I'll have to start being nice to Mr DTM

Not that I have time now before the lakes to do anything drastic.

Has it finally thrown in the towel?

Came off a roundabout, foot hard down, revs went up, speed went down.  Just like a slipping clutch.

I will look at level tomorrow after I have bought more DIII

Dont know myself, will have a look. Im thinking back to the start of this saga and just wondering about possible causes of excess heat generation rather than under-cooling
