Got new belts from EuroCrapParts today (not bad really, £15 for two belts as they have a sale on), fitted and no more shreaking :laugh:

As I took the rad out (which will need changing after next pay day), my heater is REALLY hot now, maybe it also needed a proper flushout as well :whistle:

Well at least it's not costing you any money if your welding it yourself Gaz, every time I repair/modify mine I just remind myself how much it would have cost if I'd paid somebody else to do it for me. :)
