well i wont get rid of it, as i could not hand it over to any-one with a clear conscience...

am thinking of possibly switching the turbo though....

am concerned about the lag, but thinking maybe going to a TD5 unit, with it having amuch larger exhaust housing ti should be up to the job....

Also i am wondering if the pump timing solenoid is failing, as if it is, and thec ar is running huge amounts of advance it would increase cylinder pressures a lot....

To make me think that it is really sluggish starting and takes a while to settle down to a smooth idle....
