    Thanks for the nice video, Alec. It helped in my repair of my old Hayter Envoy35 that has virtually the same switch design. I found a similar continuity break at the same point in the supply cable. Quickly mended. Your tip about the internal springs was particularly helpful. You’ve probably saved my quite a few hundred quid for not having to buy a new mower so cheers. Andrew

  • @deVeaux3962
    @deVeaux3962 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Thanks for the video. You showed us how they look after they're taken apart. And you showed us how they look after they're put back together. You neglected to give any advice on how to get them apart. The hint about the rollers was helpful. PS: When I did mine, I put them in my electrolysis tank that I built for removing the rust. Works great, and is less damaging than wirebrushing, since it removes the rust on a molecular level.

      Many thanks for looking at my Vidio. The trunions may look the same but they they are machined to include very small angles for the Caster, Camber and Kingpin inclination (KPI). The Trunions part number depends on chassis number and wire or disc wheels. Good luck with your project. Alec

    @charliehoughton2960 ปีที่แล้ว

    The previous owners had used standard white matte paint to cover the cupboards (not cupboard paint) and all are peeling. I did a temp repair with some white veneer strips but it seems the type of paint was the cause ??? Moisture on top of the veneer perhaps bled through making the glue inactive? Can I fix it in the same way? I tried wood glue but it wouldn’t hold and became very messy. I’m thinking to buy kitchen cupboard renovation paint and paint over it but need help to fix the peeling.

    • @alecmcleod5679
      @alecmcleod5679 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hello Charlie, the reason that I selected Wickes ultimate grab adhesive is that it sticks to most things,including damp wood and non porous material. It is also good when near heat. You could try using a medium hot iron to re activate the original adhesive and to flatten the plastic. Thanks for looking at my video and good luck. Alec

    Hi. I have the same carb set up on a wolseley 6 and they are bogging down under acceleration. Any ideas ? Thank you

    • @alecmcleod5679
      @alecmcleod5679 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hello Sam, l'm not quite familiar with the tem bogging down, but if you mean it engine is not accelerating properly I did have this problem when one jet was sticking slightly open after using the choke. A little lubrication of the linkage sorted it out. It could be fuel. Don't use the 10 only the 5 and remember the our modern fuel goes off after a time. Check that your No1 piston is firing at the correct time. My TR4 fires 4 deg before TDC and your point gap is correct and they are not pitted . Good luck

      Good to hear from you again. No I have never been in the motor trade but I have only ever had"old" cars and serviced them myself. I always try to have the best tools so all my spanners are Snapon from the USA. How are you getting on with your projects? Alec

    • @randallwilliams4817
      @randallwilliams4817 ปีที่แล้ว

      Im getting on ok. I wish I had more time. This Xmas I’m hoping to put a solid week on a rusty TR6 and if lucky will have the rear valance, left center and right boot floors, and floors installed. I’ve owned this as a parts car for decades, and only in the last few weeks realized what a good prospect it was. Of course, the passing of 25 years in storage raised it from a lowly parts car to a prime candidate. Go figure!!
