Well...

I've had my facelift mig for a year now and she has just passed the MOT first time. The only minor advisory was a small leak on the rocker cover but that has been cured with a new gasket.....

I think any fluid leak spotted by the tester is an advisory (hazard to other road users) but would never be bad enough to be a fail. I will check tho as I may be wrong as it is my bro who was MOT tester I am just an aircraft mech.

new rocker cover gasket now fitted by my brother in law (ex vx mechanic)....

Everything back to normal now.. Just 1 question remains, i've had my Mig for just over a year now and it hasn't needed any oil in the engine. Is this normal. My old mig used to drink the stuff like it was going out of fashion.....
