Nute Posted May 6 Share Posted May 6 2 hours ago, Clive said: Hyundai......... i have cleaned all the lime scale (our water is very hard) out of the pipes, well as far as I can reach, repaired the on off water switch/valve.... the inlet water filter is clean, I am beginning to suspect it maybe the lance thats partially blocked, or pipe to the lance. No experience with Hyundai I’m afraid. My Karcher was not pressuring a while back, the motor was running but whereas if you don’t pull the trigger it should turn off once it gets up to pressure the motor just kept running. There was a defect in the cylinder head which let water leak out of the high pressure side. The new cylinder head was about £40. Pretty easy to change too. the original CH was shit plastic, the new one is aluminium. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will have a look at the pipe and lance tomorrow, if no joy with that I will bin it, only wanted it to jet wash the paving slabs down the side of the bungalow, when it rains they are as slippery as buggery,.....Thanks anyway.

Six30 Posted May 6 Share Posted May 6 10 hours ago, Sir Fallsalot said: I forgot to say i had to perform a mercy killing when out yesterday and i feel the need to tell you all to get it off my chest. I was riding along and saw a what i thought was a lump of mud on the road but as i got on top of it it turned out to be a baby rabbit. The front wheel passed it but the stupid thing went to run instead of staying still and went under the back wheel i didn't feel a thing but i suspect it was different for the poor rabbit, i went back to check on it and it was still alive but obviously not going to survive so i couldn't just leave it and had to finish it off, quite sad really if someone prepared and cooked it for me i would quite happily eat it but found myself shutting my eyes and wincing as i ran over it a few more times to finish it off. You done the right thing … @Buckster should fred say a prayer for little thumper tonight ? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clive Posted May 7 Share Posted May 7 Iam taking the car in to the garage on Thursday, they gonna stick a endoscope in the head, see if the bit is lodged somewhere, or if it has gone out of the port. Running OK at the moment, no tinkling sound any longer. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either of those is the preferable option, we are away on holiday next month, don't want the car breaking down on the way there, or back... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we went to Primrose valley the other year all we heard was Geordie being spoken, so yes the Brexit masses seem to end up there. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saul Posted May 7 Share Posted May 7 Oh a day of domestic bliss, fitted a new flap to the dog door, which to the dog is now afraid of . Daft little ginger twat. Also fitted an Amazon Bluetooth headset to the youngests lid. I felt sorry for her always trying to use pods with her helmet. Daddy bountiful me . I think she will be chuffed nonetheless 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckster Posted May 7 Share Posted May 7 I just tried unsuccessfully to cut my thumb off. Trying to get a top of a bottle but mananaged to snap the top off the bottle instead, ended up slicing my thumb just above and just below the joint. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
