Either your eyes or your patience (or both!) are obviously much better than mine! :)
Thanks folks for your suggestions. Funnily enough, the weird behaviour I described seems to be disappeared right now. Maybe mentioning it was...
I never liked any version of V10 MAN engines, because they are rougher than both the V12 (which is unquestionably the smoother of their modular...
I understand (or should I say remember...? :rolleyes:) the attraction of girls in bikini. What I don't get is the reason for bothering with the...
I don't think it has anything to see with my provider, because as I said it only slows down when I'm logged in. Maybe something specifically...
Now, THAT is something I didn't need to be reminded of! :D
My pleasure, but thanks to you Judy. Your valuable contributions are one of the things that brought me here back in the days, to start with. As...
Aha, I see. Frankly speaking, I'm not sure I'd even bother turning the engine keys on for any of those reasons. Aside from heading towards...

Hi W, how many pages was it? Pretty sure I could translate it for less than that! :) Not to mention that I would guarantee it to be...
That's a possibility, but the VDO instruments of old MAN mechanical engines work differently. There is a sender on the engine, which depending on...
I'm late to this thread, but I fully agree with this previous statement. In fact, I'd rather be concerned that the pressure relief valve on the...
Nah, I wish I could get a patent by drilling a hole on a lid and sticking a valve on it! :cool: PS: by the way, I like salt water to stay outside...
LOL, you might try the following alternative, in order to skip the cleaning bit: Fit a valve on the strainer lid as in the first pic, with a rapid...
Very interesting, thanks.
