The boiler was locked out, the pressure was almost nil. I re-pressurised it to 1 bar and there was a green light. But in an hour, the pressure reached to 2.1 bar. Is that normal? On searching web its showing anything between 1 bar and 2.5 bar is normal.

Mc Culloch eager Beaver Super 2318. It has an 18 inch blade. I was looking online for instructions on two things.

1) how to change the blade

2) the oil-gas ratio. (the gas cap says oil-gas fill)

Can anyone link me to some instructions online?

They always end up in a tight ball so the center doesnt get dry.

I mean, obviously I just keep opening the door, pulling everything out, and putting it back in every fifteen minutes or so.. but is there something better?

My mother gave me her dining room furniture. It's stored in my garage and it smells like cigarette smoke. I'm worried once I move it into the house, the house will smell like stale cigarette smoke. No one smokes in my house. Will it always smell like smoke?

I live in an apartment here and I am getting sick of all this crap from other people's cooking. It's an older building and they won't look into it.
I read HEPA is a better purifier but I don't know if it would stop smells from coming in my front door... it is shut so don't give me stupid stuff about shut your door, just too old of a building (renovation they are doing doesn't help).
Smells only hit me in the living room/dining room... about 350 sq ft I need to protect from smells.
Will a HEPA do this?
