    Earlier in the thread there was a comment about "imploding" your tank.
    That actually happened to me. Yonks and yonks ago, before I saw the light and the error of my ways, I had an MQ Patrooool. One of my bros and I were coming back from Fraser and unbeknownst to us the breather clogged with sand and jelly fish etc.

    Before we realised the problem the fuel pump sucked the tank almost inside out .

    Just extended the fuel tank breather on a customers 130CC. It WAS sitting attached to the LH end of the rear crossmember outrigger and is now attached to the rear of the cabguard about level with the bottom channel of the cab rear window

    What a stupid place/ idea for a fuel tank breather on a vehicle with an electronic / precision fuel system

    110 sat in our drive

    they washed it and put it back together correctly apart from spot lights but that may be a failed relay.

    lets see if its all good over next few days.

    what a relif, not bad 22 days for a basic service

    standard service price, the rest was warrenty including a few other things that we have not mentioned.
    some things minor but irratating (steering wheel, remote) some but more important (engine rattle, air con) but they were fixed, pity it took so much work and stress on our part to fix just one item.
