Engine was not running as well as it should have been and starting from cold was a tad rough. EGR valve was blamed as the culprit along side tired glow plugs. EGR was full of sh*t. Was removed, cleaned up refitted and still not behaving.
Alan decided to sack it off and replace it with a straight through pipe. Cheap at £70! not.
Not pictured due to a lot of the work being done in the dark, glow plugs were changed, the inlet manifold was also removed and cleaned up and the motor was treated to an oil and filter change. To do all this the front had to be taken to bits, bumper, slam panel and rads dropped. Sounds easier than it was.
