Funnily enough Tom sent me a vid of the Donut media lot messing with their Z's after he got back home. What a fuck on trying to get all that lot on and when they finally got the cars sorted they blew them both up on the first track daySiC wrote: ↑Mon Oct 11, 2021 1:11 pmThere is a solution to thatScruffy Bodger wrote: ↑Mon Oct 11, 2021 1:02 pm Verdict, the E class definitely pushes you back in the seat harder.

Re: E Class woes
I've finally managed to finish the Clearview I swapped for the work on the Connect, new glass, bricks, ropes, re-painted in the proper metallic black etc. It looks like it's sold itself as my neighbour spotted it which is great, I've given them a good discount but it saves me in Ebay fees or dealing with the great unwashed so happy with that

- I scored very low on the autie test. I’m cheerful, happy, confident, like meeting new people, chatty and largely sociable. What the fuck am I doing on this forum?

That looks like the Clearview I’ve got in my front room. Lovely things. Trouble is it puts out so much heat we only use it on the coldest days.

Re: E Class woes
Lol, they do run at less than flat out you know? I've got the larger version of that one at mine and have been lighting it most evenings for the last week, just chucking a few logs on and letting it gently tick over, glass and bricks are still clean. When its going ok just wind the wheel all the way in and use the bottom sliding control to regulate it. Mine's my only form of heating tho.brandersnatch wrote: ↑Tue Oct 12, 2021 6:37 am That looks like the Clearview I’ve got in my front room. Lovely things.

Clearview have been left behind a bit now, sat on their laurels too long tbh but for longevity they are hard to beat, residual values are very, very good on these and they appear to be on a months back order at the mo. I've got one of their big buggers with a boiler to do up, must get on with it!

Re: E Class woes
I recommended a stove for a customer on Monday for her kitchen. I got a bit of a lecture on how bad for the environment they are. Even the most efficient ones are like having 20 'juggernauts' going full blast don't you know.
Fuck off pet I love mine.

Re: E Class woes
I 'need' one of those, it's the next unnecessary item on my to do list for the house. Unfortunately if I buy the car tomorrow then it'll be beans on toast for the foreseeable. I'm hoping that it's too good for me. (I have not bought cars in the past, that have been too nice, as I hate to be the person who ruins them).Scruffy Bodger wrote: ↑Mon Oct 11, 2021 7:25 pm 20211009_173319.jpg

Do it before they change the regs, move it up the list if you want it in there if you want to sell the house afterwards.Guest wrote: ↑Tue Oct 12, 2021 9:14 pmI 'need' one of those, it's the next unnecessary item on my to do list for the house.

Re: E Class woes
In the pub at the mo but this came up in conversation with the Blacksmith earlier, will get back to it if I remember. Something about truckers pointing fingers and it'll take the powers that be 5 years to dort or look into it as a diversion.

Re: E Class woes
Tom's also re-looked up the specs on the Dieselmeken pump, turns out it's a first gen one and needs 3 bar of fuel pressure to operate properly. As such the position of the fuel reg has been moved so as not to pressure up leak off pipes etc, they probably don't want 45psi up them...
Hoping for another bit of a shake down at some point over the weekend and fingers crossed it behaves itself for a bit.

M7 is a bugger of a thread to get hold of in assuming it's M7x1.0 same as used in Spanish motorbikes casing bolts.
