Changed the injector seals and seats, vac hoses as well as the inlet manifold gaskets and will be taking for emissions test once i get back. Although narrow band AFR gauges still sits very rich and does not move.

Not had it tested yet, seems to run fine but the turbo oil seals are gone so don't want to push my luck on that front so it'll not going anywhere for a while.

However my mate has just bought a nice new Brian James trailer so i got no excuses really.:whistle:

Alright. It turned out that my map sensor securing bolts weren't torqued up enough causing a small leak:censored:

I've just realised that it was you i passed the other day while i was out in the Shogun near Culter;)

Only ever happened to me once in 9 mot's ;-) Chances are it'll be a simple fix.

Not really, it got a spin on wed afternoon after i gave it a mini service but it's just for nice days and playing on track once it's eventually finished.
