  1. I'll get one... but I was copying someone else's. Jonathan
  2. When it arrives please could you add the mass and some photos of it lifting the 7. Thanks Jonathan
  3. Do you have to unload the wheel to use the magic can? I thought about using humans to lift and then something light to prop... but a lightweight jack might not be much heavier. Than the prop. Jonathan
  4. How about removing the thermostat and: Running that test again. Checking the thermostat opens at the right temperature... kitchen, pan and thermometer.Jonathan
  5. What's the lightest jack and handle, or other way of lifting a 7? (Excluding the 'phone and credit card approach, or the magic can.) Jonathan
  6. There may be something in the archives about what it was originally made for... Jonathan
  7. I carry a factory scissor jack, mounted in front of the heater using rubber well nuts. Jonathan PS: Need any storage canisters/ tool tubes or bags to fit?
  8. What model? Another set of wheels as well as tyres? I'd check at MyTyres or a Mazda forum. Jonathan
  9. Could be an intermittently faulty valve. Was the original deflation soon after checking the pressure? Have you had the wheel off for a really good look? Jonathan
  10. Thanks, Peter. It will only have occasional use and probably mostly on bikes on fancy patent lightweight bits whose predecessors I did by feel. Would you be happy to buy the same again? Jonathan
  11. How difficult is it to get the toe adjustment right when you reassemble? Or do you go for realignment afterwards? It's easy to set them to where they were before. And the whole job's even easier if you fully unscrew the rod rather than splitting the joint: Stu's trick. Jonathan
  12. Check it's full up to the highest point in the circuit. Is this easy on yours? Start it and see what happens. Jonathan
  13. Do you mean "upload" or are you only trying to link? Jonathan
  14. Lots in the archives, including some happy Members. Have fun, photos please. Jonathan
  15. :-) Private Mail sent Jonathan
  16. Have you got an offcut of the boot floor stuff, please? Jonathan
  17. I need a low-range torque wrench, something like 4 to 25 Nm. Any recommendations, please? Current favourite is this from Lifeline for £25. http://www.wigglestatic.com/product-media/5360099114/image5.jpg?w=430&h=430&a=7 Thanks Jonathan
  18. I'd ask Simon at Meteor for options. Jonathan
  19. What's the ground clearance under the sump? Jonathan
  20. I had a plumbers dual temperature gauge with quite a fast temperature refresh display attached to both senders Interesting data, but how and where does that gauge connect, please? Jonathan
  21. Car has fuel and the battery is good. Glad it's sorted. Did you measure the voltage on cranking? Jonathan
  22. Was someone looking for one while I was away? Jonathan
  23. ... if only there were a convenient easily obtainable source of low-density polyethylene in, say, a sort of clingy filmy format... ;-) Jonathan
  24. The lightest solution might be... rubber solution. I think this has been discussed, but I'm not sure. Jonathan
