  1. Just to clarify the situation. The use of the words 'Kings Lock Middlewich' can be somewhat misleading. There are two businesses at Kings Lock. The business dealing with the propeller is owned by Mr. Sivwright. Not by Steve Wedgewood owner of the Kings Lock Chandlery, the canalside based business that sells diesel and can also conduct out of water repairs.
  2. The heater used in the uk to marine spec is the evo 5.5 being .5kw over 5kw on boost this heater can also be used for cold air circulation in the summer All new webasto marine heater sold and comisioned by a main distributor carry a three year warrenttee from jan this year. Water heaters and air heaters. if you need an email of the spec call me at kingslock
  3. remove the balast resistor and fit led tubes I will do one for you in the shop at kingslock if you want just pay for the bulbs, you will not look back just to check we are talking about the tubes that are about 10 inch. Do not try to fit with the resistor fitted
  4. with all due respect to all posts if this engine also has vetus stern gear, proir to fitting any flexible stern gear you may need to add a plumb block to suport the shaft as to much movment of the shaft will cause the vetus self aligning bearing to wear and cause the dual lip seal to fail. You can make the whole thing to flexible with the vetus stern gear
  5. £500.00 runs well removed last week bell housing leg wants welding on hbw100 box very clean and tidy
  6. I have a BMC 1.8 looking for a home
  7. Call Steve at kingslock chandlery or selby before any smart arse comments both are webasto main dealers and any one following this thread by means of searching for any answers we guarding webasto parts the answers are there,
  8. Steve at Kingslock Chandlery Webasto main dealer supplier to most boat builders in the area
  9. You may be better having a smaller heater fitted that works hard as most Narrowboats cannot accommodate 5kw worth of rads to make any heater work hard all hater with not enought thermal load will cause issues. No mater what make webasto unit tend to be more tolerant You need to work out you're thermal load simply measure your rads and look up there out put prior to fixing or replaceing your heater you need to match the load to the heater to get reliable system For more info call Steve at Kingslock Chandlery
  10. Hi please remember webasto units are also available as 4.2 kw and your thermal load should be equal or 10% in advance of the heater output Some nice funky looking rads have very little out put also do not mix antifreeze at more than 25% to water as it reduces heat transmit ion If in any doubt or more assistance is required call Steve at Kingslock Chandlery
  11. After 4 years at Venetian we have decided to relocate the logburning stove center and chandlery back to Kings Lock. Anyone passing Kings Lock in the last week or so would have notices the building work and the new gates being fitted, the shop is being extended before christmas. We aticipate the work to be completed by the end of January. This move is to focus our efforts on one site and offer a greater level of service from Kings Lock, I is fare to say that some of our efforts have been diluted in recent times, being on two sites and the problems that go with this. The hope is that I can wear a smile more often without the worry of two shops. We would like to thank all of our customers and hope to see you all in due course, wishing you the best of seasonal greatings. As normal we are offering a mince pie and sherry in December to our customers. We are not sure as to the date we will close Venetian Chandlery but it will be in the new year. Up until then both shops they are open as normal. Our core focus is now:- Chandlery, Boat Building, Boat Repairs, Stove Sales, Brokerage, all at Kings Lock. This the first phase of the changes at Kings Lock we are currently costing a new development. Best Regards, Stephen Wedgwood.
  12. a vetus 55kgf is just the ticket for the job if the boat has an integral water tank it can be mouted to the cabin side getting it as far under the water as possible, a usefull web site is www.vetusretail.co.uk the kits on there! if the boats out of the water its a two day job speaking from first hand experiance. a vetus 55kgf will do the job just fine if your boat has an integral water tank you can mount the tube just towards the cabin side of the tank to get the tube as far under the water as possible, instalation would take two days start to finish aprox! i speak from first had experiance use full web site is www.vetusretail.co.uk the kit is on there! Best of look.
  13. our self's somebody who supplies the trade have a view, somtimes its better to stand by a bussiness that's got some problems rather than force them into liquidation. That way you stand more chance of get whats owed to you. And the customer gets what they have paid for. Of course every situation is different, and all I was trying to say is let the fact's come out. Let hope for a good out come for all the customers and suppliers!
  14. Lets be carefull a meeting of creditor's is after all what it say's, it does not follow that is the end their are lots of possible out comes. The last thing needed at this point for Barry Hawkins is to much negertive press in advance of the meeting of creditors. Help is what is required, let's hope there is some light at the end of the tunnel?
  15. buy the gulper I have had 2 service kit on my shelf for 3 birthday that say's it all!
