And the big question. What causes them to burn like this

My baby lives

$11 & one capacitor later and she runs like new to me. Happy days have returned. Time to turn a bowl

Three days. That was quick. It sounds like IGA has a refrigeration unit in need of a capacitor that has strangely gone missing.

Fess up. Where did you find one so quickly ?

did you see me in the act .... ?

Hope you deleted the surveillance for me.

In all seriousness - thought I'd ask the local sparky. He lives out of town but has his business in town. Went there first thing this morning as I was not able to get him in time Friday and he is not in over the weekend.

He had rows of the things 5's 10's 20's 50's (what ever those measurement thingies are)

I needed an 8. He said "Oh I dont seem to have one" ... to right he didn't, not after I pulled the last one out of the 5's pile.

All good now ... one happy chappy

Hi Dave,
Try an Electrical Wireman, they just may have one.
Or.
Just go for the VSD.

Got it fixed thanks issa. Would have loved to have gone the variable speed but when I could fix it for $11 and had to break I to the kids money box even for that .....

$11 was the fix

I'd have to raid every kids money box in Jerilderie to raise that.

I do love on the Newel Hwy. maybe I can install a pay both and boom gate out the front of the house.

That could raise a bit of money

Whoops that was meant to be 'live' on the Newel. Had not taken to selling myself yet
