  4. (b) The temperature rating of the cord. Cords are usually rated at 75°C or greater. Higher temperature cords of 85°C or greater rating are used for irons, heaters and toasters. Before replacing any cord, check the temperature rating that is marked on the sheath of the cord.
  5. ^ that's rated to 133, for heating appliances I'd say the tranny etc would be pretty fubar by the time it gets that hot This is 77 https://www.jaycar.co.nz/77-c-thermal-fuse/p/ST3800
  6. Does it have an option to continue running after shut off to prevent heatsoak? Probably a good feature for post drag run too?

  11. Actually just looked at my bike one that I did first and doesn't look to require it anymore (they probably leave that to the vin place) *maybe of note is the plate needing to be in "mint" condition, I maaay have used a low res photo of my bike one and painted over a big Crack so it wasn't so obvious
  12. Yeah they don't seem to worry about that, I've done a bike and a car Only reply before approving me was asking for a photo of the back plate (that was the back plate i sent them just weird looking citroen so probably couldn't tell)
  13. Re black plates Photos of them on the car (so they can tell its 2 diff plates) with patinad screws and a screen shot of car jam should suffice Photo of the chassis number if still there Reuseofplates@nzta.govt.nz
  14. Yeah got excited seeing the pacer stuff was cheap as, but says for bare alloy wheels only....
  15. Hmm some googling and "after some Digging i found out that the active ingredient in iron x is ammonia thioglycate " perming solution "With this in mind i decided to uphold a little experiment. I went down to the local hairdresser suppliers and bought a liter bottle of perming solution " pay careful attention its for normal hair and contains ammonia thioglycate as some are herbal and have different chemicals in them " any way I payed £8.49 for a liter and Diluted it 50/50 with normal tap water Some say you can dilute it 2-1 2= water 1-ammonia ......I then sprayed it very cautiously on my mothers civic wheels " she was going nuts in case it went wrong " within seconds a stream of purple began removing bedded in brake dust i was amazed " wish i had taken a picture " a little agitate with a brush and a hose off and they were gleaming
  16. How could you reject a face like that! / should of been clearer I'm after a brake dust cleaner for (painted) alloy wheels That acid is the active ingredient that turns ferrous stuff red in what I imagine is over price and fairly watered down mag cleaners Ie $20 for 500ml https://www.repco.co.nz/en/car-care-panel/car-care/tyre-care/crc-mag-monster-mag-wheel-cleaner-500ml-9308/p/A1307798 Sds says 10% acid, 5% alcohol, >60% water So 20 bucks for a shot glass of acid.....
  17. so google says brake dust cleaners are just "Thioglycolic acid" is there a cheap way of purchasing it, google wasnt very helpful
  18. Cut out the middle man and str8 jumper leads and a arc stick
