did the oil change as the roofing job lined up was a no no in this wind :doh:.
when i took the cap off the rotery filter noticed the bolt on the engine side of it was a tad loose :rolleyes:, when i put it all back together bastid would'nt tighten at all :mad: turned out the fookin numpty who did it before i had the landy must have lost 1 of them bolts and replaced it with a normal M6 bolt (not the same thread :mad:).

cut the head off a m6 bolt and filled up the threaded hole with chemical metal then threaded it into it , left it for a hour then cleaned off the dross fitted the cap and tightened a nut down. have'nt done it up murder tight but does'nt need to be it has a O ring to seal it (wont be as slack as it was before and it did'nt leak for over a year.
