  1. My Isuzu did the same changed scv that sorted it. I bought one off eBay get the number off fuel pump and get the corresponding one was about £70. Garage took an hour to change it.
  2. Just When you think no one else can go in 2016, wham. Good news, wake us at club tropicana, Drinks are free!
  3. If its anything like here then any Norwegian gardener that owns a claw hammer, has a box of staples and has splashed out on a set of wire stretchers will now be giving themselves the self titled fencing contractor spiel, Charging a stupifyingly high rate for something they have absolutely no qualifications for
  4. this happened around our area in the late 70s early 80s, The driver had loaded the machine before knocking off for the night, someone else had gone onto the machine between him knocking off and starting next morning and left the jib sticking up , the driver was still told to, DCM .afterwards.
  5. Unfortunately have a silverline, never had any issues and is about 6 years old bought for £30.
  6. of course there should be no reason for poor work, the point I was trying to make, is accreditation in fencing,livestock fencing in particular is negligible,
  7. I would ask, do you have any accreditation in fencing? The answer is no, no one has there is none, two people may vary widely on their idea of good work, Now I'm not doubting that the work done originally was poor, or that your work will be to a satisfactory or high standard, But I've a real bee in my bonnet about this, absolutely anyone can call themselves a fencer, with no accreditation, no qualification, no experience, the only pre requisite is to own or have access to wire stretchers, have a maul hammer, and a bucket of staples to use up, I know fencers who do things differently to me, now some of them I class as poor work some good, some excellent, but not one has any kind of accreditation. I think it's all about opinion I'm afraid. I mean I'm a fencer, and own a chainsaw, could I call myself a chainsaw operator
  8. I'm surprised the fa, going for him, after the scandal of allardyce being involved in alleged illegal payments, I would expect the press to.rake it up.again, I have to say I wouldn't be surprised to learn that, allardyce, redknapp, venables, and of course Ferguson were all.at it.
  9. If grazing put on sheep cattle.
  10. Mensuration? Thats women's stuff, better off keeping out of that:biggrin:

    This is fantastic, get it right up Rio Ferdinand the lack of respect he showed them, Come on Iceland keep it up, Poor tyldsley.
  18. I have noticed when it spins t her is a slight wobble, as if it's not tight but it is!
  19. I worked the Oregon, head on my florabest yesterday is it just my strimmer head or is there a lot of vibration when it's on.
  20. The other issue with clipex is you have to use clipex net, and there is no doubt that clipex all use this fact in their prices. Staplelok, can use standard rylock, any manufacturer. Ill be honest, I'm very sceptical of clipex, I've never denied that , If it's so good why have they not converted all landowners to it, I believe it has a place, on Heather hills, and the like, but it's the fact it's not interchangeable to other manufacturers that for me is a draw back.
  21. Bob, is it not the shortage of timber that is behind the forced fast growing of timber
  22. The problem is timber grown too fast, and the emphasis on that Sitka spruce $h!t
  23. The issue many have with round posts is the staples falling out when posts dry and split, I work barbed staples and I haven't found that to be an issue since. Some of the round posts I get in a pack are real monsters some more on the spindly side, but usually make sure any spindly ones are either in a position with minimal pressure, or have a thicker one each side.
  24. I've a customer who has just changed policy to using gangridge creopost strainers, and normal.if,4 posts, His thinking is the strainers have a 60 year lifespan and as long as they stay sound he is willing to sacrifice normal.posts, as long as strainers stay sound the integrity of the fence should remain high.
