hell you have started that quick mate! Glad it looks like just the gasket. I would say after 1.5 years of stick it has done very well.

a LIL fishing village on the coast - Newcastle Upon Tyne

i used to use BP super unleaded plus (dunno what its called now) and then added octane booster to push it up to 101 Ron. Or Aviation Fuel is good shit, but a pain for day to day driving.

NEVER EVER USE SUPERMARKET PETROL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

it is like the dregs of the fuel world, id compare it to the English share of Guiness (the silt at the bottom of the vat)
