me and a big pair of grips have to dissagree with you

 

the pipe isnt quite as round as it used to be

 

oh... and we knocked the bloody strainer/filter off the bottom too

BASTARD!!!

 

broke it

 

 

it wasnt in verry good condition when i started... looked like a well chewed pen...

 

 

got a mint one in another engine but i know a few people have tried to get this out and it just isnt comming...

 

 

can you still buy these things from somewhere

boil the kettle and pour some boiling water around the block where tube goes in
