Thanks Ian.

No that is one I haven't tried. Thanks. So far I have only struck rudeness so even a helpful suggestion is much appreciated Will give them a go. Cheers

Has anybody got one of these little motors and/or know where to get parts? I know parts are hard to get but am just wanting some basics ie water pump impellor and gasket. I have e-mailed a crowd in the states that have a parts list on the net but so far no reply Thanks Ian
