A single pound?? How long ago was this? Did you get your change in groats, ha'pennies, shillings and pieces of eight??   

 

In also used to get  4 gallons of petrol for £1       It was that price for a long time.😃

I was only earning about £10 a week then.

I was the one selling them 😂🤦‍♂️ We used to sell Champion plugs in those days, and Lodge, who remembers Lodge plugs then, they were pink in colour 

Yes, I remember the champion ones, but not the pink ones.

the tank builds pressure or vacuum any vapours are fed back to the engine, yes its completely normal

That hiss freaked me out the first time I refuelled when I went back to petrol after driving diesels for so long

There were all sorts of plugs around in those day. People didn't need to worry

about which make they used.

If possible I’d love to see another 1.0 auto at warm idle to compare. 
I’ve also checked to see how much movement there is when changing from P to D (brakes on).  The engine does move, perhaps a cm or two at most
