Thread: Losing my mind...

Water in your ear drum is a possibility too haha, also a air pocket in your coolant system or coolant passing to or from the overflow

if you don't want internal rust in the sill it'd be prudent to ask a panel beater what you can do to try and prevent it

Good result.
I'm pleased your like me and use a 2 litre container to catch 4 litres

Nothing like a bit of underestimation. I had to 'drain' a 300x300x200 mm hole with a tin can and 10l bucket. Almost filled the second 44gal drum.

Greetings @gadjetman,
1 litre almost exactly measures 100 x 100 x 100 or 1 cubic decimetre so your hole had a capacity of 18 litres. A 44 UK gallon drum holds a little over 200 litres. Clearly your hole was refilling itself from the bottom. I am surprised you ever caught up.

Yes, it was the bilge pump hole in a bouble skinned river weed cutter. The foreman would not listen to my explanation of why I really needed a pump.

Sill e cnut!

Just dry it out and spray fish oil into it is the old school way

I use the Super Cheap Auto spray can stuff. But, it can block drainage as well.

Yea its something you just need to keep an eye on even mud blocks them. Ive got a tube that goes on my underseal gun that you poke down into sills and pillars etc wit a nozzel that sprays sideways as you slowly draw the tube out of sill etc

Interesting read.

Yeah the Supercheap Auto Fish Oil Spray does leave a bit of a dead shark odour for a while but it's pretty well deoderised, not like the old fisholene of years ago which did hum for ages.

I think we've already had the old "you can rub it and scrub it and give it hell" in another thread not too long ago.......
