Yep she certainly does haha me and munk just turfed it out and i suppose the can is a must have after seeing what it collects!! intercooler was clean as a whitle along with everything else that normally gets caked in oil so i recon its a must ! cheers for the help munk[ give the old girl a good polish today too and comes up lovely!! will get some photos uploaded soonATTACH]1165[/ATTACH]

yeah i noticed that once it was out looks abit awkward to get at so i think taking the whole lotout would be the easyist option least that way itl get a real good clean, we also adjusted the hose on the intercooler which seems to have worked! now it pulls lovely without the splutter just for reference which engine oil did you use??cheers!
