My biology clock stopped 8 years ago, so very sorry if I am able to reply now, yes who needs a clock on cookers and microwaves, but timer for sure, so you know you can time a period when cooking, like say to make a jacket potato in a microwave, place a big spud on a plate and turn up the timer...

You could keep it indefinitely (within reason) as long as it remains fully charged, i.e. once you have fully charged it to at least 13.8V terminal voltage, you can then leave it for good 6 months or even longer, but i would give it a top up charge every 2 to 3 months, or if you have a trickle...

Certainly do that, but simple resistance tests do not always show other weaknesses within the sensor such as the magnetic strength, test may show OK, etc. And you are right about using a car that can cut out any time in the middle of traffic whilst rolling or whilst stationary at traffic lights...

You missed two essential cost elements, travelling time, being stuck in traffic not earning anything, polluting the atmosphere, soon you would be picking up fines for allowing your engine to run longer than a minute when waiting in traffic jams, and of course the parking charges or fines and...

Crank sensors are weakest point on modern engines, they do start playing up, effected by temperature, dirt and age, since they work on a magnetic reluctance principle, their operation depends on all of above parameters, gaps etc, strength of permanent magnet weaken with age and heat, so the...

google is your best friend, or join a Renault Forum, members owning similar cars would be able to help you better,

OK, its flee then! just my bad!

what if you put a sign saying back in 5 minutes! gone across the road! or leave a manican (dummy) in your lobby with a knife in his chest and red paint , soon as they break in and see the body, they would flea the crime scene!

If it is petrol, then you can split diagnoses into two or three parts: (General diagnostics that applies to most petrol engines and is not Renault specific) 1, Ignition, this includes immobiliser problem, chip in the key (Transponder chip) may not be communicating with the ignition switch...

Assuming the valley could be fixed, with a proper channel with welted edges, and cementing any gaps under the tiles, this should stop torrential rain water seeping across overcoming the welted edges and penetrate under the side roof tiles, what do you say about the rotten felt under? would it...

I was a fan if Hillmans.

LOL if that picture is true reflection of how small it is, you couldn't get an ant up there! :) No we love how people find ways around obstructions, but you chose to cut your bed in half, i would have taken the roof down and hired a crane to lower the bed down! (Lol) we want to see the end...

No Catlad, this is the old 1930s construction, and upper level that she owns, used to be one time a 3 bed house and then got converted to two seperate 2 bedroom flats. However the roof is not original as original roofs were all slates and now uses conc tiles, and I suppose roofers used...

Most double beds are 4'-6", so say this was a king size bed at 5', but because it is roughly 3' in height so we are looking at a piece of thick board 5' x 3', that needs to negotiate a 90 degree bend as well as meet steep steps, I still think it could have been done, even a 6 foot lond board...

I have booked a local roofing company to come over and provide me with a report and quote for a new valley and under felt and see what the other owner downstairs says about it.

Second question, my wife owns this top floor flat, and someone else owns the ground floor flat, I understand the roof work is a joint responsibility, so i should be able to get the owner of the flat below to chip in on cost of repairs, or new felt, and I also wanted to know if such work is...

Thanks woody, I could not see any fillets or mortar, just a bit of cement, under the gaps of the side roof tiles, most of which has cracked away, the valley is hand constructed with badly formed welt, (If I understand correctly the welt means the edge of the leaded valley, is not smooth and in...

Thanks for your reply, yes it seems to have this welt about an inch and not sharply angled so the water fall from the main roof just climbs straight across this welt and ends up under the side roof tiles, I guess it has always been like that since the roof was retiled god knows by who, we bought...

Don't know too much about diesels, a friend with a Merc, had just changed diesel filter on his and afterwards it refused to start, so i looked on web for him, things were pointing towards air trapped in the filter so filter needed priming manually. Soon after it started, may be a one way valve...

Not really, it was awful, you get a feeling like you want to go but you could sit in the pan for hours and nothing poops out! and the pain stays as if you need to still go! not a very pleasant experience.
