STOP SHOUTING
Have a look on the recal notices, and also try the blocked fuel strainer trick... _________________ For great insurance deals on 4x4s, imports and more, contact Adrian Flux :

Have a read through the recall section of the forum - it's about the 2nd or 3rd one down on the main page.
The oil strainer is in the sump, there's a trick when you can add a couple of litres of oil in the sump, but have a read through the recal section first _________________ For great insurance deals on 4x4s, imports and more, contact Adrian Flux :
