So around midday I dosed myself up with tablets and managed to do a little bit
Getting that air intake pipe was a complete and utter @**#/-/*#;#;@/#*# having to push one end and pulling from the other , christ that was difficult
In the picture with the 2 x nuts and 1 x bolt, the far left bolt has stripped , has a welded nut on the back , think I may have to drill out the thread and see if I can get a short bolt and nyloc in there , holds an A/C pipe
Got the short turbo intercooler hose on, but looking at the pictures I think I need to undo the bottom clamp , move it slightly away from the turbo shield and push the clamp down a little bit , currently there all tight , didn’t go to mad as was worried of cracking the turbo outlet pipes
Then need to simply fit the scavenger pipe which shouldn’t be to bad to refit
Does anyone know where the front diff breather pipe attaches to the diff please as noticed it’s come off
So all in all I feel a very productive few hours , will have to leave it I think till the weekend as I’m absolutely crucified and my own fault but in agony
Will feel a lot happier once I’ve got the upper and lower cowl back on , hoses, then working on top of the engine
Few piccies
