  1. Do they also do welding work, i.e. for backrests?

    Yes, it is a bit of a traditional shop. Probably not the strongest online presence. You might want to ring them. I bought it off them a couple times as well as a very good metal primer called Metal Ready - but that is if you go bare metal respray.
  5. Hi there - interested in the OBC and handbrake boot. Rear bushes if still available. Do you shifter knob and boot?

    Been looking at this a while ago. At the time (last year) the importer/distributor had seized bringing the product in. Ended up buying Bill Hirsch's Miracle Paint. Excellent stuff. You can buy it at http://autops.co.nz/en/ in Onehunga. Call first to see if it is in stock.
  7. I am glad. We should go for a drive again sometime.
  8. Thanks, yes that's the plan. ?
  9. Thanks for the heads up - was expecting it actually ? They can be tricky to take out. Have been squirting a bit of oil onto the base for a couple of days now to work itself in. Have come up with the following procedure: 1. Don't rush 2. Penetrate bases with oil for some days 3. Warm engine before removal 4. Compressed air clean seats 5. Dap oil on base and let soak for another 30 mins 6. Check tight - 1/64th tighten 7. Then attempt to loosen (with torque 11-12nm?) 8. If resistance is encountered, work your way up again and down again Got hold of following products. Not sure which is better. Any suggestions?
  10. I bought one new from BMW, but that is a couple of years ago now. Didn't want to take the risk mucking around with a used one. My old one leaked out of the seam....
  11. Hi Team - looking to buy some ceramic grease for glow plug fitting. Any recommendations for good product and where to buy? Cheers!
  12. ... and don't forget Brent @ BMWorld!
  13. Good for drying painted parts?
  14. An (M)SDS is only applicable to substances and solutions. Articles, such as engines, do not have a SDS nor is there a requirement on the manufacturer to provide such. Normally there are product data sheets for articles. Again, these will tell you little about any associated hazards. I would only expect a SDS for any particular hazardous substances contained in the engine. If you ship by sea, then I believe the correct classification for engines falls under UN3166 in the current IMDG code (39-18). Special provision 961 (or 962) would lift provisions of the IMDG code if drained of hazardous liquids. Fuel lines or tank is not required to be purged, but engine must not be able to start with amount of fuel left in system. Hope this helps. You used to deal with this in my previous life...

    The stereo is a bit of a let down... ?
  16. Valve shuts completely when on coldest setting. Double check valve. The only other item I can think of would be the temp dial itself. But you swapped that already. Temp sensor is unlikely faulty but pays to check as well.
  17. On road I would agree. That 16s are probably the limit. Handling gets a bit too harsh after that.
