5 and 6 are supposed to light a lickle LED light or summat, which is there but don't work as far as I can tell. But I don't need it. ;)

Well done! Tis all a mite yukky under there, of course! A bit of grease I am sure will be applied in due course!!

Had a chance to get under the disco and see what was going on, and thanks to Discool and the pic posted above 👍 I located the problem. The cable selector FTC566 had snapped at the end near the gearbox. Also the lever that attached to the...

Mornin all. Storm gone, sun's out. Not hot yet. Gang oot tut neebs for lunch/dins. I think I'll have a shower before that, well, it is on the calendar!! 🤣 ;) Have a good day all!!!:):):)

Dunt drink it.

Morning All. :D Wow, what a different day, cool & overcast. Yesterday evening there wasn't a cloud in the sky. :) Family arriving for tomorrow's funeral later. :) Have a good day. :D

Objection. Reported ----

Friday the defender failed the mot due to the break fluid having to much moisture in it over here thay insert a probe in the reservoir for a reading, I should've known better ! But all sorted now so back tomorrow, also cleaned all the sensors...

Night all. :)

There are 5 zones at 10 amps and one the lounge-diner the biggest room at 20 amps if you look at the consumer unit. But these are then subdivided, for example, the guest wing has 3 zones, 2 bedrooms and the night hall and the bathroom. I used...

Well it is very dark outside so I had better put the hens to bed!

Soz, thinking about it, 1 and 2 but 2 is where you would expect 3 to be.

Ah you see information is king :). So all it’s doing is switching a relay somewhere else that takes the load for the floor element. Why I didn’t think of that when you said you were gonna connect the load across a bimetallic switch :vb-groan2:. J

Dottir has sent me pics of W getting outside some wine and stuff in their garden. She now has much better weather than me!!!

If you look back at the diag 3 and 2 have been swopped over for some bonkers reason which is why I used a multimeter to make sense of it all. Basically power goes from 1 to the bimetallic stat. When it closes,i.e. calls for power it connects to...

Speaking from very recent experience, if an suto box runs for any petiod of time with less than the normal amount of fluid in it, it will soon be curtains for the box. And mine had less of a hard time than the OP's one did.

Be Surprised if it makes it the whole way

Hes driving it there and scraping it why bother??? J

That’s interesting, definitely gave me an idea there.. That does look good too! cheers.

Breakers should have what you need.

Once you move away from standard you are in the world of "specials" so you have to think A bit differently and be prepared to fabricate stuff. I started with a cheap 2nd hand arc welding set up. You may possibly have to think about using...

Will get on that and have a look, cheers!

To find advert s for them get a copy of Which Kit or another magazine like it. They are a mine of information.

Righto, I’ll have a look about then, cheers!

Glad to hear that, not just me then! :)

Once you are on a project use kit car and special suppliers like Europa. Doesn't have to be race or rally as you don't have to reach their standards.

Put tank in same place. Use the D2 so keeps it all standard. Fuel cap.look at the race car/marine type these are small(make sure a diesel nozzle will fit) & this would mount under the tray back There has been a tray back build on here (Off for...

Don't worry about over thinking things. It is normal when you have a project. I reworked and made about 4versions of the spare wheel mount for a kit car and I am still not happy with it.

Oops, a D1 tank would only suit a D1 engine.
