Question:

tightening wheel studs?

how long do you think it would take a mechanic to tighten the wheel studs on my 93 integra. the guy i bought it from said that i had to tighten the wheel studs on it as he had just put a new tire on and the wheel was making noise because of the loose studs. i have an extra set of studs in case i need new ones, and also how much do you think it would cost for him to do it?

Answer:

if you have the fear, no amount of monthly payments can make you feel safe. Don't feel safe? move out.
if this is a water line u must shut the water off to the home. take a torch and heat the damaged area. take some flux( its a solder paste) and brush it over the area. then take some solder and add to the area. do this while u have the torch heating the pipe. it will not work without the heat if u never did this before u may be better off contacting a plumber. good luck
The corner fitting you seek are called Side Outlet Tee's ans Side Outlet elbows these are not commonly found at a Home Depot. You can either mail order them or go to a plumbing supply house to get them. PVC for plumbing and electrical work is different in some respects as they designed for different uses. However you will find that the sizes are the same. So 1/2 inch PVC fittings for plumbing will fit on 1/2 inch PVC conduit. You may have noticed that the PVC in the store comes in different colors. This is to identify the specific use the PVC was designed for and makes it easy to spot a misuse on a job site. It is also easier to glue same colored pieces of PVC together due as they are made of the same type of plastic. PVC electrical conduit is stronger but is also a bit heavier as it is slightly thicker. PVC for plumbing comes in different thicknesses called schedule (SCH). The bigger the schedule number the thicker the PVC is.SCH40 is white in color and is probably the thinnest PVC you will find at a Home Depot. I feel that you will find that the white SCH40 PVC for plumbing will be strong enough for your 3-4 foot sections. As for making it easy to disassemble you do not need to glue all the connections together. Instead you can connect the PVC and it will pretty well stay together with a friction fit (dry no glue). If you want to make it so that it can't be pulled apart but disassembled you can drill a small hole into the fitting and insert a screw to lock the two pieces together. You can do this to some or all of the joints or have a mix of glued and screwed connections.
