Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Argh - petrol spill in the boot!

    So, I filled a petrol canister two days ago, put it in the boot of my car and drove home. The same canister I've used for over a year now and it's a proper approved canister. I didn't take the canister out straight away and when I did take it out an hour later, I immediately noticed a smell of petrol in the boot and the canister had lost about half a litre of petrol :(:(

    So, I mopped up as best I could using white vinegar and baking soda. Then carpet shampoo, then fabreeze. I took out the boot carpet and noticed that the petrol had leaked underneath.

    I now still have the petrol smell, even without the boot carpet in the car AND the smell is in the cabin.

    Any ideas on anything I can do to remove the smell (other than lighting a match and throwing it into the boot!!) ? Will it go away eventually? Is there anything I can do to speed it up?
