Hey Guys,
I'm having this strange raw fuel smell. Obviously it smells like petrol but it's not leaking from the fuel filter nor CIS system. All joints are dry and yes, I've put my nose to them.

I would highly recommend this $29.00 US disk as opposed to the $250.00 factory disk.
I'm sold! Me and my friend's 931s both need new clutches soon. Where do you buy the Ford disc from?
Thanks ... |
