The best the experts could come up with was, That the close proximity to a power pylon was interfering with the welder. I kid you not, The company spent tens of thousands of pounds on experts from BOC and a few universities. The problem with brake cleaner is it can not be used in an automated process. Honestly mate at that time there was no cleaner available that was good enough to do the job required. Laughable as the answer was, there could be an element of truth in it as my time spent working on boats has shown that boats mooed up near electric pylons or supply lines tend to corrode much more then those not, I,m definitely no expert but thats my own observations, I,m just glad deker has found a local bender good luck with it , BOAT = Bring Out Another Thousand Quote Link to post Share on other sites

In recent weeks i have had chats with two Harley Davidson owners who both had the same issue, The bikes would stop for no apparent reason and only restart when pushed a short distance down the road. Both bikes cut out in close proximity to new 5G masts. Now neither of these blokes knows each other and are at different ends of the Country. Spooky hey Lol. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Deker 3,453 Posted August 16, 2023 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2023 Ok, I am still looking for someone to help please. I did have someone but circumstances have changed and this seems unlikely now. I need a person or company with the equipment and skills to help please, there have been numerous suggestions of how to fix the bent rails, but I'm not personally up to it, so I need help. Any suggestions greatly appreciated. Thanks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Strange coincidence saw a lad I knows scooby parked up in a lay-by the other morning and when I asked him what was up he told me the same thing, every time he drives past the mast down the lane his immobiliser kicks in and te cars stops until he pushes it a short distance ??? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
