Ha ha,
Had the best day,
New head, new injectors, all new lower and upper thermostat housing, machined exhaust manifold, new air induction from turbo to inlet manifold, all new hoses for the cooling system and got to drive the truck again after nearly a fortnight.
And F Me if it don't fly. Boosting past 15psi now(best reading before was 11) and based on it's trial run today will go better than a tun.
I am one happy camper.

Gunna have a 'man' look at why my brake warning light came on yesterday. If it looks too hard, it's off to the mechanics on Monday - on the back of a trailer, towed by a RAC T T T, you know.
Ouch! That really hurt to say that.

Time is never wasted when your wasted all the time

Yeah im with Nissan gq4.2. check your brake fluid level.
I had to charge the battery in the old vn commadore a couple of days ago cause it's been a while since it ran . I noticed the brake fluid level had dropped somewhat from when i last topped it up at it's last and only brake pad change---about 20 years ago.
And me today . I fitted my new dashmat !!! Some days are diamonds , some days you do what you can !?!?!

Not yet Ben, but will put some up soon, I am waiting to get a pipe bent that runs from the turbo to the new fitting on the inlet manifold, what is there now is doing the job but looks like crap.
Lots of hose clamps and small pieces of silicone pipe to get the angles right.
Truck is going like a dream now, can't get over how much quicker it is now all the exhaust gasses are going to the turbo.
