    Window to frame overlap

    When closed, there's very little overlap between the frame and the window frame lip for the bubble gasket to form a seal on. I've taken some measurements and about 6mm overlap on the outside and about 5mm on the inside. When closed I can see daylight on the hinge side. I was going to redrill...

    Device ID please

    Its my nephew's house. The tap set is an easy off with the old and on with the new. So long as I can isolate the HW, the CW off at the main stop. Then of course, there's the shower rail/curtain to fit.

    MIG gas welder settings

    Oil Filters

    Establish which filter brand supplied the factory where the engine was assembled and use that brand. Mann Hummel seem to be the biggest after market supplier. They own Wix and Filtron too.
