    That's a good idea. It is holding up at the mo but obvs not a decent solution. I'll have a bash at seeing where I could stick some araldite or other two part epoxy. :)

    Just ROFLed at this!!! https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c1kvyj7dkp0o Wot teacher worth his/her salt marks work? Only ones with no brain. Kids learn far more from marking their own or each others work. I only ever marked certain types of written work and the marking was designed to help them...

    Well you'd have loved it if it had been "torque -clé " cos that would sound nearer to Torquay. What is funny is that the word "torque" does look very French as a lot of their words finish in "que" in fact "que" on its own is a word. I'll have to check the ementenemolgy of "torque". So there...

    Disco 2 Bstard bolt came loose on oil pump follow up

    sorry to bother you and it may be too late anyway, but is there any chance you could take pics of where you have to put the RTV, the one longish line and the two shorter ones? I'd be ever so grateful as I cannot seem to work out where they go. I've seen the drawings in Rave.... I do have yet to...

    I dunno why peeps from torKKKaaayyy, don't like it being called by its name. Torbay encompasses other places too. "Torbay /tɔːrˈbeɪ/ is a unitary authority with a borough status in the ceremonial county of Devon, England. It is governed by Torbay Council, based in the town of Torquay, and also...

    Tis obvious you's from north of Hadrian's wall. Peeps who live there call it Torbay. When i was in Exeter doing my teacher training we quickly learned not to call it what you just did!!! I think this will come under the heading of a tool I bought just to do one job, though It might come in...

    Just discovered that W and I will now be getting the winter fule allowance, again. Though we don;t need it. Might donate it to Age Concern or summit. Flipping pendulam has swung too far the opposite way.

    The torque settings on the sump for my TD5 are not high and there isn't much space to put one in to do up the oil pump sprocket bolt. My nomal 1/2 inch torque wrench does for everything else, but it doesn't go below 20 ft lbs. My old fashioned, torque indicator type wrench is back in Blighty...

    Disco 2 Bstard bolt came loose on oil pump follow up

    I echo what @PopPops says. I do hope it all holds together. As a result of what has happened to you, and to kick off my so far laziness and complacency, I too am going to take my sump off and replace said bolt. All parts on order and will do it as soon as poss. Only slight pain is that RTV in...

    Disco 2 FPR pipe unscrewed from cylinder head

    I have to agree. I would do exactly as you suggest. Cleaning up the threads both internal and external before whacking on some Loctite. Very best of luck with it, Mate! :):):)

    In the meantime, after fixing it, sort of, with gaffer tape as the parts of the switch are basically falling apart, it is now OK. But I have been onto Citroen C3 websites both sides of the channel and it appears it is a bit of a common thing. When I gently pulled on the back end of it I could...

    Disco 1 my discovery 1 (1995) 2.0 mpi ticking noise..

    Does it have hydraulic lifters? I think it is without finding very clear info on this, If so this is quite common and nothing much to worry about, If so, you need to isolate which one it is and change it or maybe service it if you can. (Use a stethoscope or put the end of a long screwdriver...

    'mornin, (Just). Lovely day today, got up late and it is SO quiet! Went to a pottery and ceramics exhibition in Giroussens yessdi. Tis renowned for it and the streets are all full of peeps selling their wares. We usually buy at least one piece, sometime decorative, sometimes useful. Nice run...
