Great! I was wondering what a fuel cat is too... must be like a tame version of an Esso tiger. "Put a pussy in your tank..." Looks really well sorted. Love the wheels too!  |

Lobbed a fuel cat into the H van. Didn't do it any harm (unless it somehow caused the distributor failure which isn't that likely!)
Mini has an in-line one (fitted before we got it) and has suffered no engine woes or valve seat recession in 18k. P'raps not snake oil? Not a lump of lead though! Does summit different...
Nice GT though. Very tidy.

That sure is clean! Cosmics are always a good choice on anything ;D I'd personally remove all the "doo-dads" though, particularly round the front. |

Lovely looking car, always had a soft spot for these. Cosmics look ace but I'd lose at least one of those front number plates! As for fuel cats, I'll keep my opinions to myself but mentioning them is a bit like saying 'is engine flush a good idea?' Gauranteed long debate over whether they're rubbish or not |

Mechanic's rule #1... If the car works, anything left on the floor after you finished wasn't needed in the first place |

Another lovely looking ADO16....and you're lucky enough to have a set of Cosmics (although I've just scored a set of Mk3 Cosmics for mine!).
