- First, the "5 star 100 octane" is not the numbers you see on pumps today (or for quite a while back). 100 octane is the RON. The numbers on the pumps are (RON+MON)/2. RON = Research Octane Number, M

- TR8's are "cows"? I'm guessing that you mean slow (Aussie slang doesn't always cross over perfectly, just as I'm sure US and UK slang don't). TR8's are _not_ slow. They're not head-snapping, but they

- That normally shouldn't be needed if all the rubber/etc is in good shape - water shouldn't be getting in. The problems described sound like one of: too-thick carb oil; carbs that need a rebuild; badl
