Pull your digit out, what are you waiting for? Margaret will not be pleased if she has to unload as well as all the loading she has done. :roll:

Big day today, Bruce came over and helped me unload the truck, got all but the welders off, they are too heavy for the crane and probably the workshop roof as well. Started stripping one apart, then the fun began. To separate the generator part from the Perkins engine required 4 bolts to have their lock tabs flattened and the bolts removed, not a big job.... if the engine will turn over ..... grrrr..... Tried everything, no hope, head needs to come off. Perkins hate mechanics, there are head studs under the injectors and you guessed it, the injectors are seized in the head. From 2pm till 10pm, got 2 injectors out, still one to go.
Thanks again for you help Bruce, much appreciated.

How did you both pull up at the end of the day?
Gman replaced the ceiling vent in the bus loo then put the new Konan tv up in the bedroom but no one said you had to have the thing straight in front of you to see it clearly. grrrr now will have to devise something to put the rotten thing on a different angle . Suppose that serves me right for getting a cheapie.

I'll know how bad it was tomorrow morning, I've dropped that many pills I rattle at the moment :lol: It's cold here tonight so my knee is giving me hell, think I'll climb in under the electric blanket soon.

We always check the side view on any TV before we buy. Sound can be sorted, but not a crap picture
