Hi buddy

Good to hear, ur find this a great forum with plenty of help

Safe trip and indeed Plse let us know how things go
 
I started as an endentured apprentice and still have my documents, good experienced men shared their knowledge with me and all I had to do was carry the tools and go to the shop at lunch time.
Now it should be my turn to pass on what I learned but in so many industries experience seems to be like aids people who have it are not welcome and soon disappear, one of my life regrets is the chain ends with me.
I can't complain really I made a good living and now enjoy my retirement, but it doesn't feel right.


one of the things of progress is that companies want 'cheap'.. experience comes at a price.

It was politicians that effectively stopped apprenticeships describing them as "outdated in the modern technological age". Companies were quick to realise that it was cheaper to employ already trained staff than do the training.

Hi guys I’m back and straight at it. So I’ve got one injector out the first one on the right bank as viewed from front. I can’t pull the second one out using adjustable grips but it’s so tightly in I’m a little nervous of breaking it anyhow might go to the left bank and try to get those out.
I’m also looking at the sump is this as straight forward as it looks from below already got starter out any advice whilst I stop for a cuppa would be great

If you leave it in and pull off the sump, someone may photograph you and that would ruin your chances of getting elected in Canada.

Yeah, bit odd that. I doubt Aladdin was white. If I go to a fancy-dress dressed as a dog with floppy ears and a tail I wouldn't expect a mob declaring me a canine-ist. let alone as part of an amatuer dramatics group 20 years ago when I was half out of my skull on alcohol. He should have turned around and just said: f*ck off you miserable c*nts.
