Broke down!
A strange one, would run fine along the motorway for 20-30 miles then conk out when I slowed coming off the slip, did this ½ dozen times over a few days, Thought it was a fuelling issue, tried the lift pump etc, but after a vit of trial, error and research, turned out to be the 90⁰ boost hose coming off the turbo delaminating and ballooning internally on the overrun and suffocating the engine!

All sorted now with some new hoses:)

Thats not a standard heater set up? What have you done? And what you used?
Thanks
 
Was a bit bored, waiting on my clutch parts, so stripped down my spare box to see what state it was in?
Ordered some new bearings,seals and baulk rings for it. Other than cleaning all the guff off the casings, it's quite an enjoyable job.

Now I'm bored waiting on clutch parts and gearbox parts!:D.
