Re: [doc] re valley of death??

Replace the inlet manifold o rings. Not expensive.
 
The CO adjust hold should be plugged.
This should be plugged when taking a CO reading and should only be only when you alter the mixture this way.
 
Obviously, check everything else first like fuel pressures, ignition timing etc BEFORE attempting to adjust this.

Hi all


firstly martin-i'll sort the fuel pressure kit when i put things back 
together.

i've taken the plung and now in the valley of death!!

so far half a sainsburys bag of leaves and pine needles- yes really 
these are everywhere.

surprisingly no leak in there but looks somewhere under the pump.

no any tips on cleaning in there and everywhere generally-every thing 
is dirty/grubby.

would you use meths? panel wipe? petrol? paint brush cleaner? acetone? 
parafin? paint thinners? medical alchohol? (could think of any others?)

to clean in the valley, the air intake, the air pipes, thermostat 
housing.
i really want it looking reasonable.

is it worth soaking any nuts/bolts in the halfords rust remover then 
paint with a zinc type spray?

by the way, would you get a vacuum leak from the co adjust hole if the 
plug is missing?
the air intake o rings are completely flat-is this normal?
thanks for any help


regards

Steve
