the compression test will reveal all.

It does sound like water seal failure though, as thats what happened to me:( so quite possibly you\'ll need a re-build

there\'s the meet at crail on the 18th of April. Other than that at the moment there\'s not too much with meets at the moment.

I think were just starting to get enough cars for a regular meet up here:D though most of the time there\'s a few cars that break before the meet :rolleyes:

what do you think guys, regular meets soon?
