well guys what can i say. you have just saved me a load of bunce sorting my last problem out now i need help with this one.
my astravan 1.7td 2001 has a dickie turbo. i doesn't work more than it does. if you on a motorway and you really try and boot the hell out of it , it will come on but it works very rarely.. my last problem was due to a coked up , dirty diesel valve thingy, could this possibly be a strip down clean up job or is it a new one needed.. many thanks guys i owe you another one hopefully..cheers js
