    Update on SmartGauge problem, and request for advice

    Thanks for all the help with contact details for Merlin.

    Merlin SmartGauge advice please?

    Thanks Vic's, I did see that, but the contact details like you say old 2009 and SmartGauge don't exist anymore as far as I know? I thought that SmartGauge was actually sold to Merlin back along?

    Converting cool box to fridge

    Not a Sadler but a Hurley 30. I was lucky enough to acquire an evaporator 'O' plate along with several necessary bits from a generous forum member who was replacing his system with new, as the compressor he had was U.S. I had a Danfos BD55 compressor lucky enough already. So I took the old...

    RYDLYME ?

    I am going to flush my 2 gm20 today with Rydlyme and I wondered to chuck in the bucket the thermostat as well. Engine anodes are out so they don't disappear, but it set me thinking? I have a few part depleted pear anodes which would possibly see another years work, but are covered in the white...
