Tim HJ61
I had an HJ61 12HT and they have a composite exhaust made up of sections sealed with a ring, like a piston ring.
They can leak carbon monoxide into the engine area. Shouldn't do it but can.
Reports from people on this
forum and others have stated they have had broken and loose manifold bold or blown gaskets, even on new vehicles. So, some carbon monoxide although it shouldn't be there, can be there.
If Gini also had such a fault occurring then the OLD CO will be present in what flow from the engine bay.
Until proven there is NONE present, assume the possibility, it is called risk assessment.
No there is no CO but I feel sleepy, don't you?
If the vehicle was perfect they wouldn't have any problem.
Possibly a different viewpoint to yours but we all see things differently.
A
forum is a method of alerting to the possibles in case they are overlooked or dismissed as not possible.
Therefore, as stated, "any carbon monoxide leakage" is the alert one should be aware of.
Cheers
