The OP said on stand but was that with a door open or not? At this point I suspect many of us would be looking bemusedly at a shut down engine that has no physical signs of anything untoward going on and and thinking do I really want to carry on down this road?
Yep absolutely right, had too many glasses of wine last night. So I do apologise for the stupid comment.
As far as I can remember the new Engine Fire on the Ground the Memory item is only one bottle to be fired as a memory item.
