[benking]

No lol. Think we got enough on our plate without adding that to the list!!inkeye:

Its going garage for that one, my mate is going to do that so if it goes tits up i can blame him lol. Plus its the only way i can get any warranty with the new engine and as i cant be sure if/when it was done on the new one im thinking its better to be safe than sorry anyway

 

[martinthrapston]
