  1. Sounds pretty normal to me. When coasting in gear no fuel is used therefore no heat being produced, combine this with a cold ambient temperature and the fact that the coolant is still circulating and loosing heat through the heater the temperature has got to drop.
  2. Is there such a thing as too much chocolate pudding?
  3. Went to the Doctors today and he told me I was colour blind. What a shock........ it came totally out of the orange. At least I can still enjoy my music...... Green Floyd, Pink Oyster Cult, Deep Yellow. I'll get my coat
  4. The wire on terminal 8 is the live for the pump which would be switched by a room thermostat if you had one as shown in the info for the old time clock. Connections: Red Live to terminal marked L on new time clock. Black Neutral to terminal marked N on new time clock. Brown live on old terminal 1 goes to terminal 3 on new time clock. (boiler live) Brown live on old terminal 8 goes to terminal 4 on new time clock. (pump live) The two Blue neutrals go to the terminal marked N on the new time clock. The earths all go together on the earth terminal. The Brown live that goes bewtween terminals 1 and 6 on the old time clock is redundant. Hope this helps.
  5. It'd be nice if you named them
  6. This might help http://www.rftraining.co.uk/how-do-immersion-heaters-work/
  7. A new boiler will be more efficient than the old Potterton. Fitting modern controls such as a room and cylinder thermostats will also save on the gas bill. Does the electric supply have economy7 ? If it does then fitting a timer to an immersion heater for the hot water will also reduce the fuel bill. As to fitting a combi boiler, if you fit an electric shower in the ensuite then you will probably have only an extra basin over what you have in your current house, which shouldn't really be a problem. The only downside of fitting a combi, is that when it breaksdown you will have no hot water or heating. When I did servicing and breakdown work for a housing association that is the reason why they only had conventional systems fitted, it reduced the emergency call outs. If the tennant had hot water, provided by the immersion heater, and had at least one room heated (gas fire) we didn't have to attend until the next day.
  8. Woohoo holiday booked :sun:
  9. Nobody wants to see you doing that.......
