  1. Thanks Rumcajs. Will take on board re egr. Problems caused as you stated. Have dyno'd it before and after, run it on the highway, uphill and down dale, self tested at the recommended 26/27 hundred revs. etc etc. Only thing that worked was removing the egr blockage plate. I am not a mechanic and have little knowledge re the workings of the zd 30 engine and its electronics. I'm having the catch can fitted hoping that it will eliminate the "gunk"build up. Will also convey your experiences with the fan to the motor rebuilber. Thanks. Gypsygiant
  2. G'day all. First entry since joining. My ZD had the usual cardiac arrest shortly after joining. Got 287k out of it. Now completely rebuilt ($9.5k) and going great. Fitted 3"redback exhaust, egr blocked (caused problems) now unblocked, fitted pyro and boost guages. Am currently getting catch can fitted along with a 9"Davies Craig thermatic fan on the intercooler. When I took the items to my motor rebuilder today, he stated that he hadn't fitted a fan before. Can anyone give me some advice re the fitting of same so that I can pass it on to him please?. I only took it back to him so that he couldn't imply "not his problem" if someting went wrong down the track. Thanks Gypsygiant
