There is a old addage " if it aint broke dont fix it"

My car is running fine , always has,taking that into consideration i have decided to take my plenum off replace all electrical connectors to coil and injectors and do a water bypass as well as a pcv valve replace , throw in a fuel line and vacuum line replace and maybe polish the plenum or paint it gold with caliper paint ,im cacking myself cause of the old " if it aint broke dont fix it" addage, heres hoping i dont break it..lol

Any other things to do whilst i have the plenum off as i dont want to do it again?

 

Just pulled the coil packs i bought from smithy out and decided to try and polish one...heres the results they were originally painted red....should i do the others do you think?

 

 

if i remember rightly the brackets are steel and will rust overnight if you leave them like that, they need clear coating.

cheers bud

If it aint broke don't fix it? Hows about cambelts? :tongue: :rofl:

they were done 8000miles ago along with the water pump and aux belts :tongue: :tongue: :tongue: :dance:

nice bed :rofl:

thats not a bed its a workshop..if it was a bed that means i was working in the spare room and the missus has banned me from doing that :)

you mean u sleep in the workshop? :rofl: :rofl:

if you have a bed in the workshop does that mean you give her 1 on the work bench in the bedroom?

i have promised not to use the spare room as a workshop anymore...theres one promise out of the window already......as for giving her one , if she catches me using the spare room for the car stuff again I doubt i will get one for a year or so

you didnt say no last time andy

I had my coilpack brackets chromed, which looks good. Have you had your injectors cleaned, if not would be a good time. Also, do you still have the EGR valve??? Could also take you IAA apart & clean it :)
