  1. You dropping a short film clip of Aliens in there for good measure [emoji6]
  2. 24.4v - 25.7v is typically what i see when i plug on at 6 weekly service, our trucks are all 2+ yrs old now, oldest being 4yrs old now, occasionally i see them up at 28v, but that same truck 6 weeks later can show 25v. I also test each battery on its own, both under load (lights on) and in static state (nothing on, not even ignition) long as they are 11v or above i leave alone. Dont seem to create any issues. If below 11v then i replace, but always as a pair, cos a bad battery can pull the other one down, and as our trucks do nights out nationwide i dont want a callout or breakdown as a result of only changing one. The one good battery i take off i switch out for use on our shunters or forklift etc cos theyre only pottering round yard so not as critical.

  9. Using a release oil or a degreaser can sometimes help to soften the remains. If you have scratched it slightly i wouldnt worry, just go over it with a fine emery and neaten it up best you can, it shouldn’t harm it. (As long as you havent created niagara falls that is [emoji15])
  10. Gently nudge it away with a scraper, try not to score up the surface, then any remaining just scrat away with a very fine emery, nice and steady is the key, patience. Blow main of it off with brake cleaner then finish off with compressed air.
  11. Not bad for a google image [emoji16]

  23. You still got original carb? Strip it and put it through a ultrasonic cleaner, blow it out again afterwards and fit a new carb kit to it, forget the chinese stuff, theyre only really a substitute for fresh on a diy/homeowner saw, pro saws want original pro parts.
