Well best of luck!!! Personally I don't think it is that complicated, I find working on my wife's Aircooled Beetle-based Porsche 356a Speedster replica far more of a pain. But then it is what you are used to. I did have a BMW once, an early...

Thank you so much for these explanations! Well, I'll simply put everything back together and not attempt this repair. And drive on. I do have the skills, but I don't have the time... or the desire! I'm used to working on BMWs or VWs. And I've...

Do not remove the flange yet. As I said above, you need to test the play (jeu) between the pinion and the crown wheel. (pignon et couronne). So it would be better to drain the oil out of the differential holding part of the rear axle. Slide the...

Yep. Problem is we dun't use them at wuk. So eye can't borrow them.

You can open a normal one with the point of a knife or similar, at least a few times.

Bet they love it when you return them in two pieces!!🤣🤣

yup, or simply a piece of twisted wire, which, OK, you have to replace from time to time. I think you might be able to get those ties from a gardening place.

Haven't I seen cable ties with a release tab on em? Makes em reusable..

It took them long enough to realise that :p

6.6mm ov rain since last nite. Weren't eggspecting it. We is now back up to 1100L. Nuvva 50L and we be spillin over.

Simular problem ere. Eye has to cut and replace the tie wrap when eye want to take me burd feeder down, to clean it.

Mornin Fresher today Nothing planned, lazy Sunday Stay happy all 🙂

A crow keeps pulling my bird feeder off the stand so it can get all the spilt seeds, I'll need to cable tie it on but then its a bugger to fill. I dont want to bend the stand as it will crack all the coating. Got a squiggle coming to it, used to...

Your neebs must love you!! Tis illegal to do that on a Sunday here. You can only mow your lawn for a coupla hours in the morning. ;)

Morning all, tis very quiet here but thats about to change as the grinder is coming out :D Off to tackle the other inner wing, the rain set me back yesterday.

I'm sitting in the shade, the sun isn't even really shining but it is so humid, and I am leaking so much that I have decided to go in and sit with a fan about metre from me. We need yet another storm or some rain.

Morning All. :D A reasonable day here it seems, although a tad "brisk". :) Soon be Christmas eh? (158 days). Have a great day! :D

Fanks to advice onner nuvva fred on ere eye has unset me trap and put bait in and around it. Left over stake fat and a bit ov meat. Tis all eye have. Theory is to get kev used to going in said trap. Then later on he'll go in when it's set, but...

Ferrabout the last 6 weeks they have changed to realising I'm full ov nuts and drop them where ever eye goes.

Putting polish on a surface then spreading it evenly, maybe letting it dry if it is that sort, then buffing it, cannot harm the surface. But using polishes that contain cutting compounds to remove oxidisation could eventually cut through the top...

Peeps tend not to wash, polish the roof as much as the bonnet. Eye does both on ma ippo.

Doubtless you will be round there with a big trailer soon to put her out of her misery, poor thing! ;)
