OK, I'm convinced. I've got the head off to install new valves (see pic) so I might as well drop the pan. Thanks. Jud

I would want to get it out of there Jud. I bought a 82 Chevy years ago that was used by a salesman for the company I worked for. I knew it had a knock in the engine and I made the dealer who usually bought all of the cars know about it. They declined to bid on it once I told them about it and I picked it up pretty cheap.

It had a 305 V-8 and once I pulled the engine and took it apart...

Who else IS to blame other than the incumbents?

The Tories were the 14 year incumbents that led to the rise of Reform, and were rightly blamed for not all, but a significant number of things, and booted out.

Extraordinary results, especially the by-election. But if the electorate think nothing has changed and/or things are getting worse then they blame the present incumbents.

Anyway let's see what these Reform led councils actually do.

C'mon, fess up; who voted Reform?

Hellooo -- hi there, ✌️👍👋👏🤣

Thanks, you've put me right off the Porsche! More realistically, I still like the look of the Polestar. Trouble is the road fund has now increased a lot - our diesel V40 is still only £20. Also ev and hybrid cars seem to be getting larger and larger wheels and, together with run flat tyres and no spare, tyre prices are much higher e.g. a friend with a Lexus hybrid has just paid £350 f...
