Maintenance & Repairs - November 2006

I was sending potato peels to their reward when my garbage disposal stopped draining. I know the blades still move because I used a wooden spoon in the GD while it was turned on. The blades hit the spoon. I have used drain declogger with no luck. I also disconnected the hose leading from the GD and drained it, but still it does not work. I have used hot water. I even pushed the red button on the bottom of the GD. The only thing I did not do was disconnect the other end of the hose.

The people I bought my house from turned it off and it would be nice to have on a night everything seems to be hooked up but I am not sure if there is a switch inside it somewhere that I don't know about...

I have white deposits that form, I think it is mostly from my hot water line, they are soft, opaque white crystals that eventually block the faucet screens, they are easily washed out when I take out the screen, and they have a soft soapy feel to them. Anyone have an idea what these are and how to prevent them.

I have a GE XL44 Gas range. The ignition spark for one of the burners does not work (spark). How do you fix this problem? Is it just the replacement of an electrical part or do I have to mess around with the gas line? Any type of advise is greatly appreciated.

of course its thanksgiving and my boiler isnt working. i know a little bit about how they work but cant figure this one out on my own. i was wondering if the fuel burning unit was gravity fed or if it pumped the oil in? i tried to hit the reset button and prime the line but when i crack open the bleeder nothing comes out (neither air nor oil). i was wondering if it could be a blockage in the line or if the pump for the fuel isnt working? any other info needed just ask. thanks for the help ahead of time.
