The car started to need a few churns to start, it's petrol with an LPG conversion.
I noticed staining on the road, it was petrol.
Turns out that the not yet year old fuel filter had a pinhole leak.
Ironic given I had changed what I believe to be the 15 year old original filter last year as preventative maintenance.
New filter fitted and all good, glad I had taken the other car on a 300 mile journey yesterday, as we could have been stuck on the A9 at night.
Will look at the old filter tomorrow in daylight to see if it's a manufacturing defect or mechanical damage, as I do have to use farm tracks.
Might look at making a skid plate protector as it sits quite exposed.
