============ There are a few variations of the Lightweight PDWA , in fact if you are into rivet counting on the subject I once posted a few ID photographs on the Ex-MLRA , ISTR on the BLOG of the build up belonging norcoatomique . There are thread differences IIRC early is in fact metric but the later is UNF.. The much later single end cap type IIRC uses the ISO bubble flare on pipe-work but the very early / early does not.. There are two early types (but you are not likely to see the very early version) , they have hex. threaded ends at both ends (easier to push the spool out) with 5 pipe ports and mounted with the switch on top of the valve. Secured to bracket with 2 bolts. The very early tpe was used up to about 1973. Valve Part No. 64066420 Switch 74660145 -------- The later type is from about 1975/76 is mounted with the switch on the same bracket but IIRC using only 1 bolt and the switch is mounted on the bottom-side. This has only one hex. machined & threaded end-cap (I would have to check - there may in fact be two versions of this valve). THIS SEEMS TO BE YOUR PDWA. So it is probably valve 64068853 and switch 64677381. This valve has 4 ports because there is a brass "T" splitter fitting on the inside of the front (No.2 Cross-member) - that splits fluid to near & offside front brakes.. In a way the PDWA is biggest puzzle on a Lightweight to correctly identify. However - if you have a Spitfire Mk. 1V / 1500 , TR6 , Maxi, or even a Marina - you can rob one off it.. The switch is probably a makers part No. (not a Rover no.) Girling ? seems dated at 4-4-1975 ,, or possibly not.

Wasted taxpayers money on French deck launch obsolescence , Trident boats as a launch platform for the new F-15 Submerged Launch Aircraft

Both Landys - look at the one with the red bumper, the rear tub cappings are coated with paint over galv. factory finish , to my eyes could be dusty DBG or OD

Try replacing the first phone socket in the house (filter socket) . A MK one from B&Q is about £4 - worked for me.

I have had them and a IT savy person can get rid of some easy. However the one that seems to be very malicious is called "Antispywaredoctor" - it is in fact a rogue antispyware application (rogueware).. Apparently the free version of Malwarebytes can sort out many. Antispywaredoctor wrecks your machine from a very early stage by what are known "redirects" , every keystroke you make it - it informs you and suggests your computer needs its treatment. Normally malware is less vicious. . It is a international crime - demanding money with menaces. In my case - to get control of my computer again - I enrolled for Spyhunter4 (from USA) , it costs £33 every 6 months , the cost may not be very clear and they add VAT although they are US based ? . Of course Antispywaredoctor wants you to sign up for their treatment (apparently Russian ) , I don't know how much it costs - but of course they get your card details. I Gooooogled up on "Redirects" , and they can be very common , apparently Google were challenged , they can stop it BUT they stated they were not prepared to. It is all about sales commission - if you were to buy goods via. a re-direct. What it seems to boil down with - these Search Engines you use - there is no such thing as a free lunch..

That is the self & same tech. data sheet that as far as I can determine is on their present web-site ,, seems the person at Thompsons who answered the enquiry does not know what they are talking about. Two years ago I emailed Ronseal (Sherwin Williams) and asked if their metal paint (similar to ICI Hammerite) contained silicone oil - they said no.. A few weeks later they contacted me again and stated in fact that it did contain silicone oil. A bit too late as I had used it , quite high in silicone oil I would say but it seems to wash off the surface after about 1 year exposure..

BUT - in their Tech. Data Sheet as far as I know they never ever stated it was suitable as duck proofer. They sell treatments for brick walls !! They would not suggest suitable for anything outside their control.. I used to use Grangers Fabsil (fabricsilicon) on tents , then I joined a sailing club and was advised nobody used Fabsil for Lake District sunshine protection - everybody used Febsil (FEB Building Products , brick silicon sealer) , because it was the same stuff. I don't think it is in the FEB range now ? Everbuild Superseal - will be the same stuff (just had a perusal of the tech data sheet). I have used a few of this type of product on tentage duck and heavier type canvas - no problems. I have even sprayed tilts with cellulose OD paint - and it has never attacked the polyester stitching..

http://www.thompsonsweatherproofing.co.uk/products/product.jsp?id=1 They still do the spirit based original. the "Ultra" is the Aqua EU Compliant water based..

