Yeah it's a lucky dip thats for sure. I'm going to do a leak down test
later today so I'll see whats going on!

I'm booked in for the 8th of December, my engineer seemed to think it
would pass ok but that doesn't mean much. It's a bit of a worry if it
wont pass, we may need to look at a retune to get it running cleaner.
Two cats! Food for thought! If i have a burnt out exhaust valve I
would have no chance of passing I don't think.

Cheers
Dave

I'll check the mail today Neil, talk soon... Cheers
