That would be great Terry, thanks very much. I will try it out to see how
it goes. BTW, the Friday you head away, I don't start work until 5pm, so
I'll be home all day if that helps.
Cya,
Wardy
PS: My FJ didn't come with the over boost valve as it was damaged in the
container on the way to AUS. Don't have a spare I could purchase off you ?
Anyhow, why does the engine have an overboost valve as the turbo has a
wastegate ?
