I use 6mm but can be difficult to get the whole of the weld sometimes, depends if your going to use the panel again too.

I use 8mm bit

8mm should be the smallest you use but 10mm will be the 'lazy way' :)

Nope! Still installing the stupid engine. Got an ECU and everything on it is custom:( taking me ages!

Working on the blue one now though, race time!

Ahhh I thought the engine was in and running, didn't realise you had management for it. Race one will be a beast though

Yeah they are the same ones I got! They look slightly blue when you fit them, but you can only really see them when its really dark. Having said that they do look quite good.

yeh the one i bought has no bulb holders, so i need to buy it all anyway, makes sense to put a nicer white LED in it's place

Yep, followed your story mate, back in 2000, we properly flooded, here's a crappy aerial photo, http://www.farringdon.biz/parish/hall_files/ChaseLake.jpg we're the 4 top left that didn't get the brunt of it all, the 10 or whatever bottom right got knocked down because they were so bad. They have 4 houses on standby for us, but we know if we get evacuated this time, we probably won't be allowed back. Thanks for the kind words though

just to clarify, the 'grass island' in that picture, is actually a 8ft tall grass mound

no-one worry, got some penetrating fluid from halfords much to the young checkout girls amusement

Ebay does mate. Got mine from there

yeh saw it online, just needed it local so i could go get it and leave it to soak over night, so i can attack it tomorrow haha. hope this halfords equivalent works

Love you x might just need to give it some more time then, as i managed to prise the plunger out a bit earlier, but couldn't get it back in, I couldn't get it back in using the clutch arm, might get some plusgas on it

The Matt

Get some penetration fluid on it. WD40 works OK....but not the best. With the arm out, the plunger is free to turn, so you can wind the nuts on to each other as lock-nuts, then turn it with a big spanner to free it off. Plusgas is the bomb.

RossKnight

What was confusing me, I thought spinning the plunger, would have resulted in the bit where the ball end is supposed to sit, being turned too? and facing the wrong way or something
