We have a Bosch Classixx 6 Vario Perfect which has taken to stopping usually when it should be starting to rinse. We find it with all the lights out. To get it going we have been setting it to rinse & spin on the assumption the washing cycle is complete. Sometimes it may stop again during...

Thank you that’s something I hadn’t heard of … I’ll have a look …

I’ve never studied it … presumably you could do it in one piece and then there’s the fastening down

Just for table and chairs, eating outside, sometimes have a gazebo over it

Sorry, and thanks for the reply, I have a feeling it won’t look very good even if it were fully jet washed … I wondered if there was something to cover it with I was unaware of. Ray

This was a 3.8 x 2.6m greenhouse base years ago, I started cleaning the other day with a jet washer until it developed a fault of only being capable of running for a split second before stopping. I wondered if there was a one piece rubber mat available to cover it or any other ideas would be...

I’m probably missing something JP but I don’t understand this in relation to the original question. Ray

I understand Mike, most of my similar soldering has been on slot racing cars and I’ve never seen any solder separate from the brass, copper or steel. In this case there is no hole just a scrape maybe a twentieth of the way into the pipe thickness. Ray

A few days later it’s still working fine … Total cost £1.59p

Before you do … if it were me … I’d ask the local water authority in our case, Yorkshire Water, to identify where the on street stop tap is and if it’s not operational get them to fix it.

I agree

Regarding my questions in post #1 Q1. Adjustable valve body & float height Q2. The main seal is at Screwfix Q3. Yes, frowned upon but nothing to lose Q4. Yes Q5. Yes, slide locking ring up and simply lift the body from the standpipe. The seal cap is a one eighth ACW turn bayonet fitting. Q6...

After the WD40 has soaked in, slacken the stuffing box nuts off half a turn and wind them back an forth for a minute or two before trying to turn the spindle. Ray

It certainly appears it can be painted according to the internet ... By asking ... Can you paint over ECO REND MR1 MONOCOUCHE ONE COAT RENDER Ray

On checking today it was still overflowing into the bowl. Bought a new unit with the intention of just changing the valve body leaving the standpipe in place. This idea is frowned upon in the instructions so I bought and fitted a new seal for the existing valve. Several hours later it seems to...

You were exactly right Chris, I moved it away from the cistern and the float now works as you would expect. Still mystified by the relationship between the upstairs toilet and bath, and this downstairs toilet being spurred into action. Thank you again Ray

Thanks, it’s at my sons house I’m going to have another look at it this morning.

Thank you for that, I’ll wedge it away from the cistern tomorrow and check the movement. Are the seals readily available?

Having not worked on one of these I'm unsure what can and can't be done. The downstairs toilet cistern occasionally overflows into the bowl. It happens when a bath is run upstairs, or when the toilet is flushed upstairs. The float is fully underwater when the water level is in it's "normal"...
