Since then I have had some sizeable 'burps' of oil to judge from the state of the underside, and I am inclined to think that my system is actually overloaded if the oil level comes up to the top mark on the new dip stick. Since realising this and not filling above half way, I think the problem is fixed.

I just started using Mozilla, (my old Eudora had some sort of a senior event) The problem is I can no longer highlight the brief relevant part of the message then hit " reply", so I then have to manually delete all the irrelevant stuff from the earlier part of the thread. Life gets tedious, don' it? I notice a few others are now using Mozilla and reposting the whole thread, loading up Matt's forum unnecessarily. Anyone found an answer yet? Graham
