Spent an hour in the slings this morning replacing this cracked seacock, pesumably damaged by frost. Arrived a bit early and decided to put the heater on - and was greeted by the sound of a knackered fan in the blower.As fast as you tick things off the list summat else goes pop and demands your money and attention. Boating eh!
Access was limited, so I got swmbo's bro to wield the spanners. He fancies himself as a bit of a plumber anyway, (ducks for cover).

Presumably damaged by overtightening?? I got two mates who are "plumbers" neither of them know what a spanner is, I ask for a 9/16th AF and get a wrench shoved into my hand. Will not allow them anywhere near the injection system. LOL

If I agreed with you we'd both be wrong.
