About 8ish,

Tried it this morning with choke of and a wound it on to 3k, it seemed to clear what was already in the pipe then no more. Switch choke back on an smoke-a-rama again.

Havn't drained it down yet but from what everyone's said I'm not too worried now. Plus its been 3week since I started this thred and she hasnt blown up yet so I guess its nothing serious.
