Oil to the exact manufacturers specification is the key to this, not some random similar specification stuff found in a motor factors. I have had 4 Ford cars with these wet belt engines so far and haven't had any problems running the same belt for more than 70k miles. These vehicles have been...

Pleased that you have found a solution. You did not give enough information on the type of chain to allow anyone on here to offer useful advice. The chain that you wanted to shorten could have been anything from the chain on a bath plug to the chain on a ships anchor.

Because they crap as they leave the nest.

You are worrying about it much more than the average homeowner would. I will be fine.

I suppose that depends on the accuracy of your aim.

I couldn't have a plastic gas supply pipe in my garage due to the risk of it melting in a fire, but you appear to have a plastic gas meter. I have no idea what would prevent a plastic gas meter from melting in the event of a fire in the garage.

We don't watch anything live. Have a look at the TV guide on a Saturday morning and record everything that we will want to watch that week. Then watch the recordings at a time to suit us. Always something to watch, don't miss any episodes, can skip all adverts.

It will work until you put a space in the sheet name (so don't do that). ;)

Try: =INDIRECT("["&$B$2&"]"&$C$2&"!$A$5")

Use the Excel INDIRECT formula. In cell A5 of your Workbook1 example above put: =INDIRECT("["&$C$1&"]Sheet1$A$5")

The composite ones usually fade to an interesting dappled pattern in the sun, especially if they are red or blue. Composite is probably more secure than uPVC but the front door isn't the usual entry point for thieving toe rags unless you leave it unlocked. There are different qualities and...

I've used the Philips Hue external PIR with their hub and lights. It has been reliable but its at the expensive end of the market.

I think it is measuring the charge transferred in and out of the battery. The user seems to have to set the battery capacity in the meter parameters when the battery has been charged to 100%. Then the meter measures what comes out of the battery to supply a load and what goes into the battery...

It seems to be a small shelf for crushed Weetabix?

Driving instructors often use those simplified instructions for learner drivers. As you gain more experience you should instead follow the instructions in the highway code which essentially says: Unless signs or road markings indicate otherwise: Use the left hand lane if taking the first exit...

Yes. Provided that there is a clearance between a cable and any adjacent surface of at least 0.3 times the cable external diameter for multicore cables, natural air convection is not impeded, and any heat sources are taken into account.

At least you are thinking about it and not just blindly following the rules. Timber won't act as a very efficient heatsink to take heat away from a cable.

Presuming that your hole through the wood is bigger than the cable, which it should be, then the cable is only resting on the bottom of the hole with free air above the cable. I cant see that this is significantly different to a cable clipped direct to a wooden joist. In both cases one side of...

I would rather he didn't test that theory. He's nearly 90 with COPD and a quick bzzt might be enough to finish him.

People with no electrical knowledge can, and do, buy these electrical connectors in DIY sheds. There is a 50:50 chance that they will fit them the correct way round. I found one installed incorrectly on my father in law's lawnmower, he had no idea that it mattered which cable each connector part...
