An even bigger problem is electrical safety if you start mixing plastic and copper, i only use copper and copper joints on my old system but you could kill someone if you start mixing it up.

Got my Sony system back in the 80's with the turntable PSX600 after all these years just about to replace my Audio technica 70 cartridge with a 95e just arrived from Germany.Hoping there will be a sound improvement which would be a bonus and listen to my rock and roll collection!!

Omega General Help / Hand brake

« on: 02 July 2017, 15:10:04 »

Handbrake is coming up a bit high and thought i should have a go at adjustment,took the wheel off but for the life of me i can't see that star adjuster is there any chance its been removed/replaced?Same on both wheels i can see spring i think! To remove the disc would i need to back the shoes off because if can't find this adjuster i may have a problem?

Went out yesterday evening and the battery didn't have enough power to start so i've ordered a new battery as the other is a few years old.I'd come back off holiday to find it dead flat and i'd given it a good charge and checked voltage which was 12.4v but i thought i would check drain but when i checked between battery negative terminal and negative clamp i could hear a clicking noise coming from passenger door area  is that normal? What reading should i expect? Will it be zero or higher and when is too high?
