You are referring to the Mosquito Magnet. I also have one of those with a (How To) repair video. Between the two of these devises our mosquito problem is fixed.

Yea and it really is the third time I have had to fix the front bushings. Most people have heard of the Georgia red clay like from the movie (My Cousin Vinie) but along the coastline there are a lot of pine trees for the paper mills and sandy soil.

Easy fix, best kind of fix.

I saw a video for an aftermarket truck accessory for a ford raptor. It was for a cabin filter that was fitted to the outside of the engine compartment. watch that it might be easier than going through the underside of the dash. Try searching this (How To Clean Fresh Air Grate on Ford Raptor-F150 [Bonus Cabin Air Filter Replacement!]). do not know if this will help. This youtuber has some personality, but his videos do show things about a f-150 that are nice to see.

Thanks for the tip.

Great, I wish the plants were doing better, been a rough year in the garden.

I rebuilt it and painted it green to match my 1025r tractor. Another video I need to edit. Thanks for noticing.

Thanks, just keeping it real. I need to make some more crawler videos.

Never heard of a gasket maker, that would be handy for more than just a water hose connection.

It did not fix my problem.

@@diyhomefront1695 I guess I need to determine if it’s bacteria in the tank itself or the well but when I first replaced the anode rod I treated the water heater tank with peroxide and it worked for a few weeks

@@KollynJ Most of the things I have done seemed to help for a while but I have found nothing that fixed the problem.

@@diyhomefront1695 what have you done

Not sure I understand the question?

Down south in the summer they really do make a difference. I hope I make it through the summer months before I have to do more maintenance.

Any thought on what the best thing to use would be?

Thanks, I need to make some RC videos, never enough time for the hobbies.

yes it would have.

The well pressure regulator is set at 40 PSI

If I understand it right the mower blades have a little bend at the end of the blades. That helps the blades lift the grass, cut the grass and get it out of the mower deck. The vortex baffle helps keep the shape of the mower deck correct to help with that (cut and remove the grass).

Thanks, I do not know how I would have been if they kept cutting.

Did not know that I bet it would have made the install easer.

That is the big dilemma, when it works it really does a good job, but the m-magnet isn't cheap. I looked on-line for the thermistor and could not find one. Good luck with yours.

Thanks, I never know what people might find interesting, so I just make videos of everything.

Just doing my thing, I decided to film the things I do around the house. Really glade it was helpful and the kind words of encouragement.

I really do go through the whole stack sometimes and leave with 5 or 6 boards. you really have to plan ahead.

I just start a project and If I get stumped, I go to the owner's manual. You can learn a lot from the parts break out, like how the mower goes together and things you did not see like the transmission filters. If I really get stumped, I spend some time on You Tube seeing if someone else has the same problem or a fix.

Thanks for the catch.

Glade you got half of your smelly water problem fixed.

@@diyhomefront1695 that's not what i said, bra

Did not understand, you want to build a table or have the table you described. I agree it is hard to move these tables. I usually out it up on one end and use a dolly to move mine to the back yard when we have company.

Do not know but I believe you. That dirty water leaves behind a residue and probably dries in-between use. Nothing worse than trying to clean a rug and you end up with doggy smells instead.

I saw one video where a guy cut the hose connection off and soldered a new one on, but that is a fix that is above a lot of people abilities.

Yes it is. If we go on a trip all I need is the case. Unrelated to the case I think I have purchased about 5 sun filters for the camera. Do not know what I do to knock them off the camera but once they hit the ground they are gone. I just keep putting them into the filter case I made for the equipment travel case.

Thanks for the kind words. I think I am so calm and composed because most of the time something goes wrong and over time you just get used to it. I would tell my kids that a flat tire is such a BIG deal the first time you have one, then you get into a wreck. After that when you get a flat tire, it does not seem like such a big deal, replace the tire and you're on your way unlike a wreck. Well once again thanks for the kind words.

