Should give the whole engine bay a damn good clean before you start taking things apart. Cause you can't put a hos enear it once it's open'd up.
Sure it's just a minor thing from degredation of the gasket.

yea that's because it's spoon!!! you can get something of same quality as uk made centre sections for way less then that for a jap car, just cause it's jap doesnt mean he has to go for spoon!!
