using a 3 m wheel on its flat, it did not take long Cubitron 11, great on alu too as long as you use wax or wd40 every now and then
your normal everyday hard wheel, will take forever
AS I said before, the balence weights on the rim inner need to be romoved
I’m looking forward to Shane’s pipe work delete video for 2.7s who can delete the EGRs and failure prone piping. On a 3.0 if you just bypassed the coolers I wonder what would happen? How much do they cool the exhaust gas anyway? Might be enough to diagnose as only other source of contamination is oil cooler (or head gasket).Quote:

Raceworks CTS-131 temp sensor. I'll be replacing the factory temp sensor as I'll no longer have the plastic tee that the original goes into. Will require new plug on the wiring harness (included with the sensor). This will be installed into the 90 degree elbow.
Length of 19mm/3/4" heater hose.
3/4" hose joiner - optional depending on where you plumb the hose to.
Once its all said and done I'm hoping the engine isn't cooked[bighmmm] If not then I'll be replacing every remaining plastic part in the cooling system that I haven't yet touched.
I think my rebuilt hitachi compressor has finally died. I've replaced every part on it but now it's leaking from the orange pipe on the metal cap.
Is that fitting also on a 3.0 litre?Quote:

Well worth changing out in the interests of preventative m/ance I reckon.
Let us know how you get on. I have one to swap mine out but every time I look at it I go “it can wait until next service.Quote:
