Yes, sorry, Steve - I misread your first sentence due to punctuation (having an English public school education has its disadvantages sometimes) - My apologies :smiley: And thanks, Deako.

And many thanks for the dimensions of the standard size can :drinking:

I wouldn't add your name to this list. There's a proper list in the group buy section. Unless you don't want to be disappointed I'd slap it down there because I'm sure this was a 'Feeler' list?

....

I'm holding back off the 'official' list in the other thread until I have visited Dubtek next week to see how things might fit my particular engine bay circumstances.

As we now have the required 20 people to be as fair as possible the list will remain open until 9:00am on Monday morning.

I will forward payment details out to everyone over the weekend.

This way you can all get you payments into Dubtek ready as soon as they re-open after the weekend so they can get the order into BSH.

Also worth reading StokeBalloon's note on the GB thread before you make your choice about the can size you select  :happy2:

Steve whilst I appreciate that everyone wants their kit yesterday and bearing in mind that this GB was only posted today, should you not wait a little longer than "till Monday morning" as I 'm sure a few more "stragglers" would sign up.

^^^ But at the same time we will also lose people, from experience these need to be completed while the idea is fresh in everyone's mind  :smiley:

a wee daft question it states that for those in areas where it freezes they must watch that this doesnt freeze the contents of the can is there anything avail to stop this happening or can i just make a wee thermal coat for the wee blighter?

I don't think that statement should worry you unduely as it's really a disclaimer primarily aimed at the North American crowd who suffer weeks of sub zero temps.

This issue first presented itself with the first can version that used steel wool. The wool was situated at the top of the can where the gases/vapours entered via the inlet hose. During winter with prolonged sub zreo temps, the can sometimes never fully thawed out (especially if journeys were short) and the steel wool with frozen condensed water in the mesh became a physical blockage to the gases flowing through the can leading to marked back pressure in the system.

The newer cans don't have this steel wool and the hoses are now routed differently so that the inlet is at the side of the can and not the top. This arrangement greatly minimises any issues with freezing temps.
