it blew number three injector seal - or it would seem its been gone for quite a while  :rolleyes: :lipsrsealed:

problem is you need to remove number 2 to remove number 3

good old vauxhalls  :rolleyes:

yep, you have guessed it, to remove number 2, you gotta remove number 1  :laugh: :grin:

Thankfully as it was on my bill, the lads improvised, whipped number 2 out by pulling the stud out ( risky put it worked  :lipsrsealed: ) as we only had 2 seals in stock  :whistle:

as for the mileage - showing 108k  :rolleyes:

I know, but rolling road would probably finish it off.  :grin:

Nah, sure it'll be fine now....... at least while you're indoors and not driving it anyway.
