Wife rang this morning at 6:20am.

"The car is running like crap, smoking and pouring something out of it"

Thought instantly start running through my head, "WTF has she done to it", "Is it coolant, engine oil, gearbox oil??"

Luckily she'd only gone to the stables where she keeps her horse which is about 2 miles from where we live. I turn up, start to see a trail of what looks like coolant going into the car park.

Park next to it then i'm hit by a wall of petrol fumes!! Flick the ignition on to prime it, sure enough its blown the **** out of one of the injector seals!

So lucky it didn't end up in flames! There was fuel everywhere!

Managed to find a dealer near by (well 30 miles away!!) that has some seals, ordered all 3 seals for all 4 injectors so i've got spares. £64!
Collect them tomorrow and should have it back running by the afternoon hopefully

 

That was lucky hot engine and petrol leaks dont mix too well

 

Yeah could have been a lot worse!
