too right Albert - I was whistling a chirpy tune while I mopped it all up.

I mention it just in case anyone else is putting off sorting their wobbly filler neck like I was...

I thought I was the only one that dumped my sump in Halfords car park. Always go there and just open plug if I need to drain old stuff out - bowl a waste of time :D

Er...just kidding :wink:
