    Live Centre looks to be dead

    Success! Applied Deep Creep a few times during the day and then I let sit overnight, pointy side up. EDIT If you decide to follow the advice below be advised that I now realize there appears to be a small metal pin in the centre at the back of the Live Centre (see image below). The centre...

    Halton, Ontario doctors can prescribe "Nature Pass"

    My in-laws have a version of what you are talking about. After almost 40 years it's just about coming to an end. Fairly relaxing place to visit with all kinds of wildlife dropping by. On the other hand there was (and still is) a lot of up-keep. Probably more than they should've tried to take...

    Halton, Ontario doctors can prescribe "Nature Pass"

    I was making light of this story, too. Like what's next, "studies show breathing air is considered part of a healthy lifestyle"...? Then the more I thought about it I tried to find a possible hidden motivation. Maybe I'm not seeing the big picture. One theory I have is too many people go to...

    Live Centre looks to be dead

    I have a ROTOR C2 Super live centre that isn't spinning freely. I took a look at some videos for disassembly for a live centre but I didn't see anything that looked similar. Since I do not have any experience with taking apart a live centre I would like a second opinion on this one. There is...

    Mazda 6 doesn't like Canadian winters

    According to a Mazda dealership tech I spoke with recently, there is an older TSB that includes the 2010 Mazda 6 for a "frozen starter relay" that can be upgraded. Mazda owners who experienced this problem prior to the TSB and realized it was the relay could pull the relay, bring it...
