    Timing belt replacement based on age?

    My fiesta belt I changed after 13 years of service. Did low miles probably around 45k on it. Good thing I changed it cuz the water pump impeller was broke, for the last 4 years I always wondered why when I'm driving on the motorway temps are fine in 5th gear but drop to 3rd gear and redline it...

    Waxoyl black Vs clear?

    Seen these waxoyl tins in black and clear and wondering if there is any difference between them other than the colour? The black seems to be on sale for almost half the price Vs clear. Can black be used inside cavities or is it clear only?

    Cavity wax spraying?

    Ordered the 5/16 hose, it was cheaper than the 1/4 hose and comes with the quick connects. The 3/8 hose was more expensive and doesnt have quick connects which needs to be purchased as extras Hopefully the 5/16 hose is sufficient. Got it in 10m length

    Are euro airline quick connect fittings all the same size regardless of hose diameter? As in does the connection side plug into the existing quick connects on air compressors?

    The noxudol 700 has arrived today, got 7 cans of the stuff, will get a hold of the sprayer next and then do some research on a compressor before ordering it. Looking so far at a 50L 2.5hp unit but will need to read up more

    Been looking at that sg18 sprayer, does that use the Venturi effect to suck up the wax from the bottle or is it a different system where it pressurises the bottle?

    Thanks for the feedback. Iv just ordered 5 of those 1L noxudol 700 cans hopefully that's enough to do the sills and doors of the car.
