No more smoke !
I cleaned the PCV filter and EGR valve yesterday and did the MK2 chop on the intake
PCV filter is comical looks very much like a ball of string inside a foam sleeve to me............ Later....................... in fact it is a ball of string! PCV was like, really yuk and EGR a bit sooty probably 3mm all round car has only done 45,000 miles I can now run the Synergy on 10 with Maf switched on as well no more visible smoke in the rear mirror, previously following traffic would have been gassed I might disconnect the EGR vacuum but not 100% where the benefit is in doing that |

Dave has the egr bypass pipes in hand, so one of these would be better than disconnecting the egr vacuum supply. Ron

Off topic Ron have you done seperate Synergies for the PSA 90/110 bhp 2.0 HDI and the newer 92/110 bhp 1.6 variant? I am missing the Picasso I had, it was far more practical as a family car due to proper rear leg room so thinking about getting another. |

He'll do a straight swap - any old Picasso for the ZT260!

What I would like is a V8 ZTT, & a 75 CDT tourer both with all the kit I already have in my current 75 and ZTT, and another Picasso or even a diesel Espace to get all the family, dog and luggage in.
Biggest problem at the moment is Karen will not drive the V8, clutch is too heavy and she is also simply frightened of it! Common sense says that is the one to sell, but I change my mind on thar everytime I drive it! |

The feedback on the Bosch version has been as good as that from Rover/MG owners. I now also do one for the Mondeo/Xtype/Transit 2L TDCi - my X-ype estate is quicker than my 75 saloon and 30-70 in 2nd/3rd/4th is as quick as the S-type 2.7 twin turbo. Ron
