Whats wrong with ligher fuel? - Thats what we used to use for all the recalcitrant Triumphs and Commer Vans. That's the trouble with things these days, everything has to be niche marketed

Moderator,
I want to complain about this post.
It centres on the use of one word: "Commer". My father liked them, and Bedfords, and Austin J4 vans. They ruined my childhood. And I did not expect to come onto this forum and be confronted in such a mindless and shocking way.
Dearest moderator, is there not some inbuilt mechanism whereby you could ban words like "Commer" and "Bedford".
Oh, the hours being driven along the road by my mother or father, and having to hold the engine cowling up so that they could futter about with gubbings underneath. Never being phased at being stopped by the police as they wondered what was wrong with the vehicle. Never giving it a second thought when my mother went round a roundabout the wrong way because she was so intent on getting something right in the engine. Oh, bugger, I hate them, with a vengeance. Why could they not have just a got a Hillman Minx, or a Morris 1000, or an Austin Cambridge like other seemiongly sane people?
Please delete this whole post now, and I shall not return until it is completed -someone phone me and let me know please. Away to lie down, yes I know its bedtime but, still.
"Commer", piece of junk...
As to the spray, never heard of it. Have always used WD40 for those "not-wanting-to-start-moments."
