« on: 14 April 2013, 14:29:07 »

As said yesterday-on way home eml came on :o engine bit lumpy ??? but made it 2 miles home :) Did paper clip test and got
81/82/83/84/85/86 :o -all injectors short to earth :o so went indoors-it was raining-nothing new there eh.
20 mins later went out and open hood bonnet and problem staring at me :o the wire broke off my lpg gas temp sensor >:( so called rickster-as he good at electrickery to solder wire back into sensor(cheaper than £40 for new one) if possible=well he is a genius-had tiniest soldering iron I have ever seen and while there he modified wires to enable removal-if needed-5mins later-up and running no eml and we had a laugh at it- all in the rain
this is stuart watching rickster at work(again) ;D

genius at work  :y

the magic crimper in action

Another use for crimpers  ;D ;D

So thats what we did in the rain-clown around a bit-fix a bit  :D ;D :y

At least at that sort of power, it could weld itself together, which may allow some semblence of reliability.

I have plenty of crimpsets here. But still the work of Satin.
