Need 3 or 4 18650 batteries in good condition .
Yes I know their cheap enough on ebay but I've had a few off there that I'm sure were not the rating they should have been and have knackered in a couple of months.....
So if anyone has some for sale but cheap as they don't get used a lot

Need some help
Is there anyone on here rewind electric motors ?
I was given a frankford arsenal tumbler (brand new in unopened box) opened it up and it had a u.s plug fitted so I chopped it off and fitted a uk plug (found out correct code for u.s wire colours) plugged in switched on 👍 .
It ran for about 20 seconds then went up in a puff of smoke , so I stripped the motor out only to find its rated at 120v 60hz 0.6A .
The winding on the motor has fried but everything else is still like new .... I've looked around the net and its a shaded pole motor .... I've read that it is possible to get it rewound up to 240v so is there anyone on here that can do it .
Will put some pictures up when I resize them

Crushed walnut shells or crushed corn cobs ,any reloading supplier will have it .put a little drop of brasso in the tumbler it will shine your brass up . When the Media gets dirty tie it up in an old pillow case and put it on a cool was in the washing machine .

Thanks I'll look into it

Hi all I've just been given a new & unused frankford arsenal tumbler ......
As I have never used a tumbler before (I use an ultra sonic cleaner) I am wondering what the best media to use would be ?
And where to get it from at a decent price ?

How do you men of kent (or anyone from anywhere) rate the kent county show in july of this year .
I've never been and planning on visiting family in kent around about the time of the show and wondering if it would be a idea to incorporate the show in our trip .

my shogun 2.5 was like that
as long as the belt has not jumped and done any damage its quite easy fix
new belt , tensioner , pulley and bolt
I bought a tap and carefully cleaned the threads up fitted new key with Loctite studfix and a new pulley from milner 4x4 ran spot on for 2 years afterwards before I scrapped it due to corrosion
DO NOT GO EBAY FOR PARTS CHEAP NORMALLY MEANS COUNTERFIT OR BAD QUALITY ON THERE !!!!
as I learned at my expense
use milner 4x4 or euro car parts you may pay a couple of £ extra but its a saving in the long run

Mmmm now thats an idea !!!
Looks like the glue guns going to get dragged out of the dust and

Thank you - what year is yours?
Its getting on a bit its a 2005 but with full dealers service history ...... if you look on youtube there's some videos on there of the xc90 doing well off road . I bought from down Sheffield and on the run home I set the cruise control to 70 mph and it returned 48.6 mpg which doing the calculation on how much it cost in fuel is not that far away from being correct

Money a bit tight at the min so I bought a system off the selling app WISH
Got a full system of dvr and 4 cameras delivered for £70 (no hdd but had the one from old system) I must admit I thought it would not be up to much for the price but how wrong l was
Its just as good as the swan system if not better

I bought a mk1 xc90 4 months ago 2.4td auto (semi) .
First ever experience with volvo but up to now its probably the nicest 4x4 I've owned .
I know its not in the disco league but having owned ;
Disco 300tdi
Toyota hilux surf
Jeep grand Cherokee
Shogun
Xtrail
It suits my off road needs very well (not serious green laning or mud plugging ) and is very comfortable on road .
So if I had your budget and depending on what you need it to do I would certainly give the xc90 a serious thought

Free just pay p&p
Having had my swan cctv system changed (swan dvr failed) .
I have if anyone wants them 4 swan cctv cameras all in decent fully working condition all you need to do is pay the cost of getting them to you or if your local come collect them

Hi Hodge911. I have previously owned an XC90 which I ran on road tyres. I frequently used it off road crossing stubbles, farm tracks etc with no problem whatsoever. In fact I took it places where my mates hilux struggled. A great car although the electrics did become a bit problematic towards the end of its life. Just out of interest is it the auto version as that’s what I drove and I do think it helps with light off road use.. Good luck with the new car. All the best Ian
Yep auto well geartronic as volvo call it

my grans rhubarb & blackberry crumble ................................ oh was that good

has anyone used one of these for light off road use as in across fields and farm tracks ect not green lane-ing or mud plugging
I have bought one as my everyday drive and since the engine went bang in the xtrail I was wondering if I put some m+s tyres or some say 50/50 on off road tyres on will it be as good as the xtrail for driving the fields [mainly large flat-ish pastures] and some farm tracks while lamping and field margins to get to hide positions with gear

+1 for driver leaving parcel on step and signing the machine .
I asked for proof of signature to verify it was not my signature but nothing came of it very frustrating I thought of calling into local police station to report but didn,t due to the value only being low

Just seen an add on gumtree for one of these ..... not this one the seller has put this picture on to show what they are . He is selling a project one for restoration.
Not normally my thing but I do like that one

A couple of my buddies are claiming and the firm of lawyers they are signed up to are the ones going for half vehicle value. This has been advertised fairly extensively a couple of weeks ago as the deadline date is close.
But if they do get 50% of the vehicle cost as compensation what % of the figure do they snaffle away .....?
Years ago when ppi first came to light and before it came out it was easy for joe public to check & claim my mrs and I signed up with a "law firm" to claim and they took 30%+vat so 50% went to them and by the time they added on their admin charges they ended up with a lot more of OUR MONEY than we got.
a couple of grand more 😵😵😡😡😤😤.
But you learn by your mistakes or so the saying goes .... legal robbery
