My second T4, operation de-chav

[daleydub]

Just had a thought, crank seal probably needed whilst I'm in there.

Reg how tight do i do the injector up when fitting new nozzles and how tight when fitting the injectors back in the head thanks reg

I said they were good, I think that's the same or similar setup I had on my Golf - From the looks of it I was running a heavier flywheel (to suit a diesel) but still a fair few kilos lighter than stock)

One problem - that flywheel (aside from possibly being too light) will not bolt up to the eight bolt crank on a T4

What do the AEL audi engines use, that's a route I've not looked down yet.

The drive to work was sedate this morning, no more than 1800 rpm and about 20% throttle max. yawn.

I've had during the course of the day more correspondence with Frank, very helpful ...
So despite the positive start this AM their kit is a 6 hole and it don't fit , I was very clear this morning!

Cheers. My first question would have been what have you got that fits an eight hole crank....

Assuming ABL type injectors - not TDI injectors with clamp?

52ft/lbs fitting into head, always push towards engine - not pull away as it's possible to crank them out the front of the head - but normally when trying to remove them when they are stuck in.

Fitting the nozzles, hand tighten the nozzle until it seats and then 45 degrees more.

Injector lines are not murder tight either - just nipped up.

Read some good things about TTV Racing producing some one off flywheels or adaptions for the Volvo M56 gearbox etc..
So I've been in contact with them today for producing a bespoke AJT flywheel.

I'm not confident the Valeo 228mm SMF flywheel in the KIT4P is going to hold (long term) the sort of torque our engines can produce.

May be Dan could cast some wise words of guidance from his own experiences and discussions with "the shadow man".

This photo actually makes it look better than it really is, it's bloody awful. At least the 45 profile tyres didn't turn out to be as bad a ride as I thought they might

[spedwing]

I think it's pretty cool dude 🤙

I'm not feeling it, sorry.

[Greeny gtc]

I like that!!
But I love the wheel style on anything and i like bright colours contrasted by black/dark/or mat colours.
