And he's just warming up, quite literally probably with the weather he must be experiencing way up North :lol:

It may not go any better but it certainly stops now with the 9 inch brakes.

Bet it wasn't the coil that was at fault - it's never the coil :P :lol:

speaking of grinding down - I wonder if it had burnt its valves...

Not 'warming up' - in fact 'cooling down' after 10 days at Her Majesty's Pleasure....... :(

Fortunately sentence was served in lovely warm Tenerife and Her Majesty in this case is my dear wife! :o
And she assures me the Internet doesn't work in Tenerife - although I'm sure I noticed some WiFi signs........ :-?
Kind of you all to be thinking about my dishwasher problem - I'm sure it's not the brakes, or the spark plugs - nor are the valves burned Ray - I always set the gaps a bit on the high side. :o Any serious suggestions very welcome though.......... :roll:

Well, it's got either a float switch or a pressure switch to control the water level.
Float switch: could be a bad float, or sticking, or a faulty switch.
Pressure switch: it's usually a plugged tube, but could be a defunct switch.
Talk slow, think fast!

Sad thing is - I recently threw away a 'spare' dishwasher I had in the garage - to make way for a washing machine for my train overalls.......
And yes Katy - there is a pressure switch listed in the spares available from one of the suppliers. Must be a delicate thing since it's only measuring a very few inches of water!
