Mr Fro

Mate, did you not read my post?

Turd of a job isn't it. You can get ones that bolt on the top of the head which I imagine are fantastic. Well, better than the thing you (and I) have.

Unbolt the bolty thing from the back of it and withdraw the springy, clicky thing. Fit the main bit back on the hole & do up the bolts. Reinsert the clicky & springy bits (in the correct order) followed by the bolt. Don't feel compelled to prod the clicky thing in as hard as you can as it'll wear out the spinny, whirry components. You may now enjoy a moment of smugness that you've reinstalled your cam chain tensioner.

Tell them to find someone else to do it then! When they fail you can ask for a pay rise.

I had one of those really good commutes today - lovely weather and just the right amount of traffic that all moved out of the way when they saw me filtering. One nice fellow coming the over way even gave me a little toot of his horn and a wave of his fist to let me know he'd seen me.

I plastered the downstairs bog yesterday - it took the whole bloody day!

Well there's no doubt she's an old boiler.

Did he rinse it out before popping it in the oven?

I recently put a bike through it's MOT with a cocking great rust hole in the front mud guard. Clean sheet pass.

I wish I'd bought a decent keyboard instead of a piano. It takes probably a couple of hours to tune the thing up which lasts a year max before it goes out of tune. Plus a keyboard can be stored away rather than gathering dust for the majority of it's life.

I dunno, I taught myself to play a bit a couple of years ago. I just got a few noddy piano books and some music I knew and figured it out. Disclaimer: I've played brass & strings for eons.

Yeah, normal.

I've been pissing about with 3D printers this week and they are fantastic! 20 minutes printing can turn out a part that would take an hour or so to machine plus you can set it going and do something else. I want one now!

I guess one of the benefits of EV is that you can plug it in to a computer and set the power output.

I used to work in the office below Alzheimer's UK. Their office was niiiiice - all the latest gubbins which seemed to be continually renewed with the next bestest thing. They had a clear out of "old" stuff a little while back - there was a skip filled to the brim with stacks of expensive stuff that had barely been used. That's your charity money hard at work there! Oh, also, I knew one of the girls in their office. Apparently once they had reached their donations goal for the month they got to take the rest of the month off.

Same here. I'd like a new bike but haven't seen anything I fancy for aaaages.

What is it? The pictures are a bit fuzzy. I'm guessing kymco.

Or "f**k it, I'll cane it round the outside".

I've never done (or even heard of) a charity event where I've been asked to stump up £150 just to enter. Good luck with it but I think I'll pass.

Look mate, if you're going to shoot down all of my helpful suggestions...

Put a bog in the middle and tell her you're taking a shit?

Mine has clogged my garage up with her toy car. Can you imagine? A car in a garage when we all know garages are for bikes and machinery.

Top tip mate - when you don't want to be disturbed, tell her you're doing some welding and you don't want to accidentally give her arc eye.

Looks good Ian. Just watch 'er indoors doesn't fill it up with her junk. [/voice of bitter experience]

That's what I was getting at. You could have an iffy loom or a malfunction in the ECU. If you can get your hands on an oscilloscope then you can test the ECU output. You could just replace the injector loom and see how it goes.
