Thanks, Tony. I thought it was to do with over-pressurising possibly - given the base-plate on these is solid (unlike the X246B) what will...
:-k Interesting. I dug out two of these a couple of weeks ago and noticed that on both of them, like yours, the tank bosses are at a slight angle...
:-k Well, the words are English ones but make little sense to me, Mike, or even if I'm the David you're referring to... However, I can say that I...
