for those whose tubine is stuck solid. 1. remove pump (2 screws). That will give you space. 2. Use 18 mm six sided socket (from toolstation). standard 18 mm 12 sided will slip. 3. get a breaker bar, or extended rachet. (spray some wd40 on flow turbine) you should be able to get off.
@@goldgas1216 costco is a store which sells everyyhing its a American based company google it to find your nearest branch they do some good products at a reasonable price
Thanks for sharing. I’ve got a Baxi Platinum and an 18mm socket fits well but the whole cartridge is seized in the manifold…..I’ve tried a lot of force but it’s not moving. Any tips? Thanks.
Cheers mate, hope you're well. I started off selling boiler spares 16 years ago so had a good knowledge for inside boilers, learnt through reading manuals, taking boilers apart and re building, and just on the job really and now through social media. I've done no breakdown courses but heard good stuff about the manufacturer ones but couldn't say from personal experience
Great videos mate, plenty of detail explained well with useful hints and tips. Ideal for me as a new entrant to the industry.

6 sided 18mm socket is the perfect tool for the flow turbine.
Awesome, Thanks for the advice. I'll buy one and give it a try as mine is stuck totally ;-(
You are on about working smart not hard yet one twist and the condensate trap is out your way.makes removal 10 times easier.
That's great thank you. Got a spare boiler to swap turbine over from. Do I need to fully drain system. Baxi he 28
Any link where I can buy size make model any information please
Amazon or Google. 7-19mm universal socket or magic socket.
Gator is a popular one
Didn't work for me as previous person used loctite couldn't even undo it with grips
Great video. Where did you get the socket from,,?
