It's too hot in the West Midlands too, I'm trying to polish the (rather flat) paint on my car so it at least looks presentable for MOT next week!

Isn't .05mm deck height just about the same as having zero deck height?  Huh

Well only one of the two allows the piston to not hit the deck height plate Wink

Hey Donny.
We had temps like that one Christmas, 52.1C. Made the roast lunch a bit warm (yep, I know it was stoooopid  Roll Eyes )

Here's something similar from our shady front porch from another year (south side, away from the sun here of course).



Take it easy until the breezes come thru again.
