inStop telling new folks to clean focus rings with lighter fluid
...and here I was feeling proud of myself for using a little alcohol wipe on mine last week. Guess I can at least say I never dunked a whole lens in lighter fluid like it was a fryer basket. But yeah, naphtha or a dry brush is the way, that stuff melts the grease right out and leaves you with a squeaky ring that feels awful. Watched a buddy do the same thing to a Helios and he spent a month trying to regrease it with some random tube from the hardware store. Poor guy never got that smooth click back.

inDropped $1,200 on a tuner and headers in one weekend, then threw a check engine light at 6am Monday

My buddy says Factorio feels like his calm little factory routine too.

inA customer's 1987 diesel truck taught me something about patience
Did he ever explain why he never just swapped the starter, or was it one of those things where the truck only ever got fixed when it truly broke? Guys like that seem to know the line between a quirk and a real problem better than any shop does.
