This could be a handy hint for the very tight d shackle pin, just put a rubber o ring on the D shackle pin and it won't bind up tight, undoes with ease. Lance C

Pauline and I were thrilled to see these great creatures leaping for some meat near Darwin, but on reflection, we total disagree with the practice. Not a good thing to train these killers to seek food around boats!! We're hearing of too many attacks these days. Cheers, Bob

We had a loose wire going into the regulator PLUS I was reading the little meter wrong. I thought it showed me what was going into the battery - NO it is what is coming out of the .!!!!!!!!!! Learnt a lot from a fellow caravanner. He sorted it and my thinking. Cheers all for input.

Plenty of gas in bottle, Gas is fine to fridge and no gas leaks. Any ideas why there isnt any gas to the cooker ?. Much appreciated...
