They'll probably say its been feeding a leak.

To be fair it sounds like a skeleton wánking in a buscit tin, so i'd say it's been doing more than feeding a leak!

I think it's been crap from day dot!

Piston cylinder is knackered. Looks like piston has been incorrectly fitted to cylinder they just don't curl over like that in use. Cylinder initially presented on an angle then twisted straight up to fit.

Lot of cheap chinky seals about doubt they handle heat too well. If you drive around at normal height may have got extra month out if it

Rest looks in good order though. Storey Wilson shows the method how to wangle the piston in on an angle in his video.

Did you get her number - is only reason she bumped into you

Not trusting to luck either with that address, jesbus...and to think posties have managed to deliver with the scantest of info through the ages.

2 things happened today..

#1 EAS plummeted to the bumpstops on the way home..

#2 some clueless cow in L322 was parallel parking behind me and shunted me in the arse which has warped my bumper all to shít..

Had to bite my teeth with that one..

I'm pretty sure the valveblock needs rebuilding, as the compressor was scalding hot when I pulled over...

So it must be leaking, as the bags are fine..

Well

Probably not now, after driving home 30mi on the bumpstops!

Bastard!

@pwood999 has a nice test rig!
