Huw, (as I breathe with a sigh of relief) yes the IC
is after the fuel distributor.
On the inside of the engine rite in the middle of the
cooler at the very bottom rite to the side of the snub
mount there's an indent that I can put my index finger
in say about 1/4 to 1/2 inch! & it sure is all oily in
that area.
So maybe what your saying is replace the intercooler
with a good one & see what happens huh ;-)
But I've had air leakes before & this one seems
minor,
as when I burst the lower hose when I first bought
the car 4 years ago. I replaced all breather & turbo
hoses before I chipped & WG springed the car back in
the day.
Well thanx Huw glad to see an "ol salt" still here.
Thanx
