No the damp comes through the floor, we have quite a high water table so when we had all that heavy rain the sump pump was working over time and the garage floor was damp

Hello all, I've got a 1930's house, the garage floor has no damp proof membrane it's ok in the summer but in the winter it gets damp. I don't want to dig it out as I'm worried about the gas pipe and electrics, so I'm thinking of laying a dpm on top of it and then slabing over it. Any thoughts or...

Cheers Burnerman for your reply, after 12 months of messing about swapping coil packs, leads etc, yesterday I noticed how dirty the air filter was, so I took it out and today I went for a long run in it, I couldn't believe it the engine didn't miss a beat completely a different car. Although I...

Hello all I've had a slight misfire, low revs, for about a year, more of a stutter. This happens when engine is hot. I've changed the coil and ht leads and still got the same issue. When I rev it on the drive engine sounds great, so any ideas what it could be. Thanks for any help

Replaced ht leads today, problem solved, £23 for Bosch, shame I spent £35 on a new coil but still worked out cheaper than a garage. Thanks for the advice

Had a look today bone dry thanks anyhow any other ideas
