Memo to myself 2. After adding fuel, don't forget to turn off fuel when parked.

Regine is an old lady. A good looking, but old, lady. And old ladies sometimes have issues. Incontinence issues. Enough said.

This morning my missus complained about gasoline odour coming from the basement, where also the garage is situated.

Being the Sherlock Holmes that I am (dah), I immediately suspected that the smell came from the garage, and that Regine was causing it. And my suspicions were spot on:


 There she was, fuel soaking the entire floor beneath the engine.

Turns out I forgot to switch the fuel lever to "closed" yesterday, and this has caused the carb to overflow.

So: Nothing too serious. But I am not looking forward to trying to start Regine tomorrow...
