    Fuel Tank reconditioning

    Kreem, follow the instructions exactly and it works well. Been using this stuff for years now without an issue.

    They're dirt cheap new, probably buy a box of 10 for $10. :)

    Can the power steering pumps front seal be replaced without removing the shaft?

    Never done it myself but if the Bore diameter is seal sized without a lip I can't see why not using a seal tool.

    Oil system upgraded to full flow...start engine...uppgrade again, ideas?

    Ahhh with you now! I'd prefer to trim 15>20mm from the end of the hose just to be sure.

    Oil system upgraded to full flow...start engine...uppgrade again, ideas?

    Can you clarify what you mean by "reuse" them? (pics might help) If they're screw together AN Braided style no probs, Pushlocks as long as you're careful cutting the hose again not an issue.

    Never used an E-Boost but I thought you dialled up a number on the readout?

    It's all a bit of a juggling act due to how the actuators are configured, have a read through that PDF a couple of times, some of the settings are counterintuitive (at least they seemed that way to me) More preload usually results in more creep up top, I found with internal gate turbo's I...

    0 is bad as it delays boost/spool, the WG will start to open from .5 psi (depending on preload) With the 3540r it was always a battle to get it preloaded enough to stop this happening and not too much as that caused creep up top due to the small internal gate it had. Try googling PID...

    Noise suppressor, I tend to leave them in place.

    Be really cool if you could overlay them ;) Gumby method of flicking between the 2 shows an interesting trend that No controller is always climbing with controller is decreasing Vs RPM, that would make me believe the Controller is overshooting then over correcting trying to catch it. I'd...

    Dang my head has a crack guess I should throw it away ..........naaaaaaaaaaa

    Is it just me or are all of you blind? :nono: Prediction: It'll crack either side of the weld the 1st heat cycle.... I only say this as to repair that properly would mean preheating the head to 500c before welding and milling to the full depth of the crack this in turn would make the head...

    Be better without it if you have a piece of hose handy.

    Can't stand Mango.... ;) (the fruit) I'll reserve judgement on you though seeing you're a Stephen King fan! (one of my old cars was nicknamed Christine as it had a LOT of electrical gremlins and would do some weirdass shit) Welcome to SM!

    Looks like it's trying to hold, Can you do a run without the controller connected and log it as a baseline? (just a hose direct from the Turbo to the WG)
