Thanks to all who contributed, apologies for the delay in updating. The RAC were useless and didn't want to know even though he had full cover for recovery and roadside assistance. A local mobile mechanic sorted it for £100. He drained the petrol into 2 containers, added some flushing agent and...

Morning My Son has just put £25 petrol in his Seat Ibiza 1.6FR diesel with a 35me range of diesel already in the tank. Luckily he realised before starting it and pushed it to a safe place. Local (Cardiff) fuel doctors are quoting £300 to drain and flush before he refuels with Diesel. Is this a...

Hi Kev, hope you are well. Sent some more busines your way today from West Wales. The local Plumbcentre manager is sending any calibration queries to me after I sang your praises at a manufacturers breakfast meeting.

Hi guys, Im looking at buying a Transit Connect LX 200TDCI for work. My concern is the 138k miles. Full service history with new oil and filter every 10k. also had new cam belt within last year. How good are these engines and am i likely to get a few good years out of it? I cover 8k local...

Ok, sounds good. running the cable is no problem. What sort of connection am I looking for? Is this option instead of wifi or is there a means of running this cable from the hub to the effected areas and fitting a receiver or am I off the mark?

There will usually be a pipe connecting the cold main to the central heating return. At one end of the pipe(usually braided flexible) there will be an isolation valve (either thumb tap or ballofix type, which you will need a flatblade screwdriver for). At the other end there will be exactly...

Need to pick a fellow RGI's brains. Faced with a fan go down on a Worcs 28i today which was beyond repair. Luckily I had a replacement fan on the van for a 24i (different part number to the 28i) Tried ringing Worcs tech help - forget that too busy, local rep not answering. The fans look...
