    Sorry to hear that, you must be gutted & slightly miffed! What does the dealer think the problem is, and more importantly, what are they doing to make things right?

    even someone as thick as me won't fall for that one twice,

    They havn't got it going yet and their not sure why it's not running but they did mumble something about oil being sucked into the fuel injection system if the oil level approaches maximum on the gauge ?????