I am not a true professional but this what I do. If I was building something that would be out of the weather and I was going to maybe polyurethan it, I would do just what you said. Put on stain and then wipe it off. That is because the majority of the purpose of the stain would be to color the wood and a secondary byproduct would be to provide the project with some king of protection. If I am doing a project that I know is going to be outside, the first thing is to protect it from the weather and rain. So outdoor stains/sealers are weather coating and meant to seal and protect the wood. I always use a brush to work the stain/sealer into the wood. I also really work it into the grain of the wood and leave it that way. The more stain/sealer left on the surface the longer it will repel water and hopefully last before I have to do it again. Sorry for such a long answer but there it is, that is what I do and why I do it.

This has been one of my most popular and commented on video. Thanks

Well, i twisted off the part of the brass 3/4 inch where it enters the solenoid disc trying to open it. Opposite the purge side. May I ask where you got your replacement parts?​@diyhomefront1695

@@jmonkey1111 I only got the fuel nozzle and a purge/clear adapter from amazon.com. Parts are hard to find, I could not find a thermistor. below is the description of the I ordered. Hope you find your parts. Mosquito Magnet Patriot Plus, Patriot, & Defender Corded Model Fuel Nozzle Mosquito Magnet Quick Clear Adapter Replacement

The dimension are 12 x 6.7 x 5.5inch (L x W x H), I do not plan on caring much more than locks and a few drinks when I go bike riding. It has done just fine so far.

that work because you need to set aside a whole day if you want to swap out the bad one with a new one.

Sometimes it is easier to eliminate those hard-to-get spots or paint runs, but I do not know if it makes the table last longer. I would paint it after it was together so I can paint over all of the screws or bolts that keep it together.

@@diyhomefront1695 thanks! Putting it together now!!

I replaced the belt already thanks for the kind words and advice.

I did not think comments like yours would make me feel so good. I spend a lot of time making these videos and sometimes I wonder if it really makes a difference or helps anyone. I am glad I could help you.

Wow those are some really kind words. Thanks very much. I just wanted to make videos of my life and what I do around the house hoping I could help others. Before you disassemble your m-magnet try it with the gas turned down from all the way open or on to half or less open. I do not know for sure, but I have a filling in my gut that was my problem. Good Luck fixing yours, they are not cheap but when m-magnet works it does help with getting rid of the mosquitoes.

I cannot remember the exact date I got mine, but this should be my third year. I bet there are small changes each production cycle. Thanks for the comment. I bet there are people that read all these comments trying to fix their mosquito magnet.

Yea, but if you have ever had a bad case of sulfur water you would rather replace the water heater every ten years if it meant getting rid of that smell.

I feel your pain, do not want to admit defeat when you're sure you have checked everything, and IT SHOULD WORK. Don't forget to run the tank at only partially open not full open.

So.. I did get it working. But not for long. :( took a week off for a brain break from the thing. Gonna try and look into maybe the seals in the regulator. One might be faulty. Or the whole regulator itself. *sigh* Can you believe they are still selling these dang things in store!? They are so faulty after one season!

@@vanessaadney6125 I am also surprised that there are very limited parts available for these too. I do not like mosquitoes, but these m-magnets are not cheap, they should work better and last longer. Keep up the good fight and let us know if you get it working and what was your fix. I am on my third propane tank since i got mine going.

It can really be puzzling and maddening.

I have had squirrels chew on my wires before in the past and currently. Pest could have something to do with it. I have heard that they are making new wiring with a different blend of plastic-rubber sheathing that pest like to shew on. Just throwing out ideas.

My deck belt is 101.5 inches, but if you ever need a part do this. There should be a decal by the battery under the seat on the body of your mower that has the exact model number (mine is 917.28922). Get on your computer and go to the ereplacementparts.com web site and enter your model number in the search window. It should bring up your mower's parts breakdown. From there you can find the part you're looking for on the mower diagrams with a description and part number. It makes it really easy to order from them or amazon.com. I have ordered mower decks from them along with all the other parts I use. Hope this helps.
