    Hi, My '65 bus leaks petrol when on or going up a hill and the tank is full. I've gone away the last weekend and the smell lasted throughout the weekend, making it an unpleasant experience, as well as obviously a potential fireball. My guess is that the vented cap is a bit too vented? I parked...

    One for the VZi traffic coppers. How long would it take from getting caught on a fixed speed camera to getting a letter with either a fine/summons? And no orphans died at the bus stop ;)

    OK, first up, I'll just say that what I'm about to ask is without me having got under the vehicle yet - because the floor's pissing wet and the weather won't allow me to just yet. That said, I wanted to get a heads-up on ideas ... I have a 73 Karmann Ghia that has been sat on the drive for most...

    I put high octane stuff in my car and my Q is - is any one manufacturers better than an other? I usually put Texaco in (as our local station is that) but I've heard that the Shell duel is better. ANyone got a view/knowledge or otherwise? :)

    Due to the camper being on the road the Passat's sitting looking lonely so we've decided to part with her. It's a shame 'cos she's a lovely car, solid and reliable but we just don't use her. She's a lovely dark blue and looks fab. She's on Ebay if you want to see pics - item no. 110349909433...
