  1. I would say its turbo oil seals if you have oil in the intercooler.
  2. U seem pretty clued up Adam. I have heard of people running their engines in on a dyno. What are your thoughts on this?
  3. Well that is the normal procedure for running in a new engine anyone else who knows will tell you the same thing. I did this on both of my forged motors as its what my engine builder advised me to do. I would also check valve clearances after 1000 miles.
  4. this is normal dude dont worry. On a fresh engine i recommend using mineral oil for the 1st 1000 miles. 1st oil change at 50 miles second oil change at 200 miles 3rd oil change at 500 miles 4th oil change at 700 miles 5th oil change at 1000 miles. After 1000 miles use the oil of your choice. Hope this helps.
  5. Wow i never new this. Good bit of info keep us posted on this.
  6. do a compression tests when the engine is warm. I always check the gap on the plugs with a feele gauge regardless of being pre-gapped or not.

    Do I have abs? - gt

    If a gt has abs there will also be a 4-ABS sticker on the rear window
  19. I paid £750 recently for an almost stock gt with approx 75k on the clock. I have been offered £1500 already and in not even looking to sell it just yet. I know the car will be worth alot more after i have given it a good clean up.
  20. if its pre 93 then no emission test is required anything after 1993 will be tested for emissions . Your best bet is to find a friendly mot tester. I know some charge a little extra to pass failed tests but this is illegal.
