    After all this time the plastic is breaking down and you can smell/taste petrochemicals perhaps? China or glass always here. :)

    Getting Gwen the Mini to Run.

    Several times. But it only appears after a run. I want to believe it's the rocker gasket, but I can't find any oil ABOVE the plug well so far.

    I wondered, but I am always very careful, and I had the "leak" without pulling the stick.

    It is a HIF44 SU carb. I am willing to believe it's the HG, but I cannot track the oil down from there so far. If it was a cracked head etc I would expect other symptoms too. No blue smoke or steam either, but the radiator was a bit low when I checked it yesterday so I suppose it is possible...

    Well maybe all in the garden is not so "rosy". :( We have a mystery oil leak. Meet Cyl #3. Why is there a pool of oil in the plug well? Ahhh its dripping down from the gasket above you cry! Err.. Nope! I cleaned it all up with brake cleaner and put a line of absorbent paper taped across the...

    ...that the weekend has passed reasonably quietly. Neither of the G-kids has killed the other, nor come to any harm while in our care. :) I have to take them to school tomorrow, and their Mother picks them up at close of play. We pick them up from school on Wednesday and their Dad will have...

    I meant that "ANYONE" can win, and this bloke that had been living in a hostel dorm with 15 others spent £15 on the OMAZE lottery won the big prize. So don't be surprised if Abdullah wins the Euromillions £210Mill. ;-)
