We turned the diaphram in the injector pump from 12 o'clock to about 2:30 (between 2 and 3 o'clock)  :wink:

2 screws, 2 torx, pull off cover, turn diaphram, put rubber bit back in place, put cover back on, put screws back in. Job done 8)

Hello Gords :lol:


That was the adjustments me and Simon were talking about in the Alps  :D but to make it work better the turbo needs tweaking and a larger intercooler to help feed lots of extra cold air in for that bigger bang to go with that extra fuel :(bloodshot):  :(bigwicked):

Yes, a bigger intercooler is on the list, but this simple mod has given enough to make it much more driveable on the motorway. That'll have to do for now :roll:

fibber you know you want one :wink:  :wink:  :wink:  :twisted:

Hi Gords,

Glad to hear it worked, you can always go a wee bit more if needed.  :D

And thankyou to Neil for his support while we were working on it, I'm sure it wouldn't have been the same without him!!  :roll:

We got back last night (Thursday) after spending two nights with Duncan Brown on Skye (it rained most of the time but at least it washed the Disco for me! :D).

I'll download my photos tonight and post them later, including the damage!
