    Yes, that's what I got an original intercooler, but the hose kit I got I think is wrong but anyway , as soon as the problem is sorted I will do my best to get everything else sorted, I've got couple things to do, like fitting the good air filter housing and things like that ( my one is wrong and...

    ok, I tried to look at the turbo as at the beginning a few people (including you I think) did say that , then I got too focus on the head gasket because of the mechanic that I've seen that ASSURED me that's what it was... anyway the hose between the turbo and the inlet manifold ( i haven't got...

    sorry I meant push as like "press the pedal" yes I have enough to make a round around the neighbourhood but that's pretty much it, I actually didn't even try because I would have to go trough a steep hill and a bit scared to risk it

    Oh I see , I don't see why this would have a problem as the fuel is coming up to the injectors with no problem . Because it smokes A LOT ! I feel bad with people passing. I tired to give a little run earlier just going forward 100m and come back , it was hilarious

    Ok , I am not sure what the lift pump is so will look into that, and will try to check the timing tomorrow, hopefully I'll get a compression tester as well so I can test it.

    Guys , I am trying to sort out the air filter that has been ciliconed everywhere , and I see a lot of water in there , could that be my problem ? Could I try starting the car with a rag at the end just to see how it react ? Thanks

    Yes I drained from the bottom. I am trying to check the cam belt , I've got a good tutorial ( the same as the one I used for the head ) but I am already in front of a little problem . Where do I put the flywheel pin and where am I suppose to line up the TDC mark ? Thanks
