It's all right I ain't that clever, I swapped my Sky boxes round yesterday, so I had to get the sky card paired up to the right box. Went through the procedure with Sky and left the box on to adopt the card. It still hadn't adopted the card swap in the afternoon, so I thought it was because I'd not connected the telephone line to the sky box. Went out to homebase bought a telephone line extention, plugged everything in, incl hiding the cable properly.

Phoned sky up again, put the sky card in the slot on the box, then the lady at the end of the phone told me to open up the flap on the sky box and insert the card in the CORRECT slot. Doh!

Still it's saved you making an expensive mistake, we've all done it, and I'm happy to help

Talking of possibly demonstrating my lack of knowledge I cleaned my K&N with normal carb/brake cleaner then gave it a very light spray of air filter oil. I can't see why I need K&N stuff other than to line their pockets but hopefully someone could confirm.

no, don't clean it with that it's too aggressive... Look for dry cleaning fluid, it's fairly cheap and then give it a little wash with that, then oil the filter...
I've had lots of K&Ns in my cars and bikes and I've rarely cleaned them.
