Now I've got one and had it for a while I'm hereing weak mixture leads to valve issues after a prolonged use. Anyone had experience of this or heard similar. Like many on the board jumped on the bandwagon after a post that told us all how great it is in saving fuel and cutting emmissions. It does its great but at the expense of the engine??

All the writeups (on their site at least) say that it allows air in, usually this would weaken the mixture... but they say that the fact it is only a tiny amount, combined with the fact the fuel gets atomised a lot better, hence mixing a lot better with the air, effectively making it richer again, this won't be an issue.

Lots of commas, i know, but, it, makes, sense?
