The largest was last year or was it 2 years ago, anyway a piston con-rod and liner was just 0.7kg under 50kg. What a mother that was.

Good point and one i would of likely come up with myself, if someone else had posted similar.

Anyway it's mended now (Well almost!)
But has anyone had similar or can suggest another cause?
