I believe it should be a 6-sided 39mm (not 37mm!) socket - good thing I had not ordered one yet. Surprised no one spotted my mistake :) I believe something like this should be fine? http://tinyurl.com/y9mxcoyb How about this, it's an impact socket so should be ok. 3/4" drive so you might need ...

A given amount of fuel has a fixed amount of energy. If the ambient temperature is lower, more of the fuel is used to generate heat giving less for mechanical work. Doesn't quite work that way as what we're trying to achieve is a change in pressure (or pressure ratio). And a lower temperature also ...

It's a teeny scooter.

Yes but the same laws apply, I see seasonal variation on all my bikes and car.

Does the plug get wet with fuel, any oil on the plug?

Alleluja, at last. "heating up the incoming air" Also the engine, oil and surrounding environment.

Me too, excellent.

25 years ago I was working 150 miles inland from Mackay, I think they got it bad.

When you say it turns the engine, does it do it at the same speed as before, and for how long before it stops? Do you just do short journeys. I have a Yamaha 1100 and 2 years ago I had a similar problem. Firstly I charged it with an old optimate for a week and the bike would start after turning for ...

Yes, the engine room was mayhem, changing filters ever 20 minutes, lasted for 3 days. Benghazi, Libya. Spent 6 years there.

Yeah, we only get those every few years when the winds blow hard from the desert. But that's about how often I wash the Jeep anyhow.

Been caught in a few sandstorms over the years, this one was 12 miles offshore Benghazi. btw photos taken midday.
