I read the first sentence and was thinking "cool! something to do!"

then I read the second sentence and thought "oh... yeah... that'd probably help"

so I'm no good to you, sorry!

It's a two man job so if I can't find anyone usefull you might have to do :(

yeah i've already done it with one of them.

They are good for flushing, and do an OK job at bleeding, but I have found (particularly when the lines have been empty, like mine were) that you need to do a quick manual bleed afterwards to get a good pedal feel. Normally my mate who is a mechanic does it and I just pump the pedal, but he has flown off to NZ for two weeks :(

Yea... I doubt I'll wash my car there again. The soap will take away the wax/polish. I'm sticking with the gentler shampoo I've got now. =D

Colin: You should try the Mother's reflective coating. Damn good in terms of look and feel/touch!

side note..

Did anyone know the new auto text they put in

    • If you take the top half of the intake off you can unbolt the flap off the shaft and leave the shaft in there blocking the hole. Then you can remove the little vacuum canister off from under the manifold and get a spare vacuum line to run to the ECU. I can take some photos of it later. Probably best to get the vacuum source to the ECU sorted first though. Mine all worked mint with the base map from the GTT an I've pretty much let the closed loop sort the fueling and took 1 degree out of the whole timing map.
    • This IS something you also have to configure in Haltech (or at least I did in the past when going from onboard-to-ECU map sensor and an external MAP sensor in haltech land).
    • I'm hoping it's something as simple as the ECU is looking for an external MAP sensor, but he is trying to use the onboard MAP sensor.
    • You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?
    • Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
