I had intended on posting this a couple of weeks ago as I drained the petrol tank of the mog to replace the fuel with fresh stuff prior to going for an MOT.

A fetching shade of luminous yellow. It wasn't all that good as petrol (hence why I was changing it and have a pic to show you)

I took some very similar stuff out of my pressure washer which had not been used for a couple of years, it still makes a good cleaning fluid though.

Terry - either you need to drink more fluids or you really need to see a Doctor
