, so I sucked the fuel out and filled that cylinder with Mystery Oil. Then I waited a few days and put a ratchet strap on the socket and bar. It moved just a bit so I was able to take up the slack in the ratchet strap. I kept that up, off and on, over the next 2 days until finally the engine broke free.
“Now the crankshaft spins like new.”
