Hi thanks for viewing, yes I did, can't see a need to be at tdc, the chain will slacken but will stay in timing, remove cam shaft cover to observe the slacken then tension as you release new tensioner, kind wishes, John

Hi many thanks for viewing, thanks I got the town name wrong, can't believe being a Taranaki boy and traveling through there so often, old age I guess, very kind wishes, John

Hello, sorry just seen your question, I found it on ebay, about $30- it was a good thickness of vinyl too, prob usually is cutting foam repair inserts with contact adhesive then a thin dacron cover to give smooth surface for the new cover to sit on, many thanks for viewing the video, and sorry for the delay in answering you, kind regards John

Hello, many thanks for viewing, you must have so many memories, I just was at the yearly ussco reunion last fortnight, i was an electrical officer in late 70s, chatted with ships electrical officer who sailed the waihini out from Glasgow 1966, and and 1st mate too, I have quite a view ussco ships videos, hope you get time to view them, very kind regards, John Lamb

Hi much appreciate your viewing my bike, yes these bikes are a solid build and in those times a great design, easy comfortable ride, plenty of performance for a 250, kind wishes

Hi much appreciate your viewing, yes they certainly are, each one has an appeal and world following, kind wishes

Hi whow those mods sound great, my sold my 90 xr early this year after 20yrs, glad to hear of your bikes, very kind wishes, John

Yes I do like the 1985 model, you're right on the twin carbs they give full range of fuel delivery, I have had a ride on it and its got nice range of power from low end mid range and top end, thanks so much for your viewing, very kind wishes, John

Thanks for the video Jon. Loved my Honda XR200RE. Lots of great memories trail riding it. Even had go at the odd enduro 😂 I have a major hankering to buy one again…even keen to do a restoration. Just looking at some of my old pics from 1986 😅

Hi, XR200 great bike, many thanks for viewing, I'm 67 and still enjoying these bikes, so if you are able, go ahead. Next video I will line up the ax1 250 degree and both XRs and look over more detail of differences, very kind wishes to you

Hi both are great bikes, but I guess I'm a Honda guy, so the Xr250, buy the Suzuki Drz250 is both kick and electric start so that can make easy starts, thanks for viewing, very kind wishes

Hi I think they are great bikes, also parts are reasonable cost, engines are very reliable and working on the engine is pretty straightforward, kind wishes, thanks for viewing the XR250

Hi, heck that's interesting. Well I think I would drain the coolant first, then remove the clips at both ends and remove the hose from the car, give it a very careful inspection, it may have split right by the end sleeve, prob replace anyway if it's been there a while, they tend to soften, also very carefully clean in where the hose slides in, possibly something not letting it bed in place properly, or is there a crack in bottom of housing. Good luck, thanks for viewing, very kind wishes, John

Looking forward to seeing some of rides, kind wishes, John

Hi many thanks for viewing this video, as I pulled the sensors out I mentioned the bank number then, I ended up replacing both sensors wish was best plan, sorry its been a while now since I did this, the other videos on this job are probably going to be helpful to you, today I was driving the santa fe and stuck in slow traffic and I was again very pleased with the smoothly running v6, kind wishes, John Lamb

Hi many thanks for viewing, hope brought you nice memories, yes it's real nice that's for sure, kind wishes, John Lamb

Hi many thanks for viewing, ok hope you enjoyed your time there, nice food excellent service as well

Hi many thanks for viewing, it can generate but not really a suitable machine due to the centrifugal start switch, a car or truck alternator is a good starting point for a simple generator project, I have a car alternator video back a year or so, you might find useful, very kind wishes, John

Hi thanks for viewing, it's such a nice place

Hi, many thanks for viewing, I used a pick and very carefully and slowly worked it out of its groove, once the clip is out, the metal hose end should also carefully pull out, don't loose the clip, kind wishes, John

Dear Ricardo, ok, well it can be a few reasons, was the fibers and steels packed into the basket correctly, if it's slipping and not grabbing then you may have a pushrod clearance issue which is pushing to clutch in when the housing was bolted onto engine case, I think whatever the reason is, drain oil and disassemble the whole clutch and maybe so clearance putty to measure clearance as you mock up fitting it etc, study my videos and hopefully they can help, good luck Ricardo, John Auckland New Zealand

Hi Jon, yes they are well in range, go online, if you can find AS/NZs 3000 section 8 table 8.1 8.2 they show the max value for Z to allow MCB to open in less than 0.4 seconds, hope this helps, very kind wishes, John Lamb

Hi some people say 3 way, some say 2way with intermediate, all three switches control the light by switching the phase, this circuit is live common connection, many thanks for viewing, kind wishes

Hi thanks for viewing, yes also in Auckland, favorite place to visit and relax, if you want to view, I have other videos of Taupo and the surrounding areas, kind wishes, John

Hi, thanks for viewing, I'm ex ussco nz electrician, there are some very good books written and online content of the history of ussco, hope you've seen my Whyalla videos of ship builds, very kind wishes, John

Hi thanks for viewing, such a nice place

Hi thanks for viewing, yes I agree and for me many special memories when I was at sea, working on these big ships

Hi thanks for viewing, armrest is nice feature on this car, my other vitz doesn't have it, it's probably available in a toyota dealer or dismantler, kind regards
