IT ALL STARTED when I went to do the Gearbox piece on John Simister for Octane 246. Actually, it all started when I collected my car in November 2022, when booting it at speed revealed a hesitancy that I presumed to be fuel-supply related. I ignored it, of course (for good reason, as will become clear), but it gradually worsened over the months until the point where, unless I was pottering around at 30mph locally (which I largely was, to be fair), I needed to do something about it.
