Then I thought it was sunny enough to paint my interior plastics, got them all cleaned up and masked ready to go and the rain started again!
At least I have started to do both

What did you use to debobble?

A jml bobble off from argos! Works very well indeed, takes a while though, some use disposable razors with good results

Fitted a new VDO MKON supplied In Tank Fuel Pump.

Very straightforward to fit and now means I can get up steep hills (and there are a few in North Wales!) without the engine struggling.

Out of interest I dismantled the old failed pump which has covered 220k miles.

I was expecting to find that the brushes had just completely worn away but interestingly they looked almost new. The motor had in fact seized up and burnt all the copper off the commutator

Now just awaiting a new UBP as it has started needing a bit of a "tap" every now and then.

Installed a tow bar yesterday. Now got to wire it :-) (and verify my balance vis motor).
