| How Many Parts? Well it is that time of year, and maintenance has to be done! So having decided the time was right I stripped down the inspiration for cleaning etc. How many parts are there? Answers on a postcard to....... Neil

| Re: How Many Parts? Personally, I wouldn't have stripped down to the same level as you have on a lot of the parts (i.e. hose connectors) as repeated disassembling-assembling are actually not good.

| Re: How Many Parts? Hello, I count 13 spark plugs. Do you have a spare or it is really a 13 cylinder engine on that thing? What does the average cost-per-part come out to when you have it broken down that far. Sooooo.... will it ever dive again? ;D -paul |

| Re: How Many Parts? Personally, I wouldn't have stripped down to the same level as you have on a lot of the parts (i.e. hose connectors) as repeated disassembling-assembling are actually not good. In most normal circumstances I don't normally strip down the hose ends, as you say not good for them. However, in this case the set has not been dived for a few years, (it is not mine) and I needed to give the ends a damn good clean in the ultrasonic bath. As it happens it was a good thing as some of the hoses had perished and need replacing.Still, keep me busy for a few evenings when the spares arrive! I'll let you know if there are any leftovers! Regards Neil
