The above is a single built in multifunction oven. It has a grill element in the top and the usual element surrounding the fan at the back. The unit powers up and seems to start heating although whether this is from the grill or oven element i can't tell. One off the options on the rotary dial...

If the pump has a strainer then that could be blocked causing loss of oil pressure. Sump off and check, if nothing else you should beable to change the oil pump from underneath with the sump removed. Having firstly changed the oil pressure switch as the easiest and cheapest option.

Fuse?

Another area to try is the fuel line to fuel tank connector. I had a VW jetta where the rubber connector had perished slightly and air could be drawn into the fuel line by the fuel pump, the exhaust fumes were white, great clouds of them when it did decide to start.

Because they have a warmer average climate... And there was me thinking it was the gas industry pushing it wares on the back of north sea gas, which seems to be running out now, but never mind that nice man Mr Putin has lots which he'll let us have for next to nothing. :shock:

This is the latest spiel from DECC. The last sentence is the interesting one. Treatment of air source heat pumps under the RHI Air source heat pumps can heat air directly (air to air heat pumps) or use water as the heating medium (air to water heat pumps). In the medium to long term, we...

Why then is it so popular and appears to work satisfactorily in countries like New Zealand? :)

According to the DECC site ASHP are one of the selected systems. I have 3.86kw solar panels so intend off setting one against the other over the course of the year. Was that a 19% increase in the cost of gas by our Scots relations? BG won't pay me £800 a year tax free to use its product :shock:

Plus maybe they know people, in suits, put horses heads in yer bed, that kind. :D

What does the o ring actually do, i realise its a seal but is it on a moving part? If the rubber or whatever its made of is hard then if you have the skill try cutting down a tap washer. There are washers with no holes in the center so it can be drilled to size and i've ground them down against...

Was going to suck it and see on the rad size, i understand aluminium ones might be a better option regarding heat output size for size is this correct?

No they haven't :D

I have done some research. I envisaged taking 28mm from the pump and using a 100litre buffer tank and feeding the rads from this. I also understand the heat pumps exchanger could be particularly prone to clogging with the magnitite already in the system. Intend to put a magnetic filter in the...

The same reason if you tee'd off before the gas meter or electric meter. :roll:

Am considering bolting one of these to an existing central heating system, 10 rads 3 less than 2 years old has had inhibitor in system, the system would need a chemical flush. Is this something i could do myself, hiring kit to do it? If not what kind of ball park figure would i be looking at to...

There will be fluid down the plug hole it forms part of the trap to keep foul gases entering the room. The fact that the level has dropped means the obstruction or some part of it has been removed, the lack of bubbling either indicates the obstruction has dissolved or the acid part has been used...

Leave it for a while, try and introduce some more of the acid, its thicker than the water so should sink to the bottom of the system where its blocked and dissolve the blockage, don't add water yet as that will just dilute the acid and reduce its effectiveness. The bubbles are the gases being...

The people who stopped us being German 70 years ago were and thought differently than we do today. If they could come back to life and see what a state it all is do you think they would have bothered? Geman cars, German trains, German engineering equipment, Jap electronics, who won the war...

Get real if you think the terrorism laws are draconian, oo house arrest, can't use the internet, really really savage that. We have terrorism because we have no effective laws to deal with them. The ira only gave up when the red hand gang started killing them, we should do the same.

How come its all right to inflict the death penalty on him (for thats what happened), and celebrate the fact in this country, but we can't string up deserving sh*te in this country?
