Can you disconnect an electric oven without needing an electrician? What's actually attached to the power?

turn all power off.

every single circuit breaker.

pull oven out.

unscrew all plates over wires.

unscrew wires.

dont turn power back in until new over is in.

Hahaha Very Coot!

The dog aint bad either. :D

Charlie is a Cavocker. (King Charles Cavalier X Cocker Spaniel) but amongst other things, he's a Scooby Dooby. aka Scoob. :P

This time 2 years ago his name was "Major".

After Wakefield this morning, i thought about what im doing wrong.

And this scene came to mind. (from one of the best films ever, in my opinion)

My methods are unsound, if i have any method at all.

Boiled the brake fluid, thats not so bad, low oil, could keep going with top ups.

And my diff started leaking badly from the front seal. Better stop before i wreck it. i just spent $2000 on it.

So ill get the diff fixed, and before i go again ill put new good brake fluid, and take plenty of spare oil.

The basics is what i failed on, oil and brake fluid, i feel stupid.

The diff is just bad luck.

Any idea where the oil went?

Catch can? Head? Water? Etc...

I saw no smoke.

that whole no oil thing is a mystery. it sounds like there wasn't any leaks?

bad oil ? engine running hot?

I counted 8 cops on foot out the front of the formal we did. Not including the 2 MC cops and the pursuit under the bridge that pulled MiK over.

Crikeys - generally if we do formal runs we take awesome care of our cars. Go hit the Kambah Commonwhores FFS !

I can understand cops being there for general crowd control, and if some douche decides to drive dangerously with all those people around.... but RTA inspectors is just a c#nt act in my opinion.

i'm not certain you can defect a defected vehicle.

I'm also not certain if an additional penalty applies if your already defected.

would seem superfluous wouldn't it

Edit: Can you/should you even drive a defected vehicle on the road ?

Usually a defect notice gives the owner a time frame to repair the defect and have it inspected .... if it's not put 'off the road' then it really cant be defected for the same thing.

But I really have to agree with Shell ... cops fine, but the other is fishing with hand grenades.

    • Everything I found online said never use it because it'll dramatically reduce belt lifespan.  No, but I have seen excessive v-belt tension cause the audible bearing noise from excessive radial load in things like alternators. So don't overdo it. Ideally you set it to manufacturer spec using a proper belt tension guage. I tried the "clicker" type gauges but those cheap things are trash. They read way too low even when you're careful.
    • This is kind of where I've ended up for the most part. It's easier for me, easier for shops that don't have to deal with my weird criteria/picky standards, etc.
    • Will do. Suprised if it's not the starter motor considering it's 30 years old. Will get a volt meter though. Battery is close to new.   Cheers for your help, always appreciated.
    • This almost never happens these days. No. Clean your battery terminals and make sure they are tight. Use sandpaper on a dowel if you have to, to get oxidation off the inside of the terminals, particularly on the -ve. Check the earth cable from battery post to chassis ground and engine ground. Make sure the contact surfaces are clean - including the threads on the bolts that anchor them - because that's where a lot of the contact occurs. Wire wheel on a drill is a good thing for this. Make sure the crimps on those cables are all sound. Assuming none of that causes an improvement: Check the battery voltage after it has been resting for a while. If it's at the lower end of the range, put it on charge for a while, then see if it will crank better.
    • I just checked my belt, it wasn't super loose but I could bend it past 90 degrees a small amount so I tightened it up and for the first time ever my car didn't crank first time, had to crank it again lol. Don't know if that was because I tightened the belt or if it's my starter motor going out (been having slow starts for some time). Coulda also been when I was recording I didn't crank the key properly and it didn't save the recording lol.   Is that a thing if you overtighten a belt it struggles to start?
