I use chemical guys as well...in the foam canon. Cut the tree sap first if need be, then use the good stuff. Lots of trees around here. They're going to be spewing soon.
Is there a difference between the 899 and 899B? Mine's just an 899 - but it had the same ratings. I've had it for a while... At least 15 months because the first video I used it in was my F150 pinion seal video... that was in Jan of 22. I usually only have it on 1 or 2 though, because it's got plenty of power.
In DeWalt naming convention a B on the end means it is sold as a Bare tool without battery or charger. The tool itself is exactly the same.
It's been a very productive weekend.... I finally got the garage somewhat cleaned. It needs a bit more, but I can move around now, LOL. This week is (now) supposed to be somewhat decent. Decent enough to get working, anyway. Ohio... a while back, we briefly talked about using Evapo-Rust on parts that I can't (don't want to) soak in it. I believe it was you that used a "paint on" method. If so, can you explain how well it worked for you? I have brake parts that I'd like to derustify and I don't want to soak them, necessarily.
I think that was me. The key is to get a rag you don't need anymore and soak that in the solution. Apply the solution to the part and then wrap the part in the rag. Use zipties or whatever works to keep the rag as tight as possible to the part. Re-wet the rag occasionally. This is not as effective as soaking but still gets the job done.
Thank you for all if that info Buck0. That's all good to know. I'm guessing a few of mine have a B on them.
I spent my night making a spring installer for AOD's, and maybe the 4R70/75. I really need to take a sumbitc4in welding class. I always get better at the end of the project, and when it's a small project, it looks like butt.
Said spring installer... and I did confirm, it also works on 4R70W's. Pretty sure it's to install/uninstall the accumulator spring. I'll be using this tool first hand pretty soon. He's got an AOD he wants me to rebuild as he teaches me.
