Good choice to be inside today!
☔️ 🌧️ ☔️

Second fixing:
21 way fuseboard with SPD
RCBOs on each circuit

Waiting on the plasterer to finish the kitchen wing, and then the painter.

Solar room, approx 8kw solar and 16/24kwh of batterys to be added.
2x garages to be fully wired, including the submain armours too. 💪💪

Sockets and switches left proud for now, to allow the paint brush in.
Most rooms have lights.

No more dark winter nights, especially given the clocks change this weekend 👀👀👀👀

Fighting the rain today!
Engines in the garage now, so it can throw it down! ☔️ 🌧️ ☔️

2013 Ford Focus 1.6 TDCi
Head gasket failed:
Turbo worn:
138k miles…

So having a full hit
Bearings to be checked
Turbo check:
New Glow plugs
New timing belt and tensioner
Full gasket/seal kit

Decarbon the EGR and manifold etc.,

Good news, it’s had a new clutch and flywheel in the last 5-10k miles or so 🥳🥳🥳

2 hours in the garage, and it’s split apart:
Bearings are good, so that saves so time and effort.
Glowplugs arnt too old, so will test.
Turbo seems good, suspect it’s been replaced in its lifetime.,,,,
Injectors to be sent off for testing,
2x tappets needed
Skim the head too.

Belt failure
Jumbo L4H3

Time for some dinner, then off to swap an actuator on another transit van.

Engine bay cleaning for Sunday afternoon, nice steady job.

Nice little wiring job started this week.
Absolutely amazing “ladder/scaffold”

Someone decided they needed all the head height below, so gave me NOTHING to go over the beams with, so up high, cables are put into a copex, and lower down, Iv had to drill out a 20mm hole and put a bush and locknut onto into them 👀👀 needs must!

Little bit of simple Tray work too, with an up and over main run.

Centre lights, wired and working with their PIRs
Rest of the lights part wired
Sockets Fully 1st fixed
Board is mounted ready…
