No, once the codes are erased they are gone, until the problem happens again and sets the codes again. Just keep driving the vehicle, if the cat is bad the codes will come back.

Complaining about how much money a person is making seems to be a common thing at every job I worked at. It seems like a lot of people are just not happy with their lives, rather than doing something...

Glad to have you join us, there is a wealth of knowledge here. Cast is just about all I load in hand guns.

We put automatic tank drains - spitter - on the bottom of our tanks. The are electrically operated and open every 45 minutes to let excess moisture out. The are plugged into timers so they only...

Most of the ones I got at that price have been used. Now we get to pay the higher price or quit reloading - ain't gonna happen.

Clean shot should work for both. I use 4.0 grains of in for 200 lead SWC in a 45 ACP, nice soft mid range load.
For mouse fart loads, I put 2.0 grains in a 357 Mag or 38 special with a 158 grain...

For the most part they work pretty well. I bought my 550b well used, so most of the problems I had were due to worn parts. I would gladly upgrade.
Molds are made a few thousands oversize, as the molten metal cools is shrinks some, this allows it to fallout of the mold. The castings are then pushed through a size die to get them the correct...

Any day we learn something is a good day. Enjoy the process.

Glad you got it figured out. I do not think that changing the lube made any difference. I have used, probably, a dozen different types of lube without issues.

It is better to use 2 dies, one to seat and the other to crimp. Once the crimp dies is set, it should not need adjusting again. Only need to change the seat die depending on the bullet being used.

I made a controller using a dimmer switch and a wall outlet mounted in a handy box. Works pretty well.

Ebay has a couple listed. One is bid up to $305.00, the other is listed at $400.00.

Great idea, good looking brass. Enjoy reloading and shooting them.

The purists say that flat base bullets are the best. Myself, I cannot tell the difference when shooting them. They do fall out of molds better and are easier to reload. They are all I cast and use....

Interesting the different perspectives. I have a 550 & 650. Once the tool heads are set, it is pretty fast to change calibers on the 550. I prefer to run at least 100 at a time, but do use it for...
Never used them, but it is my understanding they can be used in straight wall paper or plastic hulls, such as Federal, Fiocchi or others. Lookup info for Claybuster CB311812AR wads.

I am going assume the code starts with P230 and has another number behind the 0. If so, it is related to an ignition system problem. The last number will give further diagnostic information. Do not...
Unique is a pretty forgiving powder, it is cleaner at near max loads. Grab your favorite reloading manual and see what it says. I have used plenty of Unique, but generally use 125 grain lead bullets....

Are you saying that with the compressor running the high and low sides were 80PSI? If so, either the compressor is not pumping or the orifice tube is damaged - has a hole in it, it is not restricting...

These were older charge bars, each bar would only throw one charge of shot and one of powder. The bars with interchangeable bushings did not come out until later.

I use a brass picker, it saves the back from bending over. A person is never going to get all their brass, loosing some is part of the game.

By plug, do you mean the expander die? If so, try putting just a little bit of bullet lube on the expander portion, or some kind of wax. It will need reapplied frequently. I have also wiped the sides...

Spraying Horniday One Shot on the cases will make things easier. I generally run pistol cases dry, but to each their own. I prefer Dillon dies, have had less problems with them than any others....
