    Engine support missing?

    There are actually 3 supports on the exhaust side, one on the bottom of the manifold, a lower one on the turbo (looks like the one for the intake) and an upper one that bolts to the head.

    Engine support missing?

    Turbo side needs the braces unless you like pulling the studs out of the head and like retorquing all the fasteners on that side of the engine. Oh, and BULLSHIT to the brace not being needed on the power steering pump. If it's loose or missing the belt will flip over or be flung (don't argue...

    Boiling coolant but temp gauges check out normal

    Boiling coolant but temp gauges check out normal

    fog light mod anyone?

    They're called blinders and they're to stop direct view of the bulb. The reflector is what actually shapes the beam and puts it where it's supposed to go. If they're dim, replace the bulbs and clean the wiring (or rewire with relays). Also, the inside chroming on the reflector may be coming...
