I will say in advance, that T4 sessions may end up being limited though I hope not. And this is why:
As anyone who has attended knows, I use a generator to keep the T4 computer, and a battery charger going. It's heavy,and noisy. That said it's an amazing survivor from the early 90's.

I did some measurements at the last meet. Peak power drain 200W, total power use less than 100Wh. So based on that my new box will work all day. But I'll be honest it just seems too smallm and light to actually deliver all the power for those T4 sessions.


Hi Duncan.
I've spoken to Don whom had a T4 session and says one of his injectors is or was reading 8.0 therefore i have asked him to come to this meet, have another session so we can take an look together then i can do a leak back test for him, that way when he gets his injector i will know for certain if he needs one or more, also he said something about his MAF being out of spec, i have a spare which can be swapped out before he goes on the the T4 or even at the same time, cheers Steve.


Hi, shouldn'tbe a problem. Tell him to get his name on the list early and we will do it as soon as ready.

I have additionally invested in a solar panel that will help to keep the box topped up.

I will be down albeit in the Zafira.

I will bring the gazebo to provide shade for Duncan and his T4.

Cheers

Brilliant, thanks. Looks like it could be a 'warm' one so will be very much appreciated.

Just one prep job left to sort out the stand for the computer where the grip has never really worked from new. Not a biggie if I don't get to it as it works.

On another theme, I'll be very interested in discussing details with anyone who has replaced the compressor to condensor pipe on a diesel. I've got very close to the last part, and think it can be done without disconnecting / draining the coolant pipes.
