Playing on Smartphones is often the reason.

I reckon that's it, or it would do alright. You can see the oil gallery bulge in the block casting with filter, that plug and the copper pipe take off all inline.

Check for rain on line. Meteor RainRadar. Add your post code. You will see any rain, moving approaching.

Don't be nasty to Haza folks, she's trying.

Remove both cables from the start battery before dealing with the starter motor or sparks may fly. You will probably need a socket and long extention to deal with the bottom starter nuts.

Do you have jump leads, like the leads which folk use to jump start cars, ie battery to battery.

Stop cock turned off in it's circuit perhaps.

Speed bumps are mainly used on rat runs or short cuts through residential areas.

And of course horrible low profile tyres at higher pressure than the old deep profile tyres make pot holes and speed bumps feel much worse. Also big luxury cars may seem to ride these quite smoothly BUT the suspension and shock absorbers are still going through hell.

Lister LH150 gearbox dipstick help please
bizzard replied to Lodewicus's topic in Boat Building & Maintenance
The gearbox dipstick is at 26 on that diagram. The gearbox holds about 2pts. If you have no dipstick drain the box of oil then fill with 2ts of 80/90 gear oil you can then make a dipstick marking the full mark with a stroke or two with a hacksaw. The reduction gear also has a fipstick and holds 1pt of the same oil. -

Many folk are unaware of proper marine set ups. All they usually want is the biggest or longest cabin possible so the builders cram the engine and driveline up in the stern end as far as possible, they love it.

Flourecent lights have a minuature inverter in them because tubes are AC. LED'S are DC so one by-passes the inverter when fitting them.

Blame the supermarkets for pub closures. If it wasn't for them greedy brewery companies would have to keep their pubs going instead of flogging them off for housing ect and flogging their booze at supermarkets instead.

Indeed. I have a wee digital volt meter permanently wired in in my lounge which I keep an eye on. Only about £3 ebay. It's showing 12.4 volts at them mo with no 12v stuff running so will probably charge batteries tomorrow or Sunday. And also one can roughly gauge what 12v things use by noting how much the voltage drops for each appliance. Learn the volt meter it's cheaper.

If the fridge is quiet, almost certainly an absorbsion fridge. Never heard of a gas and electric compressor fridge.
-
Inverters don't work for nothing either.
-
Electric fridge and flourecent tube lamps use a lot of electric. I expect your charging phones and a laptop too. You would probably need to run the engine for several hours a day. If you have a voltmeter gauge, with everthing switched off, fully charged is 12.7 volts plus and you should not let that voltage drop below half charged which is roughly 12.2 volts or your batteries won't last long.

Mahogany's substitute used to be Afromosa.
