As some of you know, I overfilled my VR with oil at Japfest.
She hasnt been running right since... even after i drained the excess out.
After limited success cleaning out the top turbo pipes I decided I really needed to clean the whole intake and exhaust for the turbos (im sure there isnt supposed to be that much oil in there.../pan )
To remove the intercooler you need to drop the front bumper and as I had a new front wing to go on I thought I would do that at the same time.
Started at 09:45am and finished at 18:00 After washing her when id got her all back together. The pics tell there own story but the last one should have a caption of *did all these bits really come off the front of my car...*
Car is now running better but only intermittantly....I think i really mucked up the sensors by overfilling it. And now on the odd occasion i do get full power i am just shocked at how fast a VR4 is :pimp2:
