    Thanks Suj, When your runners came away could you hear a blow from the manifold area? I have no blow and I can't see anything obvious from up top. Will definitely be changing it out though

    Ok so this issue is just strange, went out again to examine the manifold, couldn't see anything wrong with my phone torch in the dark. Said I would start it one more time to see if I could try pin point the noise.. 5 seconds after starting the knock completely disappeared :think: Took it for a...

    So today this happened JP cages bolt in.. nice bit of kit, not the easiest to maneuver on your own though! I sprayed the floor black to match yesterday, might get a full size carpet for it, not sure yet though. Also installed my seats, very happy with their comfort, look good too imo. They...
