LPG Day 2
27. Mar 2010 at 00:35

Not uploaded pictures yet, tad nackered. Its all back together, and once restarted, uh-oh, air leak. Bit of scratching heads, and early worries it was inlet manifold gasket, i looked at LD and said, "you did connect the EGR on the manifold?" ....... D'oh!

Thats back on loosely, so needs nipping up, but about 95% done, tomorrow couple of very small tidying up jobs, starting at 9, expecting to tank up with gas at around 10am, and do the mapping Cheesy

Do you break V6's as often as TheBoy? Then you need tunnie's towing services, recovery costs are just the humiliation of being towed by 2/3's of an engine

Yes... I confess Embarrassed

Stupid 4 pots Tongue

Anyway... It's all TB's fault... He was talking to me Roll Eyes

As Tunnie says, it's finger tight and the car now purrs... Just got to let him get his gadget hands in there in daylight and tighten it up. I've got 4 wiring connections to make in the morning, a little tidying in a couple of places I'm not 100% happy with and to finish off connecting one of the vent pipes (which Tunnie was meant to do today Roll Eyes

) and we'll be off to fill up/leak test. Thumbs Up!

Actually... More like 98% really Wink

I'll collect the petrol map on the way there and LPG map on the way back. Thumbs Up!

Then pack up my tools, load up the car and I should be home for a late lunch Thumbs Up!

Had a shower and ready for bed... Quick cuppa and I'll be sleeping like a baby
