Have just finished clearing out gunk from the under-the-sink pipes. Didn't note down the position of the pipes before disassembly. Just connected everything up, after several hours of frustration of trying different pipe connections, and finally ending up with what you see. Not sure if have the...

I'll be sure to register with Photobucket soon, so that I can post pics more efficiently next time around. Thanks for the link, Softus!

Sorry guys, I forgot about the registration requirement at that car forum I belong to. Softus, I just e-mailed you. Cheers, RS :)

Hi Softus, Thanks for your quick reply! Much appreciated. Here's a URL link to a car site I belong to. I posted the pics of my shower tap (faucet) there. It's at: http://www.benzworld.org/forums/test/1354766-shower-faucet-replacement-query.html#post2682173 I've circled in red the...

The knob on the side of my shower tap (faucet) which controls hot and cold water has become stiff over the past few months. I plan to replace the unit. It looks like in the link below. (Sorry, Finnish text.) Left side controls water flow pressure...

Thanks, guys, for the responses. You've guided me excellently. I now know I'll stick with my current antenna socket. LeeeJC, thanks in particular for the antenna gain link, which really did put things into perspective! I will, indeed, buy a new antenna lead today (to replace my aging +15...

Hi Electronics, Actually, I should have updated my profile. I'm now living in Finland. It's on a 6m. mast (new antenna), as other neighbours have here, cos got one large hill to get past, but the base station is only 3 km. away. About the antenna outlet, I meant the indoor socket where one...

I recently had a Triax Unix 100 digi/analog UHF outdoor antenna (17 dB) installed on my home's wall. It's on a 6 m. mast, so high up there outdoors. Just wondering -- my present antenna outlet indoors in the living room is a Teleste 061 (metal thingy). I read that that means it's a 6 dB...

Ok, I've now gained access to the gasket area -- I had to go to the back of the oven, and remove that metal plate, and then two screws to remove the inner plate which holds the gasket. Now I have full access for replacement. Thing is, I'm not sure which way round the gasket goes....since we...

My electric oven rim's gasket has torn off on several parts after 8 years of use. It's a Scandinavian oven -- Helkama, model number G 6745 (60 cm). I've now removed the oven door, and bolts at the back of the oven interior space, but still don't have full enough access to get all the crumbling...

Thanks guys for the info. I think I'll go down the Norton A/V route this time, cos yes, I agree, Norton IS really slows down programs. One thing -- once I get Norton AV 2007, will I need to remove Norton IS 2006 completely from my system? //RS

John, hey, sorry yes I forgot to mention the model. It's a Scandinavian brand, Helkama, and the model # is G6745. -- RS

Wanted opinions. I'm about to buy a Kärcher. Lots of choice for sure. Lots of models. I wanna regularly clean my car and many outdoors items, like plastic chairs, and garden stuff, like paving stones. Would I be better off with the 2-series Kärcher, or is that only for occasional use? What...

Hey John, Thanks for that advice. How do I pull out that plug? (What implement needed?) Cheers, RS

I just bought a new set of Philips Multilife 1.2 V NiMH rechargeable batteries (AA). They're 2600 NiMH. Thing is, I really wanna maximize the use of these, and get as many years of use out of 'em as poss. My last set of rechargeables had a disappointing lifespan. I've heard that correct...

Ok folks, next question -- my oven's seal has torn off on several parts. The oven's now in its 8th year of use. Is that rubber seal easily replaced, and how is it done? I've already removed the inner door of the oven, to clean the grease off that, and that involved removing several screws...

At the back of my Siemens bar-fridge, water is constantly building-up at the back of the fridge where there's a channel with a pinky-finger sized hole in the centre. This means that there's a regular puddle of water inside the fridge, under the vegetable-bin. Every now and then, I've cleared...

Hey folks, I have Norton IS 2006 on my PC right now. The 1-yr's membership has now expired. I've got a few Qs, and would appreciate answers and opinions to guide me -- thanks!: 1) Is F-Secure IS 2007 any good? (Thinking of changing brands for my new IS program.) 2) Are all Norton...

Thanks Igorian and IJ for your input -- much appreciated and now I'm better informed! Cheers, RS :D

Hey folks, My hard drive's now caput. (Luckily, it's under warranty.) When the new 160 GB replacement comes from the manufacturer, I was thinking of getting 160 GB or 320 GB more added, in the available slot inside the tower drive. Should I also increase my tower drive's memory, to 1 GB...
