Hi All,

 

Just pulled the recircs off (I have Blitz BOVs, been running these for a while with the standard recircs in place). Thought I might as well junk the old recircs whilst the engine was out. I now need something to effectively and reliably plug the hardpipes where the recircs were fitted. Anyone done this? What did you use?? I also need a few rubber covers to blank off various vacuum take offs from the balance bar etc (removed EGR and AIV) - these seem to be easily available in the US but not over here...any ideas anyone??

 

Thanks in advance

I once plugged the recirc pipe with the top of a aftersahve/perfume bottle it fit perfectly, but that was a one off..... was a crome top also so looked the part, was quite lucky, go and raid your bathroom cupboards sure ul find something haha. you could have a armani hose setup. proper bling.

do a search - i seen a few things on this a few times.

For the vacuum blank-offs go to your local motor factors and ask for diesel injector return bungs (or something like that), perfect tight fit.

Cheers for that, I was hoping to remove the hose and 'cap' the hard pipe outlet but I guess the result would be the same..
