    100 watt headlamp bulbs?

    They will probably blow quite soon, due to vibration as with all Renault bulb holders and they will be running even hotter.

    Electronics in cars..............what a nightmare

    The build quality of the components give them a bad reputation. Better quality, and a bigger delay before going to market would help build more confidence, but do they really care? Had an old engine that could not keep the distributor points set and if they were set would get damp sitting in...

    repair to crunched car door - replace or beat out and spray

    What part of the UK are you in, for a list of local Mini breakers? Here are a few on E-Bay click, but you would need to get a complete door and the correct shade of white and collect in person, so you, or the person doing the work for you could inspect inspect it. Also worth considering its a 9...

    Is it worth getting Pruning saw for Stihl multi tool?

    Yes a gearbox for the pole saw, not recommending to get it, just letting you see what's out there. That gearbox might cut more than you think ........ Its very hard to know the quality of those items, price doesn't always mean reliability.

    Is it worth getting Pruning saw for Stihl multi tool?

    Yes it will be worth it. But if your on a budget, check tube diameter and drive shaft type you may well find an alternative that will fit. Wont be to the same quality as Stihl, but you may to have the work to justify the outlay. E-Bay might be worth a look ............. Edit:Just had a look on...

    Peugeot 206 HDi 2.0 engine problem

    Low engine oil level? Or if you have a high mileage car, it may well be trying to run on the excessive fumes from the sump, so ask them to vent the sump to the outside of the engine to see if the problem changes. Usually if it is sump fumes you tent to loose control of engine revs, has this...

    Long hedgcutter?

    Your probably right, but we don't like using ladders especially when we are getting tired at the end of a long day. So its best not to use ladders at all, the pole saws go high enough for us.

    We don't we cut all hedges to suit the pole cutter and live with that.

    Long hedgcutter?

    No going up any sort of ladder then start cutting a hedge, especially for long periods of time. Can live with whatever we can reach from the ground with the pole hedge cutter. All our cutting is at ground level using the extensions and to be honest after an hour or so, we do have enough. We...

    Handbrake Cables

    If you manually pull the individual cable can you lock the wheel? No movement, cable / linkage to stiff partial seizure. Movement and no brakes, adjustment. Leave them as tight as you can on the adjuster, especially on the lazy side. But only if your sure everything is free. From memory...

    Long hedgcutter?

    Just keep an eye for secondhand on the small adds, but you have to be patient. We did advertise for strimmers, but was a waste of time. Drive tube for the engine part, might be clutch failure? No don't loose the Stihl dream, but its always good to have a plan B for a fraction of the cost. I...

    Long hedgcutter?

    Broke a drive to the hedge cutter but no rounding off of the square drive. You'd need to be picking the drive tubes up secondhand as they seldom give trouble on the strimmer head and they are to expensive to be buying new every time. We pay around £30 complete strimmer secondhand from the local...

    Long hedgcutter?

    Ryobi are cheap and cheerful and as already mentioned the cutting heads need TLC. But to be honest the whole 4 in 1 needs ongoing maintenance. We would have 2 engines with us and any trouble just change over. You can add as many extensions as you want but 2 would be plenty. We only use them...
