My kindly MOT man carefully removed the build up of green moss type substance from the Pick-up wiper blades before passing it..... It didn't get used much last year and lives under a Fatsia Japonica bush.

Ah, just noted the higher M numbers, so 70 would be good for 1144's

What is this 90 mph, to which they refer? Lucky to venture over 70 in both my cars! Obviously don't need Mintex pads!

Where did you drive to in your Triumph today ?
To the shop down the road to get a paper and some bacon for lunch.... Purely to move it on the drive so that I could fit a replacement starter solenoid.

1/6d for the half gallon to fill up my old Honda 50 back in 1967.

Id imagine the bearings in Mark's old pump feel rough to spin as well...
Yep, put the body in the vice and span it up with a stripping wheel in the electric drill... SKREEE.

Note to self, Must up my door repair prices.. £147 to fill my work van. £1.799 litre, diesel.

I've got some. Could pop one in the post for you.

Did all the above, no difference. Ran for a mo' with belt removed, all quiet. New pump, all good.

Pump....

This is not a question, but a solution.
I've been putting up with a shriek from the water pump on my Herald pick up (and in it's previous life as an estate) for some time. Always on application of a fairly heavy right foot.
Enough was enough, ordered the correct 1500 Spit pump from Paddocks and fitted yesterday.
Bliss! no more shriek.
Apologies for an innocuous post.
