Cheers, anything gotta be better than the average $150 and 2 month wait with Microsoft.

ye.

if its a perma fix he can do, he'll tell ya. If not, he will just give it back no charge :)

He's an old SAU'er from '02-'04 or there abouts.

my ps3 had the flashing light of death.

Put it in the oven for 5 minutes, let it cool down and it worked :D

Some chump at the markets wanted $200 and wouldnt guarantee it would work

(ps3 gets the red flashing light of death because the cpu overheats and detaches from the motherboard. Putting it into the oven remelts the solder and bridges the connection)

Well have a look and advise

Will make decision tomorrow

I approve this skin.

Never had a problem with my PS3. You mad xbox?

Bike update, bought a sick helmet today, gloves too. Just finished re-fitting the stock pipe and aids fender (should be illegal due to hideousness), went ghetto on the fender but should pass the roady tomorrow, then it's straight off

Xbox has the same problem, CPU and GPU heatsinks don't stay clamped down enough and vibrations + heat make the components seperate from the motherboard over time. You can also fix an Xbox by putting it in the oven, but it doesn't always work and you can easily damage the other components on the MB. It fixed my mate's Xbox, though afterwards, his Xbox would occasionally freeze with intense graphic gameplay. Ash's mate reckons $85 but not guaranteed to fix...they use a rework station though which is much safer than ye olde oven lol.

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
