Old technology see, remember when they first went from oil based to water based and the bird poo fooked everyone's cars up :lol: was it Esther ransid who had to fix them? :mrgreen:

I got diesel in the fuel station yesterday and the woman I paid remarked on how shiny my red 1 is 8) I mentioned the lacquer but she probably thought 'shut up geek' or something :lol:

Finished at 2pm today (shhh mums the word :-)) so i brought shitface in the factory and removed both belts, ran it up and it is still tapping away like woody woodpecker :roll:

I would say a Duff injector or fueling parameters are way out, 700 miles since i cleared the learns, no fault codes present.
