Hi Donna, I'll try to put this in english, cause I cant even understand the other answers.The dryer wont spin if the belt is broken.It is fairly easy to replace,and depending on your brand of dryer, you can find the instructions online.That should get U started.Any questions,hit me up!My name is Mike,by the way.

Hi everybody! Just wanted lo let y'all know winter is fast on its way so you should not neglect your transportation. I see too many people cet into cars, etc. reving them up to warm the moter faster. This is a terrible thing to do to a motor because it can cause little tiny cracks within the works. 1) get it winterised. Include radiator flush and fill up up with a good quality antifreeze. This includes turing the heater on to its highest setting. 2) give the motor time to warm up while it is ideling. 3) adjust the air pressure in the tirers because they need more pressure because the air is colder and will decrease causing them to reduce volume lessening road surface traction allowing safer handling in the ice and/or snow, and better fuel efficiancy 4) if in heavy snow areas use tire chains. 5) always carry snow shovel, short wooden boards with roofing shingles nailed abundantly to then? Flashlight with extra batteries, de-icer, scraper, blankets, road flares, basic tool-kits, replacement belts for each pully under the hood,and drinking water, plus military type food rations, and most important-an emergancy mobile phone. These things are not only for your safty but may even save your live and those of loved ones-Later, BumbleB.
Replacing Gyprock

I am going to replace a couple sections of gyprock and will need to do patch work (fill in the edges and sand when dried - I can't remember what this is called) to have it fit in with the rest of the wall. Can you tell me the tools and supplies I will need to do this project?

singleladyinsaintjohn16: what you are going to do is called 'taping and floating' the gyprock. This means just that. You need gypsum tape which is just like construcyion paper and comes in rolls. Also you need joint compound. This you spread on the wall just enough to hold the tape, and then cover the expossed tape with more joint compound with a 'floating tool', or trowle -kind of like ironing the compound flat. after it dries you must sand it all down so it levels to the gyp rock. The hardware store people will be glad to help with tools and instuctions. Good luck. Later- BumbleB
I am tired of doing it myself!
