 Re: new owner/member !
Hj rustygubber, same here, my D*LLY is a week old and teaching me a lot. Seems Citroens like 11mm and 14mm spanners where I'm used to 10mm and 13mm. Hoping to go to Witney tomorrow if I've got the engine running again - carb's currently off for cleaning/rebuilding which will hopefully cure the kangaroo style flat spots when accelerating
