I've ordered the one in the linkChinese blanking plate is all I run. Cost £8. Not worth paying Forge ~3x for their plate to do exactly the same job.
Well volunteered !Blanking plate has arrived, pretty quick on the delivery. So, is there a guide on fitting it? Hoses the sort etc. I have absolutely no idea what to do with it or where it even goes but want it fitted.![]()
Blimey, that doesn't sound too hard to do. Thanks for that mate@Ricardo it's easy to do, the vac pipe that goes to the existing re-cirv valve just trace it back and just cut and cap it off/ blank it (Worth doing this last once you have the plate in situ just in case you have removal issue's).
Location of the blanking plate just a case of removing the exisiting re/circ valve of the compressor housing of the td04, it's fiddly to remove the existing one but it's only 3 bolts think they are 10mm from memory. And then just a case of cleaning surface of where existing re/cirv valve was and then install the blanking plate.
@Ricardo I'm down south next Saturday if you want that blanking plate fitted, and/or someone else to cast an eye over your engine. Likewise if you wanted to put it on Track n' Road rollers then as well?
Can also bring along Clip if you want anything checking/amending.
