Landys off the road since passing her MOT ( oh the irony )
Landy has been feeling sluggish and found a split hose ( both ends ) from the waste gate actuator hose some new hose on order so will see what that is like. Cut it down short for the time being but new hose on order.
Took the opportunity to finally use the new injector nozzles i have and did a meticulous job of refurbishing them as best as i could - After a run out i found 3rd injector from the front wasn't sealed, so googled the torque spec, calibrated the torque wrench and nipped them all up - sheering the stud for the 3rd injector in the process.
The good and the great suggest that welding a nut on is the way to go so that can be a job for this evening.
Heard on some of the forums that it might be a good idea ( improved performance? ) to move waste gate hose to the air inlet side - heard there might be some kind of blanking plug or some such somewhere which gives a good spot to go into? Has anyone got a picture of such a set up?
