Hello J
Welcome, good to see you have decided to join the less responsable members of society. Just please don't add more to the lengthy discussions on here on Otter switches, I don't think I could handle it!

.
The Escort seems to be going well, though it looked as if it was a bit of a handfull at the weekend.
Best regards
Mike

im going to be honest......what the hell is an otter switch?

it did get a little, how can i put it, convulsing sphincter comes to mind.

but hey ho, it happens. just glad it happened at 50mph instead of 100.

Hi J
In keeping with the rest of this thread, this is a F**king Otter-switch, well a F**king Otter-switch thread http://www.v8forum.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=8928 we have had a few of them over the years, they seem to go on a long time a very long time for what is basically a switch that closes when it gets hot and opens when it gets cold!!!

And now for a "I've just changed my oil in my 3.5 litre P6 rover for 10/40 synthetic why are my tappets rattling?"
Best regards
Mike

ok, are you just trying to confuse me now?
i get the otter switch thread, was a bit long winded

and im guessing that the oil is too thin for it to get to the rocker gear?

Hi J
Yup Otter switch and thin oil threads, they go on and on and on and on . . . . . . . and I always end up reading them in the hope they will get interesting at some point, and they don't!
