    I'm going to attempt to use some bar's leaks for differentials on mine first. Like as not as old as my Ariens is, I'd never get the auger apart without a machine shop as I think it's rust welded to the axle on the left side (The sheer pin on that side broke on both ends, is stuck inside the axle and yet the auger still turns with the axle and still throws the snow. My Ariens turns 60 this winter and still runs great, but it can be a bear to work on sometimes, lol. It's a model 10M4. I couldn't even drive the old broken sheer pin out with an air hammer and a punch.

    I have this same unit and today I replaced the drain pump in about 20 minutes. This video helped but I will add a few things: 1- You do not have to remove the top. Remove only the front panel of the coin catcher and then tilt the machine back to get to the 3 10mm bolts that hold the pump assembly to the bottom plastic frame. 2- You do not have to remove any of the hoses from the pump body. After removing the 3 10mm bolts, pull the pump assembly to where you can remove the 3 screws that hold the pump assembly to the metal frame. Then remove the screw that holds the cover over the drain motor, unplug it, then remove the 2 remaining screw of the drain motor. **Make sure you pay attention to the orientation of the drain motor as it connects to the pump assembly. Then simply reverse the order of everything you did.

    • @diyrepaircorner
      @diyrepaircorner 10 місяців тому

      The houses are built on Piers. But the floor is not so therefore we have movement when this clay expands. You can do a structural floor with 8 to 10 inches of concrete two layers of rebar and put piers throughout your floor with cardboard void underneath. This is a structural and is mainly used in commercial buildings around here very expensive.

  • @donaldlee6760
    @donaldlee6760 10 місяців тому

    At 0:45 - if the drywall holds the two parallel bottom plates together (and not so much the nails?), then isn't the drywall screwed into both the lower and upper bottom plate? If the floor heaves upwards and closes the 1-inch gap then wouldn't the drywall buckle at the bottom? Also wouldn't the heads of the nails tend to back out of the upper bottom plate?

    • @diyrepaircorner
      @diyrepaircorner 10 місяців тому

      Drywall is only screwed to the top plate. And the drywall is left an inch off the floor. Expansion does not always happen just trying to accommodate it if it does. if there is excessive, shifting all your doors will have to be all readjusted and you’ll have minimum things to fix rather than pushing your rest of the house up. I have renovated houses where they did not install the 1 inch gap and as the ground pushed up it also pushed the main floor and second floor higher causing problems in the entire house.

    I discovered that the number 1 reason why this happens is because (hard to believe that almost everyone underlooks) the furnace is sloping the wrong direction. In other words its draining the wrong direction causing condensate to accumulate and overwhelms the gasket. Its much easier for a installation tech to level it and let it burn or leak and burn the inlet motor. But check the direction of flow of drain. It should be going away from not into furnace Furnace owners check level of furnace check what direction slope!

    Fellow Manitoban here- what’s code for properly doing moisture/ vapor barrier on the perimeter walls? I’m seeing conflicting answers, MB hydro states to put vapor barrier on the backside and front of the wall- but I feel that would create a moisture problem

      Manitoba Hydro is wrong. You always have to have your vapour barrier on the warm side otherwise you’ll get moisture problems.

      They recommend 1/2 way up concrete only and down and up around on warm side.

    I live west of Denver where code requires 1.5" expansion gap. I'm redoing a 50+ yo basement that had gaps, but the construction technique was inadequate. I haven't been able to find much DIY information on framing doors and, more importantly, a tiled shower stall. City inspector wasn't much help, nor were the two contractors I talked to. I'm all ears for any advice or sources of information!

      You frame the walls with the gap at the bottom. If the floor does move up you will have no choice but to but to ajust the door and accommodate for the movement.

    Wouldnt the cut weaken the stud. Sure your putting the screw in it as well but the load will never be translefed as well as if it was full. Most people tend to plane the side down a bit instead. What are your opinions. If it was just one stud then it will be ok especially on a partition wall but if it’s load bearing and also multiple studs I wouldn’t recommend. What are your opinions

      If it was a loadbearing wall, I would just replace it. Just a partition wall the odd one a screw might just do or you can scab a piece of scrap lumber on to help hold it. That’s what I would do.
