No. You are still confined to the limits of the housing in which the vanes operate in. Just like anything they are a compromise.Quote:

I think it's been 8 months since I could drive this car worry free.
One of the injectors is leaking which was the troubled one from the old engine and I thought it was just the seating of it but looks like the injector itself has issues.
Booked in next Monday to get sorted so no driving until then :(
Yeah I can't blame you mate.
Very long time to be without your pride and joy!
And the wait won't even be worth it.......
Nearly there mate.
Well mate. The GQU has certainly come along way....

Take 3!
Officially I am now back on the road trouble free!
Injector fixed and we did a test using Diesel Tec gauge and my pyro is exactly 50 degrees out reading lower so that explains it. This is a pretty new vdo gauge too.
I'm officially back folks :)
Good on ya mate.
No more blowing holes in blocks OK..
OK now for some advice from the silly old man.Quote:

Was it out 50 degrees across the entire operating range or at a held temperature? Also you didnt happen the shorten any of the wiring that comes pre wired to the thermo couple?Quote:

In exactly the same spot in the exhaust?Quote:

I'm looking forward to some trips next year folks. Feels like a dream to have a car again!
I've been chatting to a lot people lately how we are all just too busy to get out regularly.
2017, we should aim for quick no fuss weekends and find local camp spots easy for most to get to without a heap of bashing cars and more camping and enjoying getting away from life to be honest folks.
Even quick well organised Saturday morning meet ups, one nighters every month or two.
Kind of pointless doing so much to our Patrols and not getting out enough!!
Mine's covered in dust. Tempted to market it again! Could do with the cashola and downsize into a GQ!Quote:

Mine is all up and running sweet as at the moment too so I'm keen for a few getaways next year for sure!
Wtf are you talking about?Quote:
