Hi Timbo
The problem was a holed piston which also damaged the plating on the way to Euro Lambretta in france 2013
caused by bad dyno setup and me not spotting it .

Never used aptec but have used langcourts a couple of times over the years and always been good.

I tried using Tino once but was something stupid like 2 weeks before I got a reply then it was going to be a 3 month turnaround.
