I have a door to run down to Malcolm in St. Leonards very soon and that means I'll be passing your door, practically :D

So, if anyone can get said engine to near me, then the job's a good 'un. The engine can travel down with me.

My visa for Yorkshire has expired. It was revoked when I applied for my Geordie one :lol:


You'll have to sneak through God's Own Country very quietly then, or the Tyke's 'll 'ave yer!

I could really give that autobox some much needed love John :wink: :lol:

In fact, I'd adore it and make it the happiest autobox in the whole world!

Going to Southampton either this or next week as well....

Yes, I think you can assume the time-bomb has begun to tick in earnest at 98K John :cry:

I'm hoping that my investigations may well reveal some preventative measures that can be taken to safely defuse the time-bomb and extend the life of the 'box...

If your present 'box does die in the next few weeks, can I have it please for ongoing investigations/forensics?
