    Covid-19

    I know 2 people who caught after having the first Pfizer vaccine . It was said that their symptoms would have been a lot more severe had they not had the first part of the vaccine .
  6. Hey Will . Nicely done bud . When you drop a big heavy stick like that in a domestic situation do you check for underground utility's etc ?
  7. Could be a Fern leaved beech ?
  8. Left my 372 out in the rain and sitting on its side ( starter cover upper most ) . Never used it again that day . Went to start it a couple of days later and pulled the rope and the chain went round . Plenty of WD40 around the clutch bearing and it freed up . Don't leave them on their side !
  9. All depends on the choice of tires . Ice is winter tires only . Mud terrains are no good on ice . Also if you have diff lock as well as high and low 4wd .
  10. The fuel went in the bike . Its an old army trick ! 👍
  11. There was a Shell 5 star pump in our village when I was a nipper . Used to put it in my Royal Enfield Constellation coz I thought it was best .
  12. Yep and your cooker had the flat " twin and earth " going into the wall through a ceramic cover .
  13. 15amp round pin . ( old money ) 😁
  14. PM Steve .
  15. Is that a kinda trick ? Nose surning ? 🙂
  16. Yep I used to get the 1/3rd of a pint . We all had straws with ours and it was who could make the most noise when you got near the bottom . 😁
  17. No DPF issues . There is a matrix thing in the exhaust but I think its a CAT . With mine I blanked off the EGR valve . Change the oil and filter every 4K ( it says 6K ) . grease the lock stops now and then ( stops that creaking noise on full lock going over a bump ) Known faults were a bad batch of con rod bolts on early engines . No 3 cylinder usually , the bolt would fail and put the rod through the side . Mine was an 05 and never had this happen . Nissan replaced engines that did do this but it was very early ones . That one in the advert probably would not be affected . I thought it was a good truck . About 135HP I seem to remember so under stressed .
  18. Looks very good . My one of those gave me no trouble at all .
  19. Sorted . Thanks 👍
  20. Yea . One of the longest running threads ever in the world Ahmen X 10 ! 😀
  21. Off hand I don't know the configuration of the two chains but if one of them has those " safety " links , you know the little bit that rides up before the raker then sometimes the larger file is a bit snug when you set at the correct angle . At the end of the day both files will sharpen up ok if you can fit them in .
  22. I remember him telling me when Sonia died some of her side of the family turned against him . It was horrible .
  23. Jon , bless him 👍
  24. Its oil change and filter in my book that cuts it . if you do this at recommended intervals or less it can go on for a long time . My D22 Navara recommended every 6K so I did it every 4K . My D40 Navara recommends every 12K so I do it every 10K . Obviously you have to study other stuff but oil and filter is the main one for me .
  25. You are a very reasonable , fair , positive and determined person Sam . It will come to you bud . I know it . 👍
