Hey Patrollers, i am in the process of attempting to complete NADS on my GU 3 and dont want to do the work myself, i would have thought this stuff would be easy for a specialist diesel workshop but apparently not.
Could somebody please tell me where the nut/ sensor get welded on the exhaust system, for the EGT gauge to plug into?
I am getting really frustrated as i now have the following parts sitting on a shelf waiting to be fitted, Boost and EGT gauge's, Dawes kit, Needle valve kit.
I booked it in to have the gauges fitted and got told they couldn't fit the EGT because the nut/ sensor it hooks up to isnt on my exhaust system, and i needed to get this welded on "its easy just take it to an exhaust shop and they can do it no probs" OK so i book it in to get this done and this bloke says "where did they say to weld it above or below the cat?" to his credit he just wanted to get it right first time.
So here's the piss me off, i cant fit the EGR block until i have Dawes and needle, i cant fit the Dawes and needle until i have the boost gauge to allow for adjustment of boost pressure, as i have got a pillar pod i don't see the point in having one gauge fitted at a time as i am not doing any of this work myself and dont want to book in twice for gauges to be fitted, and i cant fit the gauges fitted until i have this nut/ sensor thing fitted. AAAAARRRRRRGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The positive is that i showed the bloke at the exhaust place the layout of the Dawes and needle set up and he is keen to do the work which is a lot more than i can say for the so called diesel specialist i was having work on my truck, he is also prepared to remove a certain flow restricting device from the system (naughty but performance enhancing) so please can somebody tell me exactly where this nut/ sensor needs to be welded so i can get this done.
Thanks in advance patrollers.
