Re: Cooking the spark plugs

When I replaced the starter ring on my Renault 5 I heated it up in the oven to expand it in order to fit it ! I have also heated spark plugs on the Rayburn for my ailing two stroke garden impliments.

Re: Copper Sealed Pop Rivets

Googled it and quite a few suppliers of copper sealed pop rivets came up . Sometime misleading as although they claim to be stockists —— they are not !!!!!

Re: Coolant leak at front of engine

Well done , removing ( or changing ) the water pump makes replacing the by-pass hose much easier . When I changed my water pump / by- pas hose the stub pipe from the head was badly worn .
Currently surviving but for how long 🤔

Re: Almond Green Traveller EAF234B

The original reg. quoted was wrong as the poster corrected . The car is showing on the Gov. site and appears to be alive and well.

Re: Vintage Car Radio

Horace Batchelor - The Infra Draw Method . One of the most recognised voices and ‘ adverts ‘ on Radio Luxembourg during the 50s and 60s. Football pool forecasting ! I’m guessing you are not of the age where you listened to Luxembourg .
Well done with the radio ( or should it be wireless ).

Re: Vintage Car Radio

Have you tried searching Google for the radio. Loads of info there and maybe ( just maybe ) the info you need .

Re: Rear door rubber

The cover scenario is very odd . Be good to hear what the problem is/was and the solution.

Re: Rear door rubber

Had a slight problem replacing my rocker cover due to the proximity of the heater tap. Took a bit of ‘ wiggling ‘ ( technical term ) but it popped in OK .

Re: Cylinder head is coming off!

WD40 is a water dispersant - not a release oil . Try Plus Gas or any release agent . Appreciate its what you had to hand .

Re: Who's had the Covid vaccine? Anyone going to refuse it?

My wife and I have both had our first ‘ jab ‘ at our local GPs ( Bridgnorth ) . No effects , we didn’t even feel the injection 👍😀

Re: radiator bottom hose connection weeping

I think the best ( and safest ) thing to do is fit a new hose and clips .
