    200TDI versus 2.25d oil pressures and switches

    sorry for the ignorance, but why would you fit a series filter housing to a TDI? mines fine with the TDI filter housing?

    here`s one i was told.about starting and charging

    it can more or less recoup the charge it used when starting straight away i.e. less than a mile, if its a good starter that is.

    here`s one i was told.about starting and charging

    sounds about right to be honest it obviously depends on the size of both the alternator and the battery, but a "normal" car then yes thats about right

    200TDI versus 2.25d oil pressures and switches

    now then geezers, does anyone know if the two switches are in the same ball park in terms of the pressure that switches the light on? as ive got an adaptorp for the oil pressure guage which fits into the switch hole, but a TDI switch doesent fit in it and the 2.25d switch does, obviously ill...

    1982, swb brakes

    i know that its illgal to sell now, but if you can get hold of some asbestos shoes, they are much more efficient and more hardwearing, dont squeal as much either, just make sure to wear a mask when dealing with them, and use brake cleaner to turn the dust into liquid.

    Twin turbo

    theres not much point in having a much larger compressor housing than standard, as the engines can only take 18psi boost max, but what you want is a constant 18psi hence a second smaller turbo, plus the larger compressor would need more power to spool it up so you get more lag. the thng which...
