My ETEC cost hardly anything to run at the moment.

Can you slip down to the barracks at bulimba and get military fuel. Is it cheaper than 115c/ltr ;D ;D ;D

So what we are generally saying is that there is a problem with the E-Tec & that you are owners of the beasts so this is first hand info. :'( :'( :'( :-[ :-[ :-[
I am glad that I purchased the 90 JohnSu 4St. No dramas yet.
And as for the boys in camo on the duck, from their gear they are probably a US Marine Recon Unit so ya will have to go a bit further than Bulimba Barracks.

Scott - lol yeah she went well for the first run. Went up to Caloundra for a bit of a burl. Got a bit worried about all these strange noises I kept hearing while idling through the skids - Turned out they were birds whistling - Just never heard anything like that with the Yammie 2 stroke ;D ;D ;D 8-)

All up I did 55nm and topped up with 40lts - gotta be happy with that for a new engine.


Bring on the Spannos :P


Cheers

Greg
