Thanks for the responses. Ill contact the three companies mentioned above and see if I can locate all the necessary nuts, bolts and fasteners and if not then I'll check further afield. Thanks all strummerjoe.

Hi all, I am in the process of refurbishing a Morso Squirrel which i have come across. Most of the bolts, nuts, screws and fixings are either beyond use or I have had to forcibly remove. Can anyone point me to a supplier of replacements? I have had a google and i can find some of the more popular replacements such as the glass clips but not really coming across of someone who can supply everything. Any help much appreciated. Cheers strummerjoe.

Excellent, thanks for the recommendation, I’ll give them a look! strummerjoe

Lol! Yes it is with a lovely little 1745 crochet along the top! ???

Cheers, but I’m in no real rush, as I’ve no idea how much I am looking at I am looking for a quote so I know if I can afford it now or need to put the pennies away!

Many thanks for the recommendation. I've dropped Forth Marine an email so hopefully I will hear back from the soon. strummerjoe

Thanks Haggis, I'll drop them a line and see if they still do them, strummerjoe

Afternoon all, I am thinking of having a cratch cover fitted to the front of my boat and I wondered if anyone had any recommendations for a fitter in Scotland. many thanks! strummerjoe.

hi, i think you are right, unfortunately I have no lights in the engine room at the moment and it was pouring a rain up our way today so i couldn't open the hatches for a better light. I'll be passing over the weekend and I will try to get some better pics. cheers strummerjoe

And as I’m at the boat I’ve taken some more photos in case they help. one is of the engine, a couple from the top from the top and the other is the best I can get from the other side showing what the top pulley connects to. hope this helps. cheere strummerjoe The one from the far side has loaded upside down. ?

Hi there, it’s a Lister HW2M. cheers strummerjoe

Hi, That was my original question, how do they move together to release the tension as I can’t see an obvious way to release one or the other?

Hi, you would think it would be that straightforward but there doesn’t seem to be an obvious way of removing either the top or the bottom section, hence my post. and the belts are actually on tighter than they appear and won’t simply pull over to be replaced. cheers strummerjie.

Hi there, I am in the process of doing some work to my Lister engine and have come across something that has stumped me, though that doesn’t take much! can anybody advise how to remove and replace the two belts shown below? I cannot see an obvious way to remove them! many thanks all strummerjoe.

Hi, its cool, i appreciate your thoughts, i'm still relatively sprightly, though the old bones do ache a bit on a cold morning! ?
