  1. i have just purchased a clutch kit for my discovery 300tdi its a valeo kit my question is what side of the plate faces the flywheel as there is no marking on it,one side is reasonably flush and the other sticks out a little any help please chris.
  2. its probably a bit late now but i use a filter strap to hold the pulley to stop it turning hope this helps chris.
  3. if you were closer i have a few guns here you could have one and some 400g cartridges let me know if you get down this way,chris.
  4. yes and no it oviously works better when your moving as its spinning but failing that option go for one of the electric powered roof vents thay work either direction suck/blow have a look at some pictures of the police dog vans most have these fitted,chris.
  5. i fitted one in a transit roof i think it was a 3 inch hole drilled a hole and cut it out with a jigsaw there is three small boltholes iirc quite an easy installation chris
  6. i got so peed off trying to seat the beads and being scared to use the butane idea i bought a cheetah beadseater ok a lot of money but its the best thing ive bought for a long time also made a bead breaker from some 2x2 box section and a bottle jack saves a lot of hammering swearing,chris.
  7. i cant say ive ever seen a smaller cartridge other than a 400g one but im not saying there aint someone may know chris.
  8. hi nigel can i have 1x xl hoodie and 2x xl t shirts thanks chris
  9. if its airtight and you block the intake the engine will starve of oxygen and will stop you can then listen for hissing as it draws air in any leaks if it doesnt stop its not water tight

  12. we have these fitted on some of our tracked excavators thay do work and are quite effective along with other imobilisers
  13. i agree with you i had oxygen and acetylene from boc ive taken back the acectylene and im now using propane for cutting i looked at air products as a supplier but didnt seem to work out any cheaper like you said the fixed charge for collection is a p take,but i suppose there aint any company who can compete with boc ive been a customer with boc for 22 years but i keep looking for another supplier,chris.
  14. looking at the picture is that an osf if it is then it looks like a knife cut as there is no other marking or dont appear to be chris.
  15. after swearing ratchet straps etc i eventually went out and bought a cheetah bead seater i know its a lot of money but i think its money well spent changed 2 tyres today a lot easier ive also made a bead breaker using a bottle jack and its a lot easier,has anyone got a cheetah and what is the average charging pressure for 235/85/16 tyres thanks chris
  16. not trying to tell you how to suck eggs but give them a covering of grease/vaseline will keep out the water and slow down the rusting,chris.

  20. probably about 20 years thinking i was being clever i used a pair of burning goggles for welding not a good idea i know but, i could see to arc etc until that night like its been said its like the end of the world sand in your eyes, its worse than being sprayed with cs spray. i think one time the hospital or nhs direct said olive oil would ease it but ive bought a self darkening visor now and havent had a does for a while.chris.
  21. have you googled the name or try facebook hth
