(not that I'm the one going to the effort )That said - Brett did mention a single bush (or link or coupling or something) at the front end (I think) - can't remember which it was - am sure he would have made sure I put one in if it was important.Fingers crossed the rain holds off tonight - a nice "leisurely" cruise down the Peninsula might be on the cards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Injector cleaner/octane booster etc for that tank?Feel free to tell me I'm a dumb arse for using the P100 etc and lucky I didn't do something catastrophic if that's the case too.
