With Singer Down-Flo electric heaters, does it matter if polarity of wire connect is reversed (not marked) ?
Singer Down-Flo Electric Wall Heater
Series 5990 (1.5 -2.0 kw Model) 220 volt - 20 amp circuit
Originally installed in 1980, unit worked with automatic thermostat but in reinstalling to new location, I forgot which way black/white wires go. I reconnected but unit now constantly runs (with or without heat) . I wonder if polarity should be reversed to run correctly.
I am not an electrician. But it sounds like a disaster of some scale waiting to happen. Ask an expert.

Old moral/saying/story, guy needs a tire jack, it ends up being a moral for not worrying ahead of time?
I heard this saying once, but I can't remember how it goes.
It's something about a man who's car broke down and he needs to borrow a tire jack, but on the way he thinks of all these things that could go wrong. . . and the morale ends up being not to worry about things so far ahead of time.
Anyone remember it in detail?
There seem to be a few different versions. Here are two websites with two different ones:

Great Tips on How to Organize Your Garage
A lot of people use tend to use their garage as a workshop, a place to enjy their hobbies and even a place to hang out with friends to relax and unwind after a long day at the office. In order to maximize the potential of your space in your garage, you should create some structure and organization. This can go a long way towards reducing some of the clutter while creating extra room for all of your favorite pursuits.
For instance, if you install cabinets, workbenches, shelves, hooks and baskets you will be able to stow items away in a spot that is convenient and out of the way. It is important that you map out exactly how you want to use the space in your garage before you start. What items do you want to store in the garage? How can cabinets and shelving units be used for storage? Knowing the answers to these questions will help you organize your garage more quickly.
Examples of common items that can be easily stored in your garage are cars, tools, lawn equipment and bicycles. Don't limit yourself by only considering storing these types of items, as you will only deprive yourself of space that can be used to store a variety of other objects such as holiday decorations, toys and seasonal clothing.
If you have a garage that is smaller in size, you may want to consider using the upper walls and ceiling of your garage. Many people do not even consider using these areas for storage as they are difficult to reach. There is a simple solution to that issue, use a ladder, pulleys or a hydraulic lift to help you raise objects into the elevated areas. This will help to free up additional space within the garage.
Before you being the organization process for your garage, it's a good idea to sort through all of your items and decide which things you are going to keep and which items you are going to get rid of. A lot of space can be freed up by simply tossing out items such as unused object and broken toys. Another great idea is to hold a garage sale or donate the items that are still in good shape to a local charity. Make sure that you use common logic to organize the garage; keep dangerous items locked up and items such as tools that you use on a regular basis in an accessible location.
Following these simple steps will help you to create a pleasing space that maximizes the potential storage space of your garage.

'96 RAV4 Wheel Bearing - part+2.5 hr. labor fair? "harder" to put on?
I was told by the garage (not someone I normally go to, so not sure how trustworthy) that my '96 toyota RAV4 (almost 150K mi) needs the left front wheel bearing replaced to pass inspection. they estimated $65 for the part, which is about what I found online. But, they told me it is a labor-intensive job to fix, and would take about 2.5 hours. They said that this particular kind of wheel bearing is "closed" so it's not something that can just be repacked w/ grease, and that it is a tight fit and requires some sort of hydraulic something-or-other to fit it on tightly and accurately - not an easy -to-fix wheel bearing like other vehicles. True? Not true? Please help quick! I need to tell them whether or not to do the work this morning, and I'm trying to get other estimates. Thank you!!
There might be one more suprize the drive flange with the wheel studs can wear away at the bearing when there is slack. Hydraulic Press is used to drive out the old bearing and press in the new one. You might call the toyota parts department and ask if they also sell flanges when wheel bearings are replaced. Yes 2.5 hours is the going price and your mechanic will come out looking like he did something. Front suspension under the fender is the dirtiest place on the car.

Joe and Sol were small time thieves. One day they laid waiting near a shop to lift a vehicle.?
They saw one guy parking his mobike with a sidecar and leaving without taking the ignition key. They thought that this was their right opportunity and dashed for the bike. Sol took the driver's seat and started the engine and joe jumped into the sidecar. They drove the vehicle as fast as they can and reached the road leading out of the city in seconds. Just then, with a sigh of relief, Sol turned to his buddy and was shocked to see Joe's face. Joe's face had turned red and he was gritting his teeth. He knew something serious had happened. Sol shouted above the noise of the engine: ' What the hell is the matter?' Joe shouted back : ' This lousy sidecar has got no bottom'.

how do you lubricate a lift?
automotive, frenner is the manufacturer if it makes any difference
Open ended question
Open ended answer- Grease gun and put about 3-4 pumps into each grease "zerk" on the lift. They may be hidden by dirt so wife clean with a shop rag before and look for ones hidden by grase dirt or just hard to get to or see locations.
Indoors do it once every two years. Outdoors(Florida comes to mide) do it every 6 months.
Hope that helps
