rikg24, you may get a better response posting in ''Technical - Campers'' where all your Westy woes will hopefully be resolved. :)

If the TüV has ran out over here it's 400 euro to get it tested.
I cleaned mine up, had it repainted then stuck 5 euro worth of gas before I mounted it up.
After a week the pressure hadn't dropped so I classed it as okay.
