Well the car is designed to be a bit sporty and the pedals have holes in them. I did have another of the same model and neither of them came to me with rubbers! But how could I get a manufacturers statement that they are not designed to have rubbers?

That price sounds completely out of touch with reality. If the soil is peaty or sandy and easy to dig and the pipe about 700mm deep then I would have expected about £30 per meter to dig a new trench. Then the cost of new pipe perhaps £35 per meter. But still not £183 per meter. But it could...

I am guessing that the unit is overheating because the flow rate is too slow as you are using it on a tank fed supply instead of a mains pressure supply. In addition it may be slower still due to dirt in the filter which is quite likely when suplied from a loft tank. However you seem to imply...

I do not see why not. But the 22mm ones will be stiffer and give less isolation from vibration. So I might be suggesting that whatever you are coupling to should be well fixed close to the connection point.

I have a 2004 Peugeot 307cc petrol car. I have ordered two sets of pedal rubbers from different on line sellers but both have sent exactly the same rubbers which are both too small. Can anyone suggest how i can get the correct ones? I need an MOT soon. How is the tester likely to react to no...

When a two port valve opens it closes a switch which brings on the boiler and the pump. As neither of yours bring on the boiler then it sounds as if there is a problem with the boiler. As the first diagnosis requires measuring voltages then a meter and skills to use it safely are essential.

These are very simple non condensing boilers and so quite reliable. But with a cast iron heat exchanger they are not very efficient. The only common faults are for the fan to wear out or just need lubricating. And for the PCB to fail as they put it beside the combustion chamber which gets...

Yes, I would agree about £4000 to £5000. But the first step is to determine what size each rad needs to be and then what make of rad you like. Then get quotes based on those rads and the make that you have chosen. So the quotes are based on those exact rad sizes otherwise some installers...

It may be part of the design but the flames look surprisingly yellow to me.

A boiler in the loft would not give any gravity flow downwards. So you must have a pumped system. It may need balancing but one thing is certain that you have plenty of power available.

The Water Regulations stipulate the 750mm depth. Where it comes up to the surface it needs to be insulated.

Buried water mains are meant to be at least 750mm deep so that they will not normally freeze. Your proposals make it sound to me as likely to get frozen pipes whenever we have a cold spell. With all those water items in your office you will need background heating there.

Without seeing it then it is difficult for me to come to a conclusion. However yellow plastic is quite flexible and I would have thought it might be possible for you to dig a trench under it and just push it down into your trench. Probably bedded into about 100 mm of soft sand.

Well I am glad that we correctly advised that it seemed to be the PCB But that PCB is all analogue with no CPU or memory or look up tables. Unlike current PCBS which operate as small computers and often get computer like silly faults and can be very sensitive to switch on sequences. And...

But he could look at the opto isolator if it uses one to isolate the switched live from the boiler circuitry. But he may find a lot of the circuitry rather before his time.

Anywhere there is one fitted you might as well power it. The consumption is minute. Research on them is minimal. But this is mainly because there is no vested interest in financing it. But I was involved with the launderette industry where there is considerable interest. I am convinced that...

I am not a fan of car cleaning. But can anyone suggest what I might best use to clean the front alloys which have gone a nasty reddish colour?

But the gas pipe could presumably be lowered so that it is adequately below your new path. The required depth will depend on what the gas pipe is made of. Usually plastic or steel. And to a degree how your new path is to be finished.

I am discussing replacing the external door where the wired glass has been cracked ( by what looks like a 10-12 y.o. boy who ran across the road with a stone or something in his hand, broke the glass and immediately ran back ) Can anyone suggest a model of door which would suit replacement of a...

It is a traditional wooden door with a top and bottom panel.
