Well car went in for its mot today and sailed through no advisaries just ran out of petrol in the mot station ah ah. Anyway he put a gallon in and all ok so came home happy only to see several nohrs later a small pool of petrol on the drive ahhhhhhh bloody hell. It seems to be coming from the pipe from the filter so need to sort that this sat then go out for a blast sunday.

That would be a failure! How ironic you get a pass certificate and minutes later it's unroadworthy... should be easy to sort out though.

Make sure you use the high pressure pipe, an MOT station replaced the same bit of pipe on mine at an MOT and they didn't and it blew again. Fortunately it was when I got back to my garage after driving back from last years BBWF

Great news Jon. Nothing better than a new ticket on the wedge. Enjoy it.
