BB I was desperate for one of these a couple of weeks ago and did put a request on here. I eventually got one so this realy is a pointless post just to say I don't need one now thankyou.

Welcome to the funny farm..

Thanks BB. Will have a go next time I've got anything worthwhile to report.

Sorry BB I don't know how to post links but if you search Bilge Blower on flea bay you will see the one I mean. Think it's about five down from the top and as I said, snail shaped.

Bilge blower arrived and from a cursory look it would seem to do the trick. It is a snail shape one I got so will fit in well.

As above, the testers act in self defence to cover their own backsides in case they get checked by the authorities.

My welding isn't brilliant but will withstand being clouted with a big hammer. I usually grind the lumps as smooth as I can get them and then cover with a light application of filler and then grind again to make it all a lot smoother. The metal can be seen in most parts but then I coat with...

Thanks everyone. On the basis of your posts I have ordered one an it should arrive tomorrow. £25 and free postage. Not bad.

Looks like you're well on the way to doing that. Really, it's a little slice of heaven you and your mate's drives.

Have you tried it on wheel nuts?

I know it's not working but would still like to know where it is. Have looked all over the place and can't find it.

Where is the e-mail notifications thingy?

Thanks Timmy, I was writing the above when you posted. If it worked for you it will work for me.

Some good heaters on that link but I only need the blower to complete. A bilge blower doe sound rather nasty but all it is is a blower to vent noxious and flammable gases from the bilge on a boat, Also I can get one that looks about right for £25. Might need a bit of fabrication to get it...

Bump. No answer.

My Series 3 needs a heater blower and despite asking on various different forums and flea-bay I can't seem to find one. Someone, somewhere suggested a bilge blower would do the trick. Has anyone done this or had any experience in that direction?

Looks good with them on. Think I'll get some.

No, not to this thread; another one but forgotten which it was. Come to thin of it, you've replied to this one and it didn't tell me of your reply so maybe the other one was a one off.

It's come back. I got a notification today!
