    Ray, yes I thought so too. I remember when I was with EDF before switching, getting a letter from them to tell me they were calling. And that it was a legal requirement every x number of days or something.

    I found this online, but not sure if it's kosher.

    "The Regulations changed in April 2016: suppliers now have to read meters at least once per year. The Regulations do not stipu...

    " --- no meter reading man has to knock on my door any more.--"

    here always used to be a legal requirement for utility companies to read meters every two years. I wonder if that was scrapped when smart meters were introduced?

    Hi Sloop - I'm away from home for a few months, but I do remember there were witness marks in the old substrate (as you say, metal in some parts, ply in others). I made up all new ply shapes, so just used a straight pick/scriber to judge how deep it was safe to go before hitting bodywork!
    I'm sure someone else will give you more precise help.
    Keep going!
    John.

    Hi Willy
    Thanks, hadn't heard of the Bilby but perhaps I should now adopt one! Cute little thing. Currently sat in Sydney airport departures - then 4 hours in transit at Singaport airport then on to London Heathrow. If we ever get to Tas I'll get in touch - mate of mine was there in February and liked it (he comes to Aus often - son lives in Melbourne). I have several friends whose kids live/w...

    Can someone explain how to remove the rear seats on a MG YT?

  • J K Chapin20 March 2025

    Len, I don't know if I sent this image to you so I'll share it with the group. If this project gets interesting, I'll open a new thread.

    I've been meaning to say something for a while now but keep forgetting--Every time I see your name 'Bill B' it brings a little happy smile to me. No, I'm not hitting on you. Don't know if you're aware, but here in Aust we have a little animal that's running close to being an endangered species, he's a Bilby, The Sydney zoo are working on building up numbers for the little fella to surv...

    $ 295. Includes 30 degree seat angle valves, Manganese Bronze Guides & 16 Cotters.

    Hello All,
    Just a quick question - does anybody know the length of the screws that hold the trim panel on the B post, to the body . This is the T shaped panel .
    There are 8 self tappers each side . Some of mine appear to have been screwed into straight plywood strips , plywood triangles (top and bottom ) or even straight into the inner steel frame . It would seem that different lengths of ...

    The other advantage of aftermarket upside down canister is the ease to drain the filter prior to removal. Punch a hole in it and it drains into the pan. Take the empty filter off with a plastic bag over it and into the trash.
