Evening everyone!!
Been a proud owner of my 54 hse for a week now and I absolutely love it!
Going to attempt the egr valve blanking tomorrow using the guide from here.
Never done any kind of mechanical work before,but really looking forward to having a go.
Great site and advise.

Evening and welcome, EGR blanking is quite simple, but if you have large hands remove some of the plastic storage tub on the off side to enhance access Thumbs Up

This is the start of a long list of mods though Rolling with laughter

Hi and welcome Thumbs Up

Rolling with laughter I was going to do that at work today but got tied up in other things Big Cry

I may be going for it Sunday Wink I've got to bring the stand back from the royal cornwall show then it's on the menu.
I had a refresher read of very disco's tread again last night. Dug the heat gun out and everything Rolling with laughter
Watch this space, it'll be tears at the weekend, maybe joy maybe sadness. Whistle
