    You'd certainly never get my old 'party' chillum in there. It was about the
    same shape/size as the bottom piece of a clarinet!

  3. It's probably just about big enough for injectors... I had a similar
    size one for cleaning the carbs on the FJ, but couldn't get the body
    completely immersed. Picked up an industrial one on ebay about 5 times
    the size for £50 :)

    I had one as big as I needed - my mother was a physioterrorist and had
    an array of ultrasound therapy machines. All you needed was a bath of
    water and something to hold the sound-head so it kissed the surface of
    the water.

    Put it on moderate power, and it cleaned Al-fin barrels, etc.

    Mind you, I had to be careful not to get caught at it...

  8. S'all-right I had to google too.

    I wouldn't mind one of Aldi's cleaners if they were big enough to clean
    dive regulator bits in. I've given up cleaning carb jets at the moment.
    Although the time will return I expect.

    You need to be queuing up, outside, before opening time. By 20 past
    opening, the good stuff is usually sold out.

    Also, be mindful [1] that some offers are regional.

    [1] I was going to write "bear in mind"... but I don't want you in my
    mind!

    Stay back, or the boots come off!!

    Fry & Laurie reference. Not worth explaining, really; if you didn't
    get it it won't be funny. But imagine it in a Stephen Fry voice
    anyway.

    Nah, Shepton Mallet and Leighton Buzzard are much more amusing, IMHO, of
    course.

    I like Throop. It sounds like a disease, possibly of sheep.
