And W is a vowel in Welsh, along with Y, so Welsh has more vowels than English.

The head feed pipes were replaced with good ones at the Dutch world meeting ('97, mebbe 1500-2000 miles ago...), after one of the brazed-back-on unions to the big banjos either side of the crank fell off. It didn't do that. What it DID do was completely cover the back of the van with oil.

There's no air box in existance for an AK350 with an Ami 6 engine  The ami 6 one is just plain wrong and nothing else will fit between the bonnet and the frankly massive carb! Taking a pipe either down to road level or into a box will be the way forward, Box would be more eco and sociable  Yes there is, this has an Ami 6 engine
