Maintenance & Repairs - August 2006

I have a 10,000 gallon above ground pool that i am sick of dealing with. It is immpossible to get clean as the previous owners wre morons. We have tried everything. I just want to frain it and scrub the hell outta it and refill. I don't care about the time to refill or the water bill. My question is I live in a little town with houses all around me. If I just drain it in my yard I will wash out the neighbors yard. Who do I call to pump it out?

Got it free so can't complain there. Replaced Battery and rear tires. Have lubricated all necessary locations. The blades are finally turning, but the mower won't "GO". When put into gear it just sits there. No reverse, forward, anything. Any suggestions? Can't find a manual for it. Maybe new belt? Please, desperate here... Thanks

It's a push mower with a Tecumseh engine and the crank shaft seems to be OK. It's the part of the shaft that extends from the bottom of the engine (the blade is bolted to it) that's bent. I've been able to straighten it quite a bit, but I've heard that it might be dangerous to use the mower once that shaft has been bent. Safe or unsafe? Any advice appreciated!

the shower has 2 knobs - one each for cold/hot water. I was able to take of the plastic handle but need to know how to disassemble the rest of it to get the "stem" off - I suspect a leaky washer, but not sure if I need specific tools for this disassembly.

I'm considering getting a radiant barrier and want some feedback as to how energy efficient it's made your home, how much more efficiently your A/C works, etc.
I'd appreciate any info you can provide!

I just bought a 8-room 1,788 square foot colonial house that has old wiring and fuses in it. The inspector said I need to update the wiring and replace the fuse boxes with breaker switches. Before I call an electrician, I would like to have a ballpark figure on about how much this should cost. Any homeowners who have been through this, please help. Thank you.

My dishwasher, disposal and stove all need to be replaced. I have never owned a manufactured home before and I don't know if I can just buy from a store like Lowes or if I have to go through a manufactured home dealer.

While raising the hard top of our Dutchman popup camper we forgot to open the one tie down and started cranking the top up. When it got to a certain point, the cable for the corner that we forgot to open made a loud pop. The cable that makes that corner go up broke. How do you go about fixing this problem. Does anyone have a schematic for repair?
