i dunno what goo thing is is it sumfin to remove glue?

i do have metho but wont that cut the paint?

shit !!!!! hairdryer...no hairdryer i just chucked it in the bin... 2 weeks go

hot water?? more hot water and metho?

I wouldn't use metho mate, you can damage the paint over time doing that, happened to me after some annoying little s**t spray painted the back of my car with obscenities :D

Maybe just apply heat as suggested and perhaps that big kevs goo remover os something similar?

Eucalyptus oil

You can get it at the chemist and it won't affect the paint. Brilliant for removing just about anything sticky. Saturate some cotton wool and keep wiping. Turn the cotton wool every time it gets gummed up and use a new cotton ball if necessary.

By the time your finished you should have cleared your sinuses as well, hey presto, no more cold :D

cheers guys

btw the glue has hardened.. are u sure it will soften up and come out?

it is no longer sticky everything is like rock hard sh*t....

lol

bit turps never goes astray

Yeh man I used turps on mine and wrecked the duco, my mistake was I was at work and someone had sprayed C**T in huge bright orange letters on the boot of my car, so like an idiot I wiped it off using too much turps and didn't really wash it off all that well... So I had to respray the whole boot :D MAKE SURE you wash it off well if you use turps!!!

mineral spirits will remove any glue residue/oil residue on paint.

Paint has been treated to withstand mineral spirits so there is no risk in using it.

mineral will remove oils off paint, including wax (if you applied any), so best to re-apply wax in the area which was covered in spirits.

Mineral spirits are a low cost version of body shop prep chemicals like Prepsol or Acrysol. They remove wax and other chemicals from the paint surface.

All are safe for cured automotive paint finishes.

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
