    Sorry for ya Shit news gobbypunk !!!!! Where are you based? Post as much info as you can, tell tale marks on any equipment, any pics you have of anything, load it all up, people will keep their eyes open for ya! Obviously its gona be raw and highly frustrating for ya, but on here is the ideal place to “tell any tales” of any of your gear. Social media and forums seem to out rank the police these days. Try make it count whilst its all fresh and new!
  2. Can you post some pics of casing, flywheel etc individually and then next to each other? Sometimes helps to see the conflicting parties to sum up a possible cause.
  3. I wouldnt worry eggs, your prob a little old fashioned like me and make do with whats available! [emoji6] Using pre made punches makes it all too easy, doing what we do and finding a way round stuff (bodging [emoji6][emoji23]) makes it a whole lot more satisfying.... especially when it works!!!! [emoji6][emoji108][emoji106][emoji23]
  4. If i’m thinking right, its an o-ring type gasket that fits in a recess, a cork gasket wouldnt work.
  5. The house project next to hospital? Pass, they seem to throw em up, then people move in to some of em, then they stop for ages, till rest are sold then carry on again building more??!!! Its weird, its like they run out of money then wait for next pay cheque before they carry on again. Theres no lights or owt at the roundabout now, just sheer traffic hold ups! Not sure if theres some work going on on chatburn old road towards chatburn at min, not been down for a bit. Getting out on to A59 is a real pain in ass, if i’ve had to take a wagon out on test drive then i’ve turned towards chatburn and gone up side of shackletons garden centre to get on to A59, quicker by 20mins any part of the day at mo! [emoji30][emoji42] Where you at swinny?
  6. If you dont come up trumps with seddon for any reason, JB Weld is oil / fuel resistant [emoji106]
  7. Have you tried seddon plant at bolton? If you have the engine family number and engine serial number off the plate on top of the rocker cover then they should be able to source you what you want. I’ve took rocker cover gaskets out of them before now and cleaned em up thoroughly then put a tiny bead of silicon in the groove all way round, left it to nearly go off for a good half hour then reseated the original gasket in the groove on top of the silicone and refit and they’ve been fine. The odd one that hasnt worked i’ve put a full on bead of silicone in groove so it is just proud of the groove and let it go off completely, then fit rocker day after, obviously your relying on the clamping down of your rocker cover to make the seal. Those rocker nuts are like cheese tho sometimes so dont over tighten em. Seddon have come up trumps for me tho this last 3 years since i got told about em. Typically a 3-5 day delivery on stuff too [emoji106]
  8. Building shed loads of new houses round us at min, wouldn’t surprise me if we had more problems round and about yet still to come.
  9. Was on pimlico road, next road down from hospital, cut a lot of town off and houses heading out towards A59, chatburn, affected us on site at castle cement. Holes filled in now and main repaired, was monday morning, i drove through flood on the road on my way to work at 4:45am so must of happened sunday during night i rekon.
  10. We just had a main blow out a section of road in clitheroe lancs, shut half the town off (not kidding) left a 10ft round hole in road, closed two schools for day, shed loads of houses and hospital affected [emoji15][emoji15] Eggs, get some info off em regards water pressures, woody paul got a water pipe issue thats on going still.... [emoji6][emoji51]
  11. Thats brightened my day up [emoji16] big time! I thought i had a small cock! [emoji6][emoji23]
  12. Have seen some advertised for not too much money, maybe an option. But ideally i wouldnt mind mounting it in the top half of the wall, definitely above worktop height so the flue externally would be up out of the way, i would even fit a through roof flu if necessary.
  13. Seen a few articles and programmes with regards to plastics being ingested by us humans through our foods etc, the possible consequences from doing so sound very alarming. I love fish and all seafood in general but these are some of the worst affected sources of human foods that contain large proportions of plastic particles. Its a shame we cant do more to stop plastics causing so much harm.
  14. Shite that Stubby, time to get some cctv put up maybe. Police are chuffing useless for contacting these days and take ages to respond too. Social media tends to bring best results these days.
  15. Not for business just for personal [emoji106]
  16. Would only be for home, not business [emoji106]
  17. Would only be for home, not business [emoji106]
  18. Would only be for home, not business [emoji106]
  19. Was kina thinking it would have to be flued anyhow, and dont really fancy running one without like you say. Thanks osm
  20. Anyone burn used oil to heat their workspaces? And if so what brand of heater do you have / recommend?
  21. You find the problem yet briqette-seller?
