,well after having my old 2 1/4 and my 200DI in my series 3 and it always coughed and spluttered at random times i finally decided to drain and clean the fuel tank and well cleaning it out obvously a load of gunge was found but it must of been sat for a while at its last owners house because i removed a body of a mouse that was flooting about in the tank and had been sometimes getting stuck on the end of the pickup pipe i was amazed by this find and that it was still in one peace and preserved in diesel, i mean it must of got in there when the vehicle was once in bits??
i just wondered if anyone else had anything like this happen??
but heres a few pics of the mouse![Confused :confused: :confused:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
no idea how it got in there but it might improve the performance of the engine now its been removed??!!
