  1. I did . Spud ported my 390 . In standard trim it was not as aggressively ported as the older 385 that I had stolen but now its as good if not better . Bottom line though its not as good as a 395 . I am lucky as I have both . 390 runs 28" 3/8 and 395 runs 36" .404 so different jobs .

     

    Cool. I used one for a few minutes just playing around a few years ago in America. That was modified too by a guy I met in California, who showed me a bit a about porting. Never got any done by him 'cause I couldn't then get them to the UK on the plane.

     

    Here he is...

  2. Yes, that's right. Some kind of complex pressure surge caused by debris hitting the underside of the tank caused it to rupture. The leaking fuel was ignited by either contact with hot parts of the engine or sparking from damaged wiring in the wheel well.

  3. Anybody remember 15 years ago, an Air France Concorde ran over a piece of metal that had fallen from a previous departing aircraft. One of the tyres exploded puncturing a fuel tank. There was a fire and the plane crashed shortly after takeoff.

  4. Had it go from normal level to halfway to max in just 1200 miles

     

    Where's normal level then?

     

    Roughly what volume increase would you say? How long did it take you to cover 1,200 miles and what sort of driving.

     

    There are other things that could be causing it. Leaking injectors or high pressure fuel pump?

  5. It's a total joke.

     

    In the summer it's too hot and the rails buckle.

    In the autumn leaves fall on the rails.

    In the winter the points freeze.

    In the spring the tracks get flooded.

     

    Trees, I'm sure you will agree, are pretty widespread across much of the planet. How do we struggle so much with these things on our tiny temperate island, when the rest of the world appears to carry regardless with far more extreme conditions.

  6. We stock 0.25, 0.73, 1.0 & 2.0 bulk bags and what they are saying is we will have to refer to them all as just a bulk bag and your not allowed to say what it's capacity is or what it might weigh who will buy like that I certainly wouldn't can just see the conversation on the phone.

     

    You'll have to call them small, medium, large and XL.

     

    Volume approximately equal to 0.25 M3 etc.
