    As for easy ... yes sent them off (well Gowanlochs did) and then they came back minus some of my money :(

    I guess the effectiveness is up to the person talking ... I can't say if it helped my engine as we did so much but it was a great little motor at the time
    Ok, interesting. I'd be interested to know how easy it'd be to do oneself and perhaps consider for next time.
    This one is just a bit of a refresh, as it's running really well in all other respects.
