What do you mean...... It was working when I left

 

[Guest]

Not waiting for any spares for my Perkins so I'll be out there enjoying the sun on the water

"The Med is calling me"

 

[syd]

I can sympathise with the waiting for spares from Mercruiser having waited a month for a new leg.
But hey, its here now. I'm off to Blythe sands on Saturday with a large group of drunks to anchor down, go high and dry and bar b q all day while the sun shines. Wanna come?
Take care now
Syd

V****'s again! My coil decided to leak all its oil. Hole caused by vibration, design again!!! On top of that, I'm at home doing a jodb for a customer, and I went on holiday a week ago! Coils sorted now, non v**** part, just gotta sort the customer now.

OK, to hell with it. Unbolt it and we'll use it as an anchor!

 

[Mr__Max]

Apparently we are awaiting a "gimble bearing"....wasnt that the bloke in the fugitive ?...should be here by midweek so I guess its a really rare part and takes ages to make/deliver/fit so will probably turn up end of september !

 

[oldgit]

Gimble bearing.

Most common bit to fail when weather gets good.Available from Keyparts within 24 hours.Amazed that local dealers to not keep dozens in stock.Only about 3 types for entire range cost about £40 ish.not exactly a fortune.

Medway man is just filling up freezer box with beer and getting the outboard ready
Mediterranean man well its B & Q,and the local garden center for you.......

O my Gawd its still going ahead......
