Oxygen and Acetylene is ideal but MAP GAS or Propane can be used. They just take longer to get red. Getting the part hot will expand the metal but turning the threaded area red will dissolve rust build up. Don't try to spin the part immediately. With two pairs of large pipe wrenches or two large vice grips. Rock the threads back and forth repeatedly. 6-8x will usually work the rust away and allow the tie rod to be spun off. Cranking and turning the tie rod in one direction sometimes causes the rust to build up and seize the threads again. Because of tolerances you may need to wait for the part to cool down before the threads will start to move. Hope this helps. Good Luck.
you need to go to your local auto parts store and see if you rent or borrow a tie rod removal tool. they look like a large fork,you place the tool in between the parts and hit the end of the tool with a large hammer do mallet to pry the parts apart.
I have the same problem. The water riser pipe at the back right corner of the machine leaks where the pipe goes through the stainless steel wall of the machine at the top, you can see the end of the pipe from inside the machine as a grey threaded plastic nut. The water runs down the back and collects in the bottom. This only happens when the water is being pumped into the machine to circulate through the washer as the water is under pressure.
The breaker will trip when a leakage to earth or a short circuit is detected caused by the water, my machine has actually been flashing over in one place by the short curcuit caused from the water, the flash over vapourises the water so that when the breaker is reset the machine runs for a while longer before doing the same thing.
The pipe and/or seal needs to be replaced to stop the leak and then it should be ok again. However if water ingress has been a problem for some time other components may be affected. Best have it checked by a pro if this is the case.
Jack up the front of the vehicle remove the wheel. Put a jack stand or similar under the side of the vehicle , dont just rely on the jack to hold it up. remove the split pin from the nut on the joint. Crack off the locking nut from the tie rod to the end. Dont undo it just back it off less than 1/4 turn. Undo the nut that the split pin came out of. Leave it on a couple of threads. place a rod,bar or lever of some kind to put pressure on the tie rod end away from its position . The end has a tapered fit where you have undone the nut. Hit the side of the steering arm that the rod end goes through with a hammer. You will need to hit it quite hard a few times ,this will jar the tie rod out of the taper. Take the nut right off then unscrew the rod end from the tie rod. Place the new and old tierod end together to make sure they are identicle. screw the new joint onto the tie rod to the same position the old one was. place the tapered end through the steering arm. tighten the nut then fit the new split pin. Tighten the lock nut on the tie rod to the rod end. If it is a greasable joint grease it with a grease gun. You may wish to have a front wheel alignment done. Replace the wheel and let the vehicle down. Happy motoring. If this has been usefull Please Vote Jeff
First is water coming into the location and is the valve to the dishwasher open? Next check if the intake hose is bent or squashed. Release the kink blocking water flow.
There is a filter in the intake hose that can get blocked by debris. Turn off the water (at the supply valve) then disconnect the intake hose. Clean the filter. Reconnect the hose and turn the water back on. Check for leaks.
you need a tool that is like a rod which is threaded on one end and has a flat head on the other.they come in different length it goes through the rotor shaft and screwed into engine shaft using a screwdriver then you have to tap the end of rotor shaft with a desired thread pitch and use a bolt to drive into rod .
The float better be inside the tub, at the bottom, it usually only travels a couple of inches up and down... you may have a protective cover in the way of it.
