I've been lucky. No surgery, just injections. Haven't had one in about two years though. Exercise and good posture are what's keeping me going now, plus a lot of Aleve. (naproxen sodium, if you're not familiar with the brand name).

All cudos are truly appreciated. Thanks!

Bend the tube some more. Just make sure you don't kink it.

The switch contacts are probably dirty/burnt. If all else fails, remove the switch, take it apart, (carefully), and clean and reassemble.

Whale tails! = :greddy2:

Just so you know, it was a plastic capped radiator, so using the rag posed no issues. (Except for aesthetics).

Take a small brass wire brush to the faceplate contacts, and lightly clean them. That was what solve my faceplate issue, when it happened to me.

You can make a great puller, out of a cheap 3/8 extension. I made a drawing of the one I made a while ago. All you need is a grinding wheel of some sort, and something heavy enough, with a hole big enough to go over the shaft, but not the receiver at the end. A large 1/2 in drive socket worked...

Yeah, CPS! (corrected) Pardon me, I was on another planet this morning.

Hey! I just thought of a better method. Since it probably is pressed in, it might be better to use a large C-clamp, and a length of tubing as a receiver. 8, or 10 inch clamp should do. Just put the anvil of the clamp inside the block, on the dipstick sleeve, and put the tubing over the sleeve on...

Yeah, a cheap battery will work, it just won't last as many years. I only said cheap in case you were cash challenged. If you can afford it, get the most expensive battery on on earth if you want it.

This may be a little better picture of what IJ's trying to show you. The loop can extend deeper into the tank than what's shown in the photo, there just wasn't room to draw it on the pic. Though, it looks to me like, if you positioned the fittings correctly, you could do it without any cutting...

If your CPS doesn't look like this, (see attached picture), when the engine is at top dead center, it = epic fail!:aigo:

Look at his voltage. Battery 11 volts, charging at 14. It's a bad battery.

Use something that will not bend the piece. If you just try to bang it out with a hammer, you could deform it, and it might not fit through the hole. A roll pin punch of the appropriate size would be good, but just hitting it with a hammer could be bad.

Just get a cheap battery for now. It'll do better than trying to bring the old one to life.

An hour, that's pussy talk! You need six hours a day, at least!:crazy1:

Yeah the led's signal is different from the old style light, so you definitely need the correct sensor, or bypass it.

How about straight alcohol in a spray bottle?

Oh, and lastly, find the kit that has the 3 inch in/outs or you will need more reducers, (at least I don't see them in the pictures).
