Red hot Favorit action there Yoss, well done. I once spilled a whole container of used oil on my drive, after the wind got under the cardboard I was using to "protect" the drive. 

The stain is still there. I've sold the house now so meh. 

Have you noticed any more oopmh from the shiny new cylinder head or is it business as usual? I always think these things are going to make a massive difference (eg cleaning out the inlet manifold on a diesel) and I can never tell the difference. 

I once forgot to put the sump plug back in one of my Landcrabs and poured five litres of new oil in and straight out of the bottom again which is worse than spilling used oil. This is when I still lived at home so it was in a council car park. I tried hiding it by always parking in that spot but it was quite obvious. 

 

And no  I haven't noticed any real difference in power but I haven't really tried yet as I'm sort of running it in so trying to keep it below 3k rpm. It's a Pierburg twin choke carb (it's actually a Jikov licence built version of the Pierburg. Makes no real difference but knowing it was made in Czechoslovakia makes me feel better). When you really put your foot down the vacuum opens the second throttle and you can feel it pick up and go. That's the bit I've been trying not to use. 

It goes well enough. Being only 850kg helps.
