now you would assume that the important B service missed would be a disaster,it was!!


i removed the fuel filter,never changed, the trans oil looked like black raw oil,never changed,the filter yuck, now the engine,wait for it,,oil looked like someone put ink into gear oil,the oil filter after i found it, and bought a 17mm crows foot spanner to remove it from ENGLAND!! it looked like it had its filtration medium reduced by sludge, well i did the right thing ,serviced it by the book and it runs ok, tip, if you go to private for service ask them if they have a 17 mm crows foot oil ,filter removal tool if not thank them.hopr this helps, john
