I had the same worry. it is expensive to send insured for £480 too and then it has to get back too!
I sent mine twice to Nick and once to Fotis so its been on 4 planes and probably some trains and lorries and its all good.

I refused to post my one and only PGM so I purchased a second broken one off here and sent that instead. That way if it went missing I only lost a spare not my only one!
Rumor ha it that Leisure Trail have a drawer full of broken ones but I never phoned to ask them. maybe they would sell you one to get fixed?

You Emailed leisuretrail, not the best way to contact anybody when you are asking for a favour, the old telephone still works wonders and will do for many years.

random e-mails never get my attention when people are asking for something, and I sell expensive £100k a time engines.

Phone calls however always work, I then know who is calling, they are over the age of 10 years old, are in UK, have the money, know what they are talking about.

Until I removed my email address from my website, I would get 30-40 timewasters emailing me every day.

So call the workshop and ask them nicely (unless they really have thrown them all out)

it cost me £12.50 to send mine to athens but you cant insure it for more than £250 going to greece with the post office .its been gone two weeks now but i have borrowed a duff one so have moved my valve to fully open and been out a few times the main difference is there is no bottom end pick up so you have to slip the clutch a bit .
