Sooooo.... I might have another project going.


Brew, here's Bill's link, fixed:

Yeah, those mowers ripped pretty good. I think they designated Hunter as driver for the next race. It was hilariousness watching Michell give it hell lol.

That would be a neat project. I have a Deere w/25 horse sitting in storage w/snowblower attachment. Haven't used it in 3 years. Motors a little big for it..it flexes the frame cracking the paint off that and the deck...lol. I have to keep it inside now or it will rust. It a Kawasaki and a beast!

Thanks for the link repair

Update for W10 tonight ...

EDIT: Just finished the update 10 minutes for me. My browsers had to update separately once windows was done.

Any idea how effective it is? I don't have any issues where I am at, but run into customer cars that have.

The description says "critters". I would suspect that means more than just mice. Honda put a pic of a mouse directly on the tape, LOL.

Rodent tape is a deterrent for critters that like to chew vehicle wiring. Wrap any trouble spots to prevent any future wire harness issues. The tape is treated with capsaicin (active component in chili peppers). When wrapping the harness it is recommended to use the half-wrapping method. Each time you wrap the tape around the harness overlap the previous layer by half the width of the tape. One roll = ~65 feet of tape.
