MEMBERS ONLY, BUY/SELL/TRADE / Wanted: 4 Inch Montgomery Wards Master Quality Adjustable Wrench.
« Last post by amecks on May 05, 2024, 07:54:33 PM »Looking to purchase a 4" adjustable wrench marked Wards Master Quality. There are two types - one has Wards Master Quality stamped, the other has Wards Master Quality cast into the handle. Would prefer the cast-in name type but consider either.
Shipping to 13080, Jordan NY.
Thanks,
Al
Afterthoughts...
Will pay cash but I do have wrenches to trade if you are missing some.
Yes, there are some Wards 4 Inchers on ebay but the one I like has condition issues.

GENERAL DISCUSSION TO INCLUDE OFF TOPIC / Re: VW vacuum leak cause is incredible --
« Last post by stokester on May 05, 2024, 03:53:56 PM »I've never heard of a smoke machine used for an intake/vacuum leak.
My use was limited to EVAP leaks which can be very hard to find.
On a side note I still cannot get used to mechanics wearing watches and rings while working on vehicles. My military training coming through.

« Last post by Uncle Buck on May 05, 2024, 09:45:32 AM »Cool stuff! The quality of the Lufkin mics equals Starrett, Brown and Sharpe, and Mitutoyo in my opinion.
There are several other exceptional quality lesser known brands that I frequently hunt in search of bargains to buy.

« Last post by goodfellow on May 05, 2024, 07:05:46 AM »Apparently a faulty rear main engine seal is causing the fuel trims to become very unstable and the car's developed a substantial miss. The smoke machine is the only way to track this apparently common VW problem down.
You could have sprayed this engine with brake clean all day and the numbers would not have changed.
