GQ clock
When you get the clock out of the dash, remove the cover. You will see a fairly large (compared to the other electronic components) blue capaciter. Resolder the joints between this and the PCB.

Pipe benders generally are the bow and arrow type. As you bend, the start point of the bend is under constant pressure from the former/die as the bend progress's. This concentrated force is what causes kinking and chrushing on thin waal pipe. Tube benders hold the tube and pull it around the former ...

Its a pipe bender not a tube bender.
If you want to bend roll cage material this bender will not do it
If you want to bend nominal bore pipe they are a good bender albeit expensive

Grab your local phone book and look up Festo, Norgren or SMC any of these 3 will have an assortment of cylinders.
Your will find one that will do what you require.
They will also be able to supply you with a valve to operate it and tube and fittings to suit.
Hope this is of some help Dave
