The intercooler has been swapped back to the original and an initial run around the block looks promising, I'll run it like this for a few days and if all is good I'll buy a new bas intercooler.

I hope that the " promising " is still good after a few or so runs Ray

Still promising
you really don't notice gradual power loss until you get it back. It pulls like a train now  Ray

I'll keep the old intercooler in for a bit, but I keep looking at the bas hi flow ones and my trigger finger is itching  Ray

If you dont press that button soon, you will be losing a lot sleep, coz you know in the end that its the way to go and the best thing is, you need a new one

That sounds right
it's only the fact that I've already thrown around £1600 at it in the last two weeks on injectors, map sensor and fitting that's making me think I should wait a week or two just to be sure it's fixed. Ray

That makes a lot of sense Ray
But the only downside i can think of is that, if you have " fixed " the problem, then there is no excuse to get a new intercooler ??????? 1996 Golf Blue 300Tdi 110 Pick up.

Ahh well, that fix is only temporary as it's the standard size intercooler I've put back in as the allisport one had split, so I definitely need a performance one to replace that

With that reply then, i think that you will be able to sleep like a baby for a week or two knowing that your trigger finger will be activated

On the bottom of page 18 you sort out the right hand capping. You refer to something called stopper. What is that? mine need doing so remembered I'd seen it done in your thread.

Hi Greg, stopper is a very fine body filler, usually used for finishing any pinholes left in the filler surface. After treating the corrosion on my capping it only needed a very light skim of filler so I went with the stopper.

Thanks Ray
I was going to use p38. I'll just get some of that instead as it's only a going to have few pit marks. |
