Just had a beer with him and forgot to ask, reckon your looking at the 30 notes mark, but the result was nothing short of amazing, sump was spotless, gearbox was mint as, and generally mint

I ususally kept the engine mint and clean so didnt think it would make much difference but it deffo did.

It was very shiny when Fad had it done

I forgot that you'd had it done tbh, might see if there's anyone round here who can do it before Trax.

got the pressure hose thingy out onmy engine and it came upa treat!!!
didnt realise how dirty it was untill it was gleaming! (make sure you cover the Plugs witha plastic bag! ;-)

also then go over the hoses with some wd40 on a cloth.
and then use some elbow grease to just polish it up!

:-)
