I'm with you Daim
Mid-Range works for me!
You could have a good night out for just the price of one of those expensive upmarket Spanners,
although I'm quite Tempted by these (Lol!)

If I were to buy the screwdriver on it's own, it'd be around €20 just for a standard looking driver!

You're not paying attention! (Lol)
My Production Assistant was working, which meant that I just had to do the whole thing on my own.
What with having to write the Script, do the Story Board, Standing up 2p pieces and even do my own Catering!
Quite frankly the whole thing was a nightmare, where with so many jobs to do it wasn't any wonder that I couldn't hold the Camera steady.

I can check here, if you want, for some good used tool kits... There are loads for sale, as more and more little workshops are closing down (due to tax regulations making selfemployment so expensive)...

Hi Daim
I was actually quite impressed with your Injector Cleaning Set up but 'JigJag' Carl got an unbelievable deal on some new Injectors.
Even the Price of Service Exchange, seems to be even Cheaper than having them Cleaned.
But like you I didn't bother, as my Injectors haven't done much mileage.
The Tool Kit sounds a bargain, have you got a link.
Although I am still saving up for a New Oil Cooler.

No link, as it is on Facebook... In a German group, only visible for members...
But here is an example from eBay...:
Werkstattwagen mit Werkzeug. Bestückter Werkzeugwagen Werkzeugkasten Schrank Box | eBay
Don't be surprised, it is all in German
The only thing you would then need, would be some imperial spanners and sockets, nothing else.

About a couple of Weeks ago I bought a Brand New Welding Set in an Auction for £20
But was it any good?............
The First Job was to unpack it and then assemble the Welding Mask, which was deceptively complicated, as it was more like trying to put a Jig
Saw Puzzle together but we got there in the end.
As for the Welding Set itself, it looks quite a nice piece of Kit, as well as a bit of a Bargain for the Price I paid.
Although I never got the Chance to try it out, as for some Bizarre reason, they didn't include a single Welding Rod.
But the Outlaws are coming round for lunch tomorrow and the GF's Dad has promised to bring some round.
Always a bit of a punt buying stuff at an Auction, so lets hope the box is not just full of house bricks.
Looking Good so far but the Mask was a bit of a Puzzle to put together.
Not bad for £20 but they didn't include any Welding Rods, so I can't try it out till Tomorrow.

Hi Warrjon
While I wouldn't want to use it for Welding on the Car, what with it being a 'Stick Welder'
The reason that I wanted it was to make some longer Car Ramps to get my XJS up on the Lifter.
Also a good idea about one of those Self Darkening Masks but I always thought that you only use those with a Mig?

Problem with the Windscreen Washer Bottle
When I started her up this Afternoon, the Windscreen Washer Bottle Low/Empty Warning Light was on, so thinking the bottle was empty I decided to top it up.
But all it took was a Pint of Water to fill it right up to the Top, although instead of the Warning Light going out it stayed on and I'm really not sure how to fix it or where the sensor is, so it looks like I may have to take the Splash guard off.
