No need to apologize for the multitude of posts, Ricky; it takes a learning curve for newbies to discover and become comfortable with the nuances of this superior discussion website. We all go through the 'trial by Fire'
But they should all be posted in and added to the original thread to keep the subject contained, readily searchable & easily readable, particularity as they are all about the same vacuum. Since and as a paid member you have the editing option to delete anything you post (within a 6 hour window), you should copy (move)all the info into your original thread from the extra threads, then delete the extraneous threads. You see, this discussion site is not run the same as a Twitter or Facebook account, where scattershot comments simply pile up one after the other in a long stream of short, annoying and virtually undecipherable babble dribbling down your visual interface. Here, we start a subject and follow through on in single thread so that all related information and comment posts remain focused on the original thread heading, as in your case, the Silverado. Concave carbon brush ends are the norm, they are the result of 'dressing down' brand new carbons to match the contour of the armature they contact. There are techniques for this dressing but I have always just installed new carbons and let the revolution of the running motor do the 'lathing'. Of course this initially creates a great deal of carbon dust in the exhaust stream so I do not change the after-motor filter until the deed is done. Or run in the new brushes without an after filter, outside. Dave |
