Peter, it's on this routine that I've learned where the gauges seem happy. There's one section that the car wants to cross the 80C mark. It's when I approach the last hairpin curve. One more steep ascent and I "land." I ALWAYS let the car idle a few minutes before shutting it off to let the oil circulate on level ground, perhaps the turbo to cool a bit. > > Peter Frederick wrote: >> >> The only time this would damage anything is if you have a bad >> injector.
