Labour are in now. It will probably be based on colour.

Duck Oil for me. I used to use graphite powder, but I think I used to overdo it and it went sludgy.

The biggly half?

Which half?

We forgive you Diane Abbott!

No word yet. Still stuck I reckon.

Got a link mate?

Thanks. I haven’t got a pressure gauge. I cut trees down for a living.

Joking. As Dan says, just be honest. Pretty sure they’ll check if you make a claim. Cameron at Trust is the man to talk to. He understood my needs as pretty much a one man band who uses freelancers. We had a few differences of opinion, but he sorted them. Worth calling him direct Bill. He seemed to understand that most of my jobs weren’t crane dismantles over Ferrari garages.

I just said ‘Yes’ to everything and got a great deal!

Anyone who thinks electric cars are the way forward is deluded beyond belief. As in so deluded they can’t understand reasonable arguments.

It’s an old workhorse mate, that in 106,0000 miles has tipped many, many totally illegal loads. Of course i’ll update, good or bad. You should know that Conor. Arbtalk wouldn’t be the source of information it is without the cum-shot, so to speak.
-
The manufacturing takes place abroad Conor, so there is no environmental impact on us. You idiot.

Surrey Police have issued this picture of the getaway vehicle.

Update. Checked leads and terminals as best I could, nothing obvious. Tried to tip with 2 lads lifting, no way. Eventually got the body up with the loader, but there was no pressure in the ram at all. The body literally dropped straight down as soon as I dropped the loader head. Booked in with the hydraulic boys on Thursday morning.

Seems strange how it’s just died slowly if it’s dodgy connections though. You’d think it would just be YES or NO. What’s the easiest way of getting the tipper up to get to the pump?
-
No manual pump. LED tipper control in the cab seems to think everything is fine. I’ll try and get to the terminals later Mick, be a pig of a job from underneath.
-
Thanks Gareth. Do you think I can discount battery issues on the fact that the truck starts fine and there is obviously still power getting to the pump somehow? New pump isn’t something I’d take on myself. There are some hydraulic boys just up the road from me who are meant to be pretty good.

My venerable old 06 Transit has a problem. It has been getting really sluggish to tip over the last week or so, although it seems fine on the down cycle. I checked the hydraulic oil level a few days ago and it seemed fine. This morning I tried to tip it (empty) so I could check the battery connections etc., but it would only tip a couple of inches. There is power getting there, but seemingly not enough. Where should I start looking? Twin batteries under drivers seat. The truck starts no problem. The problem now of course is that I can’t get underneath the body to check anything over.

It’s not very well written is it?

Aye, they’ve got some way to go until they work themselves to the bone.