NO !! Under OSA it is still a top secret.. http://www.secretscotland.org.uk/index.php/Secrets/X-Craft

I try and stick to colour coded containers for lawnmower , cement mixer etc. but have made the odd error. I have noticed over the last few years that it can be harder to tell the difference between unleaded & DERV , pour some in a jam jar & look at it in good light - the final check for oilyness between fingers is not so easy now.. The two fuels do seem to be getting closer - is this because petrol multi-point injection and a modern diesel fueling system have so few differences ? Or is it just a minor tech point at a light -end cracker where at one time it was quite fixed - the % diesel /kero/petrol that could be drawn off ?

For balls you need the gun as well !!! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L118_Light_Gun I presume they just hooked it up at the castle and went walkies for a few hours..

This is why they sell pre-mixed , I always use it for first fill after flushing - then only top up with neat. I once had a company car supposedly serviced at a franchise dealership and logged as AF changed at last service. Going up the incline on the A19 River Tees in heavy traffic at -10C I heard the pump start crunching ice , it boiled up before I could find a safe pull in near Middlesbrough..

Comma probably manufacture more AF than anybody else in Uk. The technical datasheet for the industry standard Super Coldmaster , states Alloy / Iron. Are you afraid your engine has some sort of inferior aluminium alloy from WW2 ? If you don't by a off-shelf product - who is going to mix you a drum to your specific requirements ? Seems no get out clause to me , why don't you send a email with a specific question or to , specific query = specific answer..

The main harness - it passes through a square hole in the bulkhead (to the instrument box). this hole has sharp edges (best to dress as best you can).. Also the Solihull factory used a 2" cube of firmish foam jammed in to stop harness movement at this position. To reduce the risk of chaffing of the braid & sheath PVC - this is in fact one of the best bits of protection against a burn out. Did you find one of these foam cubes ? ISTR I have never seen them on the parts lists and they are often missing. IIRC I have one safe as a sample on the garage window sill - will have a look & take a photograph.. The first time I found one - I almost threw it away !

The main bulkhead harness is the thinghy of value - the loom down the chassis for rear lighting is no big deal as standard S3 88" , I would have to check the part numbers IIRC exact same - so the plug goes straight into a L'wt main harness..

These things go in circles - often before their time. This plant was at ICI Billingham , hardly ran from 1980 - probably chopped up for scrap.. http://www.scienceandsociety.co.uk/results.asp?image=10320664

Planning permission in conservation area , or if floor area more than 30 square meters, , or height more than 4m or eaves more than 2.5m.. Building regs. only if Planning Permission needed or if in front of house building line facing a main road or floor area covering more than 50% of garden England & Wales - basic rules..

Well - on the subject of "Toasties" - have you ever seen a in service photograph of a Royal Navy ambulance with one fitted ? 00 RN 23 ambi. conversion by Wadham Stringer , so who is to say that the rack was dedicated to 40A FFW's with rectifier. I need to do a bit of research into when the ambi. conversion was done , or did the sailors just nick one off a Royal Sig. radio truck to give it the distinctive military appearance ?

Check the seive on the bottom of the lift pipe inside the tank(s) not clogged. The cork seal inside the change over fuel tap could have dried out and be sucking air (common after standing) , check on eBay for Fergy tractor TVO change over tap (same - manuf. by Enots). If the pump is a genuine AC or good copy , there should be a manual lever on the underside for you to prime with - if OK then you should get a good gusher at the carb end - they don't need much to start & run LoL Beware of the non-genuine rubbish lift pumps..
