[Healeys] Special Washers - Float Chamber top fitting

[Alan Seigrist]

Kees -

I may speak American, but I live in Hong Kong.  Gas prices are about the
same here.  Driving my Jag Mk IX costs me about $110 per fillup, which is
good for about 150 miles in traffic... so about 75 cents per mile.    At
least my A90 seems to go about twice as far, so it's fairly reasonable to
drive.
