  1. happened to me 20 years ago just got my mates big block chevy running when the top hose split.

    sprayed me on my arm and sholder soaked my boilersuit. would have been ok but i put my hand on my arm as i went outside when i got the suit off had a bright red arm with blisters where my hand had been.

    we fixed the hose then got her running again.then the oil pressure line split spraying oil over the headers which caught fire, lucky i had my wet overalls handy.

    good luck and use the cream

    the winch will pull a house down

  3. we use the new 1/2" snapon guns at work no trouble with m20 bolts and sized 3/4 whitworth

    they can tighten well past 250nm and they last most of the shift on one charge approx 40+ bolts on and off

    and they can get the wheel nuts off my transit without the big bar.

    lots of money but worth it

  4. also the right size crimps for the cable.

    when i do any wiring i solder all my joints and use non insulated crimps.

    and use the correct crimper, and then solder them and sleeve with glue lined heatshrink.

    i also use loom tape, split conduit and normal 20mm/25mm conduit with glands to protect

    the cables.

    nothing worse than a load of blue crimps used for all sizes of cable. faults just waiting to happen
