All now secured thanks to Carl/mechanical_repairs who had one.
Suddenly had brainwave to contact...
Muchas gracias to others supplying O- rings, parts nos. eBay links etc.
Forum could do with its own online parts warehouse, stock system, knowledge base, whatever, that substitutes all the content of threads in eg last year as ppl break, with a spreadsheet; anyone looking, go online & see instantly who has what, since when; when item has been taken, system deletes & increments down to zero. Column headings cd be alphabetical or keep thread categories and list within those.
So instead of posting shout " breaking, pm me with yr reqmts", breaker/supplier enters under eg wiring loom "1"., web page displays "wiring loom - 1 available -pm person z", searcher sees "1 available", click on & see who has, then pm etc. Would enable instant overall picture of state of availability within forum. If no availability, those knowing supplier bung in clicky for recommendations (right down to robbing bar stewards if you are desperate) as alt option.
Would also be useful to see where group buy would be worthwhile. Eg shortage of radiators >>>> bulk order w Advanced Radiators.
Could be a useful student project. Must be some sucker out there looking for a course project....
