Thanks for the update Rick, I will have a look at that on Saturday, welder looking at Mav Friday

OK the gaiter is off and I can see down, where is this housing in relation to the stick? radiator is 12 o'clock ish sort of thing

I will message Zac, he has a spare box, ask him to take pics for me

I have a week to fix it, I do not need it until Monday week when I have a worktop job

Perhaps I will not tempt Murphy, I will find the Housing ASAP then do the work once the worktop job is done. That way if it all goes pear shaped I will not let a customer down. I don't do much work now, so the next job if it comes in can wait.

Thanks again for your update
