    I believe. Never doubted. Fixing issues ASAP. Is there any specific PCV filter to use?
    Blocking plate for the EGT sensor is no biggie.
    Only other question I have is does all this need toe done at the same time? Ie, blocking plate and filter.

    I used Provent 200, a bit pricy (~$200) but does its job. I recently removed the intercooler and all piping and there is nothing to clean. I still regularly clean the MAF sensor with MAF sensor cleaner or contact cleaner.

    While on the subject, how can I clean the carbon deposite on the intake manifold and head without removing them? I removed the swirl contral valve body and bush off the carbon sludge using degreaser. But it is too involve in removing the intake manifold, not the mention the complexity of the cylinder head, so and cleaning in-situ would be appreciated.

    I also have a Provent 200, highly recommended.

    The Godfather, no it does not all need to be done at once but always do the guages first. ZD30's are very sensitive to airflow changes and blocking the EGR can affect turbo boost. If you find the turbo boosting excessively you may need to adjust the boost limiting grub screw until such time as you get to fit a Dawes valve.
    I never doubted you were a believer!

    GUIV, if there is an easy way to clean out the carbon deposits I would like to know what it is. I have done the same as you and cleaned as much as I can without removing the inlet manifold and head. I could probably clean more by spraying carby cleaner down the intake manifold but I don't want the carbon going into the engine so I have not done it.

    Tony, but even if you do not clean the sludge, there is no garantee that these sludge will not dislodge itself and fall into the engine and get burnt. I come across this product call Wynn's EGR3 from the Patrol4x4.com. I have not tried it yet, just wanted to hear if there is any other method.

    patrol4x4.com/forum/nissan-patrol-gu-gr-10/how-clean-sludge-intake-manifold-without-removing-67012/

    There are some mechanic equips with the "Carbon Clean" Do you think it will do the job??

    All problems aside, they are a hell of a 4WD. Mine gets in and out of some pretty severe places.

    OK, that's a fair few Ks, but not unusual, If it was mine, I'd be doing the mods and getting the max life out of it.
    Cheers.
