Just a Surrey/Sussex loop down to the Chalet for a compulsory, for me, sausage sandwich with plenty of brown sauce. Carried on round to Bury Hill and Petworth, for a last rip, of this year, down my favourite stretch of the A272, back to Billingshurst and home. With the tank brimming with 99 octane and a liberal splosh of Sta Bil, she's now covered up at the back of the garage awaiting some winter maintenance, which will have to wait for a while as project bathroom has just begun :eek .
Just had a look to see what that Sta Bil was all about, and was quite shocked to read that "the higher the fuel octane, the shorter the lifespan", because I would've thought with zero Ethanol in Esso 99, for example, and more cleaning additives, it would last longer?
More people are born because of alcohol than will ever die from it.
