    Hello you 2 ! Having been a havid follower of narrow boats I have no idea how I missed you. I now only tend to follow James ( Slow Patrol) who you may have watched. He is on his second "build" now. I cannot add much about you that has been said by others but for sure you are on my watch list from now on. I am not sure if your dog is a full breed or crossed with maybe a terrier. She is delightful. My wife and I recently gave a home to a dull breed deer head and they do look similar. They are lovely members of one's life for sure and we love her deeply.

    Hi one person said they are water pump pliers but I have always called it a multi tool because you can adjust it for different diameters and you can use it on multiple jobs that you are working on stay safe and happy boating cheers Barry from Victoria Australia 🇦🇺

      You’re definitely find a decent one there’s so many on the market. My tip is to wait until winter. They go for a lot less.

    Hello Charlie, lovely to see you again, to answer both your questions. An adjustable spanner or adjustable wrench - sometimes also called a 'crescent wrench' is an open-end wrench with one fixed jaw and another movable jaw. Exhaust paste expands as it gets hot and dries out, thus guaranteeing no leaks even if the pipes are a poor fit. Hope that helps. Bet you were pleased to get a shower after all that.Big kisses to Basil.

    Great job will done. But as your Exhaust is so Close to your fuel tank. I would put some fire retardant material on top of your fuel tank to be on the safe side.😊

    • @charlieandbasil
      @charlieandbasil  5 месяцев назад +1

      That’s a really good idea. it’s always been really close to the fuel tank and it’s always been a bit of a concern of mine but I think you’re right. I’ll find something proof to put in between it. !!!!! Your a Genius

    They're water pump pliers, I worked and managed plumbers merchants for nearly 20 years and have sold shed loads of them. Well done, good job for someone learning as they go. Most people don't like getting mucky even though the job is within their capabilities that's a big reason why they take it to the pros, oh and no money as well 😁. Thanks for the vid

    • @charlieandbasil
      @charlieandbasil  5 месяцев назад +1

      Are got you that makes sense that there waterpipe pliers. They are massive haha
      I absolutely love doing the work myself to be honest. But I’ve only just learnt that I like doing it. Mostly form not having enough to spend on pros. But the more I do the more I learn and I can’t see my self not being on a boat for the rest of my life and I’m sure I’m gonna run into these problems again haha
      Yeah, the engine bay is so mucky. I cannot wait to get it all cleaned up.
      Big love for the support!! if I have any plumbing questions I’ll fire them your way !!!!!!!

    Great job, exhaust paste seals and lubricates the fitting, same as red oxide protects the hole you cut out from rust..Don’t replace your hole set, good for another few years, quality kit!!

    The advice is to “spread the paste liberally to all joints in the system and assemble joint immediately after application. Run the engine at low speed until warm and the paste will set to form a gas tight seal”
