thank you both. this was a find in a lot of brambles and the growth was very very thick so the amount of leaves covering it was virtually water tight.the flooding carb saga was revealed when I figured out the means of dismanteling.where the float needle passes through the float at the bottom,years of wear had made the entry point slack therefore letting in petrol to the float and in turn making it heavy,and so after a certain time it began to sink and then flooding occured. so my remedy was to take the needle out ,put a good dollop of araldite around the float and then inserted the needle and left the carb upside down for a day or so until hardening is completed.

Charlie, I am signed in using the password you sent, but I have lost the email with this on it. I signed into my profile to change my password to my old one in case I ever get signed out.
It asks me to enter my current password to allow me to change it. I clicked that I forgot my password and it automatically signed me in using my new password but the password shown is hidden so I still don’t know it.

Sorry if this sounds confusing.

Thatsa real shame Nigel , can it be repaired ?

[vhgmcbuddy]

I have managed to get the text ‘bold’ as you can see(?). I did this by clicking on the /b in the first box at the top of the box where we type our post. You then have to remember to click the /b again at the end of your post or it won’t work.

I did try to also get the text larger but I have failed with this so far, as you can see by the fact that I edited by post twice – I will keep on trying.

On second thoughts I’m not even sure that the ‘bold’ has worked as the text looks very similar to that submitted by Ray in the post before! Ah well, keep on trying!

[vhgmcbuddy]

Hopefully I have just entered the right codes to make this text ‘bolder’ than the normal text which has been in the topics posted so far. If it works when I submit this post, then I will submit another post with how it managed to do the bold.

At the moment I really think I will miss the preview box to see how an item will look before it is posted, but perhaps the web developers may be able to rectify this in the future.
