    What can happen if you go where you should not be

    That covers the legal aspect of things, but totally omits the irate farmer with a gun scenario.

    Tow rope length

    Mine is a 30-40 foot wagon rope. Just double it up accordingly.

    How good is your heater?

    I changed the thermostat today. The one in it was 82C and the new one is 88C. That has cured it. One of our tractors was towing 2 trailers today and broke down. I went and towed the whole lot home with the Terrano. Heater seemed to be working quite well :D

    I want to cut a hole in a metal petrol tank.

    Usual trick when welding petrol tanks is to run a pipe into it from an exhaust at the same time. Same as the CO2 method I guess. And you can wash propane bottles, just unscrew the valve assembly. Although that bit is easier said than done.

    Benefit difficulties !

    True enough, but most of these folk openly admit they have no reason to learn English. Why should they, we do all the translations for them. A lot of the blame for this is on us, not them. ps. I actually get more annoyed about things arriving in Welsh. How many Welsh people can't speak English...

    Dramatic change in weather

    Funny you should say that as it went from being 30C and almost unbearable to being 25C and very humid here today in an hour. Might have been due to the flight from Melbourne to Sydney. ps. I don't care how smug you may think I am`or how jealous you may be. This is the first time I have ever...

    jealous ?

    I'm in Oz right now, and it is nice and warm. :) The dew has just gone off the grass and it is about 22C I reckon. Looks set for a warm one again today. 33 is too hot for me, but it's been closer to 25 here in Victoria. Flying to Sydney later today, might end up having a doss on Bondi beach.

    At the moment I am at peace with the world. :)

    Whos got snow?

    I was following a 4x4 around a long sweeping bend, it suddenly spun off, completely out of control. This wasn't snow but a mixture of spilt diesel and rain. Luckily for me he spun off onto the hard shoulder so wasn't in my way. I went around the bend with no issues whatsoever, and I was in a...

    The blower works fine

    How good is your heater?

    I think mine would probably take half an hour before there was a tiny bit i could peep through. By time I got to the end of my lane it would have frozen up again.

    How good is your heater?

    How does the pollen filter stop it heating up? It blows air OK, just at the wrong temperature. It warms up eventually, but I have arrived wherever it is I am going first.

    towing cars

    Because it is against the law I guess. I think they are even more keen on the continent. Noticed a few of those motorhomes now have little trailers instead of an A frame.

    How good is your heater?

    So where do I get an 88 degree stat then? The only time it has ever been above the halfway mark on the dial was thrashing it up a hill, in the summer with 5 adults on board. Usually it barely moves past the first notch. Fan isn't on all the time.

    How good is your heater?

    Mine is rubbish! Terrano 2.7TD It takes ages to warm up, if it does at all. Is my thermostat stuck open, missing or just goosed? Or is it just the time of year and I need a sheet of card in front of the rad?

    towing cars

    True enough. The RAC and AA are phasing them out too. I think the only time they are allowed is emergency recovery. They are cracking down on them too.

    clutch pedal stuck down (im a diy mechanic get me outa here)

    It sounds like the seals have gone. I'm a bit confused how it has no resistance whatsoever yet you are still able to drive it. In theory if there is no resistance it isn't doing anything, so how do you get it in gear with the engine running? Usually with this sort of thing if you sit with the...

    clutch pedal stuck down (im a diy mechanic get me outa here)

    Does the clutch share its resevoir with the brakes? I had a similar problem with my Cabstar years ago and eventually found the resevoir has to be very full for the clutch to get any fluid. Even then, I would expect the pedal to come up on its own. Is there a spring detatched off the pedal?

    Whos got snow?

    A bit in Chester sometime this afternoon. B&Q carpark was fun if you wanted to play but I don't think the fella on a scooter thought so.
