But I have a 50 year old Snap On box that is still perfect and it was used when I got it from the dealer!!!! Top, middle and roll cab with side shelf.
I'd love a strap on box. But even in battered condition they are way more than I'm going to pay these days.
I see that the 200 piece advanced socket set has gone back up to £330. When I went in a couple of weeks back it was reduced to £200, which is a massive saving, although I’d never pay the full price as they are periodically reduced throughout the year.
The advanced stuff is lifetime guarantee and My experience is that they do honour with no quibble.
I'm wondering how life insurance companies and the like would look at this. A lot of policies make it quite clear that they don't pay out for suicide.
Got the Bastid bolt back in, top hose fitted - that did put up a bit of a fight.
Pressure tested the system and when it got to around 0.5 bar coolant pissed out from under the stat. :'( :'(
Its just had a new seal so god knows why its leaking.
Got to take it all apart for the third time, try and work out what the problem is, and then do it all again.
Maybe buy a new Stat housing in case this one has warped ?
Ive ordered all three O rings from Autodoc. Nearly £20 inc delivery for three little rubber rings, but what can you do ?
I dont want to keep having to repeat the process because something isnt sealing quite right. Its too awkward, and wrong time of year to keep messing around like that.
Cars as old as Omegas are now, some parts will be difficult to source and a few quid has to be spent.
No idea when delivery will be at the minute, which is a bit of a pain, but hopefully not too long.
Actually, I should have posted this in my thread in Omega help. Will pop in there and duplicate it.
