Where were you, half way up an Alp ;)

Heres a graph I recorded using Palmer PCMSCAN software & a Mobydick OBDII scanner, unfortunately the MAP pressure is in "Hg (inches of mercury), but Atmospheric pressure is normally about 29 - 30 "Hg. with the throttle open 100% boost pressure was about 65 "Hg or about 30 psia which equates to...

Yeah, if your reading goes below 14.7 psia its actually pulling a vacuum, think I might have some graphs somewhere, if I can find them I will post them ;)

Might be measuring in psig, if it is add 14.7 psi to convert to psia

Mine peaks at 215 Kpa absolute when accelerating hard, thats 2.15 bar absolute, about 30 psia, because its absolute pressure you are only getting about 15 - 16 psi of boost press.

This is my solution, a simple one shelf system with a pullout stove, drawer runners are B&Q, still have access to the cubby box to feed the fish that live there :D. I have the hole covered with a thin piece of chequer plate now, keep the Bushpig & KER rope & some camping stuff in the space above...

Could do with a coat of black paint Dunc ;)

Arent you just a bit curious as to where the oil is disapearing to ?, to lose that much oil in so short a time your engine should be kicking out more smoke than a Chinese power station !! ;)

Doesn't cost anything to join ours because its Web based but if you join one with a Chairman, treasurer, Secretary, committee etc that has "proper" meetings then it probably will, our meetings are held around a Coleman stove out on the lanes somewhere (usually in the rain), we are lucky because...

I would look for a 4x4 club in your area & do your first laning with them, you would be welcome to join us but we go to the Lakes, Dales or N. Yorks moors mostly, occasionally the Peaks or Wales, a bit far North for you I think

You won't get stuck in a Freelander...the traction control wont let you :D

Just as a matter of interest what's stopping you going off road in it ? ;)

Dont have an "after" pic but use your imaginations ;)

Yeah mate, I think you are right, you will need some good tyres as well with room for a bit more air

Parkamoor next Dunc :eek:

The campsite, on the banks of Lake Coniston..

Was a bit wet but we took it very steady through the flooded bits so as not to create a bow wave & erode the edges of the track..

Yes the axle twister is a fantastic bit of lane, was a great weekend altogether Dunc

Think its more likely your Fuel Burning Heater, its located more or less under the battery & the fan runs for a few minutes after it switches off but once your water heats up it should go off, you might hear it after a short run though where the water doesn't have a chance to get hot.

The vacuum canister should be in the line going to the turbo vane solenoid, have a look at the back of the canister, you might find the connection is broken off, it is fairly fragile. Mine broke off & I pretty much did what was done in your pic until I got a new accumulator, didn't notice any...
