    None of my Ferraris have leaked any oil on my nice new garage floor, I am very surprised. Perhaps I should see if they have any left in them?

    So has your 308 been all de-leakified now, or it just hasn't dropped any?

    Substitute "hose it down" for "sell the contents on eBay" and I reckon you're onto a winner.

    meh, doesn't look any different to the kwaka 250 i was riding in 1990.


    .... except mine had those cool knobbly tyres and hand guards and mud-spoiler and grasshopper-deflector. :cool:

    well... seing as his 308 is the only Ferrari he's got that I haven't worked on (merely estimated for several leak repairs)...

    I thank you for the compliment!

    Clicked on to this link wondering what could be left to be said about Brocky's demise and I see an oil leak is under discussion.

    I should have known. :p

    yeah, well... "some" people seem obsessed by something (tiny thing) that happened nearly 4 years ago..... and their obsession grew from a "no blame" problem anyway...

    I blame the parents though...
