....... in a few stints, interspersed with torrential bloody rain

'sposed to have been dry all day .... and absolutely hurling it down here ATM

glad to report we now have a stealth washing machine .... can barely hear it run .. and the 'test drive' proved uneventful, with a nice dry floor afterwards ... .. at least under the machine ... outside's been a different matter, most o' the day

it's funny you should say that Mags :vissla:

.....
been trying to work out where to put a bed for Sparty for a while :smile:

... he's a PITA on your lap ... he keeps trying to head butt the sticks all the time :skratta3:

would be really useful to be able to 'park' him somewhere :cool:

Me guess is that this is a typical 3-legged, metalmade 3-leg whatnot! :thummar:

It is very useful when one have use for it and it does do the work one can have expectations for! :mrgreen:

A neat one you fabricated, Oh Druid! :shake_hands:

one of the guys on another forum suggested ....... " Cat storage device - will hold 3 seated? " :lmao:

made me rock with laughter -- they know i'm a cat lover :lmao:

so ....... Clara arrived at 7.45 this morning ...... Vicki says " you know the CH pump you came and tweaked last year ? " : ... " could you call by after dropping Clara off and give it another one ..... pretty please " ..... keep telling 'em to just run the thing every couple of weeks when not in use
Dropped little 'un off at nursery at 9 and nipped up to the village ... sorted said pump with a quick flick of the driver in the armature hole and away it went. Cap back on the pump and headed home.

I'd just pulled round a friend out walking his dogs in the lane heading for Druid central, put me toe down to pull away and ...... nada .. dead stick .... thought I'd stalled it - God knows how?? - but pulled in for a restart ... won't do it on the move .... and would it bloody start

so... walked the last two miles home after shoving the Golf, back into the hedge/verge as far as I could ... least it wasn't raining !!!

Spoke to a mate as I walked back ... "Fuel pump Gra ... known for it ... fine one second, dead the next ..... under the back seat squab is an access hole ... not too bad a job " ............ thank f**k it didn't die on Pam on the way home from Plymouth last week!!!

She was surprised to look up from her weeding and see me stood beside her ....... "get yer coat - we're going for a pull "

Shot back up in the Rangey, stuck a rope on it and dragged it back to me patch

Back seat squab took some extracting ... doubt it'd ever been out, but sure enough there was the access

note the unit locking ring ..... ..... only evident after 5 min.s with me trusty hoover, clearing all the crap off the top of the tank ...... couldn't believe the amount of crud that'd collected !! ..... and didn't want any of it ending up inside it

what a bar steward that was ....... hence the earlier posts .... no way José was it coming off/out, without either buying summat from VAG if you could find one ...... or getting creative

even with my foot on top of it and a 10" adjustable on the leg ... it still had to be tapped loose ... and i mean TAPPED!!

it did surrender though

and the suspect ended up where most things do ..........

on me bench ..... an application of 12volts soon determined the lil' bar steward'd given up the un-ending struggle with gravity ... and'd quit being a team player

Lunch and an ebay sesh later and I have one coming ......... into me local factors in the a.m. at 08.00 ..... 108 quid ..... ebay was anything between 48 quid, but Tues/Wed.s (maybe?) and 178 quid .. same speed ...... so went for the local and OE unit ... sod it ... want it sorted and it's VAG/OE ... or had better be ... was what I was told/sold for the bucks

Not been my month for fuel pumps, eh !!

on the plus side ......... I did have a nice 'score' with this Tuesday .....

pity it's missing its 'woodboss' badge, but came from a trusted friend who's had it donkeys and only uses it for his wood burner these days.
he's bought summat smaller, lighter and easier to start (like auto recoil thingy) .... and I've had first dibs on this one for years ... new pot and piston 12 months ago, new chain last month and running like clockwork ..... a hundred quid sounded like a bargain to me ... so's not been all s h 1 t this week

**#1437** » 09:07:18, 04-10-2019

HMMM, Didn´t I guess it was a 3-leg Whatnot? :klia:

Well, fuelpumps can be so :djaevul:

to be fair you did that Mags :skratta3:

.... whatnot does cover a wide variety of thingemies though :lmao:

as for pumps .... yeh .. right PITFA,s .... have had a few die over the years ... SD1 Rovers, classic RRs and discos are all prone to dropping you in the shit, at the most inconvenient of moments :aaargh:

today didn't quite go as planned ...... rang the local factors first thing, to make sure it'd arrived as promised .... Oh yeh :thumme:

.... and'd been put on a van for delivery to me !!! :uupps:

... usually too much trouble for 'em ... despite being on a route :sad:

"Well i was just leaving to collect it, as arranged" :vissla:

" I'll find out where it is and come back to you " :driver:

An hour later he's ringing to say it'd be back in the unit .... in an hour's time .... driver said he'd failed to deliver it as I was closed ... muppet !! :huh:

Anyway ... had a bit of a hit in town for various bits and bobs, top up the fridge, and a few other items ... then went and got it. :driver:

me mate who owns the place'd taken great delight in telling yon muppet that I couldn't possibly have been closed ... 'cos i wasn't a biz address !! ...
if yer's gonna bullshit ... at least make it plausible!!!!!!! :skratta3:

box'd had a hard ride at some point, :sad:

so got opened 'fore it left there :vissla:

.... but looked fine, so it came home. :thummar:

a very different unit, but basically the replacement .. :???:

glad I had the spanner made up .... would've taken some dogging down without it :aaargh:

...but all went in well ... :thummar:

on/offed it maybe 20+ times to prime the filter up :thumme:

.......and didn't think it was gonna start :sad:

.. 'til it coughed a bit and was away :hurra:

... Purring like a watch this afternoon ..... hardest part was getting the seat squab back in :aaargh:

... what a lil' bar steward that was !! ... :myzsko:

gynecologist job getting the seat belts through it .... at the same time as getting it aligned with three other locators :myzsko:

... but job done :thummar:

Hoping this is the last of the three .... RR tank, washing machine rebuild and now this ..... they reckon it happens in threes .... :vissla:

't will do me for a while :aaargh:

..... buggered my plans for the last two days anyway :vissla:

....was gonna have a look see what i have to do to this .... :sad:
