Hi there

This company is no longer trading

The tube you talk about is an alcohol thermometer tube, the best option I can think of is to find another thermometer with the same graduations and the same length tube and change it to your old one

Hope this helps

Beer system won't pour properly

Most of the time this reason is the beer temp and co2 is not right. first you dont go buy box temp but need to get beer temp. first make sure you have a calibrated thermometer. check your thermometer by mixing up a glass of ice and water let it stand a couple Min to achieve 32deg. put thermometer in water let stand 2 min to make sure it reads 32 deg. now draw a couple of glasses of beer in the same cup pour each in a pitcher. now draw a 3rd glass of beer in the same glass put the thermometer in it you wont the beer at 38 deg if to cold turn your box thermostat up or if to hot turn your box thermostat down to achieve a 38 deg beer. now it is time to check the CO2 pressure, you wont it at 12 psi. first drink a couple glasses with your friends this will let your keg pressure equalize. Now it is time to do a test poor. If the faucet gives a spurt of foam when you open it or the beer runs foamy-clear-foamy-clear than the pressure is too low, bump the pressure up 2 LB and let the pressure equalize a few min. If the beer runs to fast, turn off the co2 at the shut off where the tubing connects to the regulator (Always turn off the shut off when adjusting the regulator). Release some pressure from the keg by pulling the pressure relief valve on the keg coupler. Drop the co2 pressure 2 lbs. Turn the co2 line back on and let the pressure equalize. Often you can tell if the pressure is too low by looking at the beer line at where it connects at the keg coupler. If you see bubbles rising up the beer line from the coupler the pressure is to low or the seal on the keg or coupler is bad. Over many years of trouble shooting 3/16" bore shanks and fittings can cause a burst effect releasing carbonation from the liquid. The beer flow looks good but you end up with a glass half full of beer and half foam. For this reason 1/4" bore shanks and fittings should always used on the liquid side.

Bubble gone dry on my Laser Tec LM013N. Sears PartsDirect doesn't list any Item# 00948251000 Mfr. Model# LM013N Any ideas where I can get a bubble cartridge to replace the dry one?

The ones I used were 9.5mm X 25mm Acrylic Tube Bubble Spirit Level Vial. Thats ~ 3/8" x 1" Cost a few dollars including shipping. Carefully peel back the warning stickers, take out the 4 screws, pry the broken one out, clean up the old epoxy, epoxy the new one in and put back together. The whole operation takes less than 6 minutes assuming that you use 5 min epoxy to reset the new bubbles.

Dear FixYa, When air is pumped into the cuff of a blood pressure monitor, how is the mecury forced up the glass tube? Is there a plunger or piston that pushes the mercury. Thank you, patin2010.

There is no piston or plunger, as you would no it. It's the air pressure, when the bulb is squeezed that raises the mercury. When the valve on the bulb is released, it it releases the air pressure and the mercury falls.

What's really amazing is that you still have one of these old blood pressure monitors. They were outlawed in most countries 10 years ago, due to the high concentration of mercury in the tube. If for some reason the glass tube, that holds the mercury was broken or it leaked, you don't want to be standing around it. It's the same reason mercury filled thermometers are no longer manufactured or sold.

Hi the bubbles have stopped working on the right side, what can i do to resolve ?

If both bubble tubes has stopped working on one side then the problem is more likely to be a power issue. Somehow the power is not getting to the tube heaters. On the Wurlitzer OMT there is a small module on the inside of the main door that distributes the power to the various bubble tubes and the page turner (CD models). If the plug is loose or the wire is broken then that could cause one side to be off.

The glasses and cups have specks in them that don't rinse out. The soap dish doesn't clean out. I have take all the arms apart and cleaned them. There is no build up. We live on a lake and use filtered...

Maybe try rinse aid like jet dry, some people forget to keep the rinse aid filled up or the rinse aid nozzle gets a encrustation build up from the rinse aid.
Also check your water for hardness, you may need to use a water softener to remove hardness, filter alone will not remove hard water.
One way to test for hard water is with a test tube or something like it and add 2 drops of washing up liquid, and shake the water and soap and see if you have a lot of bubbles or if the bubbles disappear quickly, if there is a lack of bubbles you probably have hard water and may need the mentioned water softener.
