Gaskit ???? Mine does have a simular problem: After a few 100 meters the problem is over, until the next engine stop (for maore then say 10 minutes). This problem does not always occure. Check: After turning of the ignition, take the presure from the water system (open the expansion box for a few moments: watch out: hot water can come out !) Groetjes Martin.
