You have to heat up the can to make sure it comes out as a fine mist, otherwise you'll just waste it, sit it in a bucket of hot water for 15-20 mins first.

its basically the small bulbs were changed over, all the warning light bulbs as they dont last that long, with pre wired 12v led bulbs, so cut out the wiring and heat shrink the new bulb wires in to the wiring, its all put back together now, i got the 12v pre wired bled`s from china, i bought 24 for about £2 delivered, saves having to use the led holders etc , nice and easy, you can get them from here http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/10X-5mm-White ... 19e98b4bf7" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Had the belt changed on Thursday.

Today adjusted the chain as it was slack. Should have been 28-30mm and it was 60mm oooops. Then washed it.
