I dont really get the point?
You are blowing liquid solder over the pcb?
A little desolder braid would deal with that task.

thats just air to blow the old solder away, plus dont got that braid
One sure fire way to fu.k up a PCB! levering and pulling at the board with a screwdriver could crack circuits, Blowing cold air on solder just cools it and solidifies it straight away! There are cheap suction pumps available for this very job.

Replaced both relays in my PAS with no problem.
But I just wonder where all the solder is going, im sure some particles will end up inside the motor (Time will tell)

YET being the operative word!,
Unfortunately most of us are living in locations where access to simple tools like desoldering wick is next to impossible unless you can just happen to find that one shop in the whole city that still supplies it - then you have to drive to it and park the car without being towed away or (gasp) use public transport.

no mail, no phone, no water, no electricity, only generator on petrol and internet
Sure, but if i was so well organised i would probably get somebody else to fix my car and be using my time management and organisational skills to rule the universe.
Instead i am sitting here wasting time on the internet in my underwear.
Underwear? No need to get all fancy.
