Turbophil had a butt plug made that seemed to be suitable. He may have finished with it now and have it kicking around spare

Looks like the sea to me too.

In the pic third from bottom it looks like you're fixing the differential. Well that's how they were doing it on the Italian Job (original)

no wil , i was trying to fix the silencer back on ,we'd pulled into that petrol stn on the a45 just before the turnoff ,and as i drove in hit a bump and the rear rubber cotton reel sheared in half ,so i used the backing with the bolt on and fixed it solidly .then noticed if i touched the fuel hose some juice came out ,so cut that short and refixed it ,then colin ewas very generous and let me have a couple of foot of pipe at the pod to fix it .... thanks colin!

thanks andy ,appreciate it .

Split rubber, colin giving you a couple of foot? sounds dodgy.

Is it A-Series only? I think it should be...
So when some joey comes on here about how his 16v turbo vauxhall is great compared to ours, he can be given the 'bird'...
