Friend gave me a fume extractor witch is brand new, are they any good?

Take it back to the shop who did the rebuild

Welding fins on is easy, I mist have done 100s of them.

Frend took his car in for a cert for brakes and gearbox swap and the cert guy wants him to put Dynamat on the floor, is that normal?

https://www.globalweldingsupplies.co.nz/range-page.php?sku=R_WEIP2KG They are very expensive but seem to stick shit together, i dont know about nice looking welds. Brazing would work.

Its welded now, had to pre heat and post heat, it was a hard horrible dirty job and it was impossible to get nice welds, it welded best when it was over heating

Yeh i am tempted to hammer off the flux and gas weld with them, I will give it a test run on a bbq plate.

Anyone here done much cast iron ARC welding? I want to weld up this, 700mm x1000mm 45kgs, i got some of those high nickel rods witch recommend no pree heating and just peen the weld. I was going to drill the ends of the cracks and work my way to the middle with a stich with a long cool down time, and possibly de stress the whole thing after? I have a cast iron plate I was going to make a patch from. Sound like an ok plan?

Have you found the ignition points? I am they they are buried deeply in the engine

Dose anyone know the exact location of a window relay on a 81 Volvo 245? Its somewhere in the center of the dashboard, i just dont want to rip it apart if i don't have to

Coke fucks people over more than apples

Thats why its good to not drink coke

Battery acid very diluted, i have had a face full a couple times

I probably sed this before but when i worked in bike shops i would fill the battles up from a 20L of acid and chuck the acid that came with the battery in the sealed packs in the bin, ask at a shop and it should be very cheap

Oh yes i remember that thing
