get a sort of knock / clunk noise when slowing and coming to a halt and when i go up slight kerb on to the drive. someone I had in the car said they felt a knock/vibration in the footwell ? Had front tension rod bushes done a few years back and had poly ones put in. Also running Tein suspension which is pretty firm. Could this be the Tensions rods ? or something else ?

Would anyone know the flow rate of the stock one?:biggrin:

Reason I'm asking is its 280 miles either way so need to sort out time off from work etc. Just gonna have to bite the bullet and go visit Jeff and see what's what with this engine so I know where to go from here :thumbup1:

I know the risks involved with using this stuff. mask / gloves and full body protection.
