Oooo - look wot i got to play with..! It will go in place of our bodg.., er, adapted fuel heat exchanger. Splashed out a bit as it cost £50 +  Shocked





Old one shivers, naked, in the chill air of a winter afternoon...





This is the main reason for replacing it... it was noticed that some chafing had occurred around the nether regions. The ally is sooo thin it must be molecules away from springing a dribble! There IS a whole lotta shaking goin on! It did work well though. I may put a coat of something on it to protect it and stick it in Boj in place of thirsty electric one currently ( Roll Eyes ) employed...





There - that looks like a neat piece of wossname dunt it?





Mmmmm... heated fuel lines...
I will probably get round to insulating this lot one day.  Yeah, right!




Tell ye what though - that little blighter is SERIOUSLY good. Gets hot quick as you like and the Lard almost spits it comes out so toasty! Well recommended for all Lard/bio/veg uses.
In fact its so good - Milky and Gay Spidey just cant keep from a-fruggin' the night away. The little scamps!

Hehe - dancing gifs for the win!

MORPH! Those comedy glasses are fooling NO-ONE, will you get your clothes back on please...!!

Bit more preventive maintenance has ocurred today - bought some belt dessing for the poor hardworking rubber. Mmmm... sticky....
Hoping it will keep the dust down and stop slippage.

Also - finally got around to fitting the proper timer for engine run inhibit. This is 7-day programmable so we can stop auto running during weekday daytimes when people are not usually around. It will allow running from 6am for a couple of hours and from 3.30 - midnight so radiators are toasty for the evening. Weekends are set with no inhibit as washing machine/hot water are needed during the day so Ivor can go as soon as the inverter deems it necessary.




And finally, Esther... (Cyril Fletcher, anyone..?)
I was waiting at traffic lights in Totnes today and nearly wet meself (again..). Sadly couldnt catch the green which has a big smiley face on it.... Nice to see some vandals still have a sense of fun!





I luv smiley traffic lights, me!

Ok i've changed it to a link. But do you really think anyone would be upset by it? Even little kids would find it funny i reckon - and any 'grown-ups' who have a problem with it have surely grown up a bit too much....?
