    Well been using the car a bit now and it's still running beautifully with the blocker in. Will leave it and see how it goes as is for a while. If anything perhaps a tiny loss of boost btwn 80 and 110 but not even sure about that. Will report any changes!
    What happened to yours 3doggies???

    Cheers
    Steve

    I was losing water and getting hot just out of the blue, so I figured I throw some Rislone head repair
    in it to see how that goes. Now I dont use any water, still have great power, but just not confident
    in the motor even though the bottle said it now fixed permanently. I did a 20min run to BA's
    last week. Might get on the western ring road tomorrow and go into the city via the freeway
    Just not confident in it at all. No money to repair so had to patch it GRrrrrrrr but Im on the road

    That is pain TD.
    I know what you mean about the trust thing.
    I had similar symptoms with my Paj.
    If we cruised constantly at about 100-110k, I would have to stop after 70miles she'd be boiling over. I'd let her cool down, top her up and off we'd go again, up into the mountains and back home again with 1000miles done, no problems.
    It's like she just needed a burp!

    Stevo, saw the vid a while back!
    If it's the same one, I liked the idea of bolting the filter manifold back on upside down temporarily to undo the filter.
    Top tip mate!

    Noted 3dogs...took my troll for a highway run today. Ran great but noticed the water temp was up to 95 in stead of the usual 80 centigrade. Not noticeable on the car temp gauge but noted in my temp gauge mounted in the radiator cap. Wondering if this due to the inert gases not being there to cool combustion temps or perhaps a lack of boost as the ecu may be backing off the boost to raise temps as someone suggested on this thread - which is happening. Any thoughts?

    Me thinks it's either the Dawes path or unblocking the egr plate!

    Daveyboy, got the inverted fuel filter idea from this forum. Agree it's a top tip...

    Cheers

    With a 'troll reliability seems to be everything, I got rid of the GU2 because it let us down twice.
    The first time was the overflow spigot breaking off on the radiator, temporary fix, drive two and a half hours home on 38 degree day with no aircon dog, cat & kid in the car, new radiator.
    Second time alternator died, charge battery, drive two and a half hours home on 38 degree day with no aircon dog, cat & kid in the car, new alternator.
    New 'troll, problem solved.
    Happy wife, happy life.
