Thank you, i thought it might be. Will try and get sorted, hopefully it's nothing more sinister further in!

Hi all, My boiler was flashing with an E9 error this morning as is reading 0 bar pressure; but when i topped up using the filling loop the needle didn't move. Could hear water going in, then can hear not much more really able to go in, so have let a bit out of the boiler so not too high (and...

Cheers for the input lads; I obviously don't know regs and disclaimers that everyone's required to sign, remember this is called DIYnot ;) I've run plenty of cables when labouring without being qualified was just hoping to do that stage for myself in this instance too. Looks like it's not a...

Thanks Taylor, I'm just trying to save both myself and whoever I get in some time rather than getting someone in for two stages. It's literally a straight run of 7m to the cooker so I thought the first stage might be straightforward enough before leaving the dangerous bit to an expert. I'd...

Hi all, I'm installing a new kitchen and want to run the new cooker cables under the floor/in the walls before getting a sparky in to hook it all up and into the board once the appliances arrive but need to make sure I leave the right cables for him! I'm putting in a 9.7kw/32amp induction...

Thanks @D_Hailsham; If i run it the other way round so it's going clockwise should i run the flow into the left hand side of the rad so that it still flows in a straight circle; or wouldn't it matter if it still flowed into the right? i'm planning on putting a Worcester 28 or 30cdi in, the...

Abortion, ouch! :shock: Thanks for your replies all; i've only been in flats before so i wasn't sure how to join the upstairs successfully... The boiler is to go under the stairs but there's a 90 degree bend in them so i don't think i can go directly up from it, but if i can i'll tee of...

Hi all, I've just moved into a 1930's semi with no central heating, just storage heaters and an old immersion heater, so i'm planning on ripping it all out and putting in a new Combi system - the only thing is i've only ever fixed/added onto systems before not run from scratch. (Obviously...

Thanks again John, i'll borrow a proper jack and have a look - fingers crossed!! :D

Cheers John - unfortunately i am a real novice when it comes to motors - whereabouts is the gearbox and what side would the wires be on? :oops:

Hiya, I've got a MKI Focus '04 plate, and my reverse light has gone. I've checked the bulb, that's all fine, so was thinking it must be the fuse? Only prob is i can't work out where the bleeding thing is... can only see the board behind the glovebox, but even then i can't see an obvious...

Thanks for that, i managed to chnge it over and it's as steady as a rock on 1.5 bar now. (except when used of course!) when i was filling it up it just kept pouring out the overflow out the back until i turned the boiler on, then it stopped and the pressure stayed. Wasn't sure why this was...

Thanks @45yearsagasman; Do i just need to drain a few litres out the system rather than completely draining it? i always remove the key from the loop, so tht should be ok. I don't know what the true pressure is really - the dial doesn't rise any more it just stays static at just under 1...

Hi fellas, my pressure gauge is faulty, the dial is completely unresponsive - sitting on the max pressure for a good few months (never discharged pressure out the back or anything) only going back to a true reading when something was done - i.e. letting pressure out thru bleeding/adding water -...

yeah it leaks on the underside - quite profusely unfortunately. I have only tightened it by hand up until now, but tight enough that it took ages to get undone!! as far as i know the cistern body looks smooth inside and out, but i'll double check. Would the grips be ok on the plastic nut...

yeah sorry, i just thought i put in the wrong place so corrected and put in tiling - thanks both for your help though, i'd better go for another bag of adhesive!

Hi all, hopefully someone can help on what i imagine is a pretty basic answer!! Having embarked on my first floor tiling exercise - for the bathroom leading onto a small lobbying housing the boiler, i have run out of floor tile adhesive to fnish the lobby area. I still have plenty of...
