  1. I've just repalced a sensor on my Dad's Focus.

    I used a light primer coat, 2 colour coats and 2 of lacquer. It still works as intended.

    I initially bought touch up paint but thought it would be to thick so changed it for spray.

  2. Thanks for the replies.

     

    The tubing is approx. 6mm in diameter and 80mm long. It's a clear, soft pvc tube.

    I've spent ages trying to find it. Looking through the filler hole with a mirror and torch, but to no avail. I don't think there's enough space for the tube to find it's way to the drain hole. Can't poke my grabber up, as there's something right above the drain hole, limiting access.

     

    I had plans for a nice productive day off today. Had already changed the diff oil, sorted a rattling heat sheild. It as all going well and then this happened :cry:

  3. Think I've made a very costly mistake.

    I have dropped a piece of rubber tube into the gearbox. It was on the end of a molyslip nozzle to allow better access.

    As I withdrew the tube it fell in. I've tried fishing around using a flexible grab tool, but can't find it.

    I was thinking as it's soft rubber/plastic, if I could drive it and then change the oil to remove the chewed up tube, hopefully

    Any ideas?

  4. Bilt Hamber always get great reviews.

    I've only used their wax and shampoo, but do plan to use their corrosion treatments soon.

    Detailingworld has quite a few threads on Bilt Hamber.
