    pretty pleased

    Well would just like to report that the engine is still going well and unlike our other engine that was pulling 12/100 on a run.

    I'm getting 10/100 and I'm not driving for economy if you catch my drift!!!

    So pretty pleased at the moment.....

    Good to hear! That economy sounds good, best we've done is 9.7L/100km but usually it's around the 11L/100km.

    That's great news. The only shame in this is it doesn't look like we will find out what was wrong with the old engine.

    we got a Aux tank gravity feed tank.....so I get around 950 actually the last tank was like 968 or something.

    tank was fitted for touring to extend the range a little further for the gove track.
