i didn't get to speak to you mate, i meant to but you left.

power is about spot on what i thought it would be, has it had a new actuator lately? it may be worth a check up at NMS if so.

ps does it leak oil from passenger side of block? pm if it does, it's an easyish fix

the old girl still looks good

Yep had new actuator before i bought it , not really noticed any leaks on block but not looked , oil level always good ,it does have a leak from somewhere tho and im thinking it could be gearbox as i have quiet a few spots in the garage .

You should of come over and said hello when i put it on the rollers , sure we'll be in the same place again soon .
