Yep it's all happy now.

Never did figure where the stud/nut came from.

I can only imagine that it got in there at the breaker when they took the engine out. If you think about it the intake snout points down at a significant angle and then there's that EGR mess in there.

Seems to me the engine would have to have been turned at a strange angle for the gizmo to fall in.

I've plenty of those stud nut guys but they are all currently installed on V8 intake manifolds holding the fuel rail and coil pack on. No others loose though.

Hi All

I have experienced a internal collapse of the discharge hose from the turbo to the intercooler, You have no power on take off at all and it will only slightly inprove as the boost builds, although it presented no smoke at all.
