So what would you consider as being reliable?

[bernardgreen]

How many manuals do you reckon Fred Dibnar perused?

Few if any, because in most cases he didn't need to.....He could work out how a machine worked just by examining it.

Or the other engineering greats come to that!

Who do you think drafted the manuals for the machines and equipment the great engineers created ? Drafted as most had to be re-written in simpler language that ordinary engineers could follow.

As do most "true" engineers today! Which is why you can't get all the answers from a book/google!

Most of today's true engineers grew up and aquired their knowledge and an ability to further educate themselves long before the internet came into being. The internet and access to information has diluted the ability to think and analyse using basic laws of physics and science.

Your annoying presence here is perfect testimony to this.

Oh don't beat yourself up BG, dry your eyes. Perhaps you could find a new oracle?

A Worcester is reliable ,,, just look at which ,,,,,, que the arguments

If you're using the ov in place of a Suprima, bare in mind the flow and returns need swapping round.

Other than that, with the offset flue, it is a direct swap.

Did an emergency swap out of one in a garage a few months ago in two hours

Give this man a medal

Wow Dan would you like a medal or even better a blue peter badge ?

No. I get paid. The joys of being an adult.
