    If you click "SHOW MORE" in the description above your be able to see Links to the Tools 🔧🔨🔧 I use. Also Clickable Chapters📋 📙 throughout the video and other Links 🎬 that may be of interest. I've had a few viewers request where they can buy the tools they see in some of my videos but it's not very clear that the "SHOW MORE" tab has a lot of information in that may be of interest. Admittedly the amazon links are associated with me and I would earn a small commission which helps towards keeping the channel funded.

    Well done Mark. It galloped on a bit more than when I last watched it. I think you used some decent gauge steel. Plug welding is the safest and I seal over it some state using seam sealer and clamp/weld. But you have achieved what you set out to do, it runs and it’s safe. I must get one of those bleeders- more convents the easy bleed I had that needs a old tyre air supply.

      Thank you Patrick. I have since injected wax oil into the inside of the sill and under the car to try and keep some rust at bay. I remember the tyre bleeder lol, I had one. This pressure one is fantastic. Don't forget I add links to the tools in the video description. amzn.to/43FZB9M

    Hi Mark great job 😉 loved watching that press machine working. I have a question though I always thought the outer sills were not structural but the inner sills were🤔. I have just been removing the rust on the rear and the front of the outer sill on my ford c max 2008 .
    I found that the front of the sill under car is pretty rusty at parts but I was thinking it would be ok for mot as it's the outer sill ?

    • @CoatsandGaiters
      @CoatsandGaiters  Рік тому +1

      Thank you Alexander. Sadly the outer sill is structural I believe as every time I had had a small hole it failed an MOT and needed welding. I think my Fiesta had a small inch square hole and it was immediately failed. You can hide it like many do with fibreglass and filler but if the MOT guy clocks it he will probably fail it.
