Hi, thanks for the information. Too much to reply to the timing question at present without really studying the links. My german doesn't exist so it will take a while.
With regards the cooler: - there is an article on the web called the $2000 O ring which gives all the diamensions and I have set it up to that. Did remove the gasket after reading it. Have done an oil pressure test and it's fine (7 bar at startup droping to 2 bar at tick over when hot) Oil pressure light never comes on. The cover is non thermastat with a 4mm bypass hole. The older one I believe had a 2mm hole but this I think put too much pressure on the cooler. Have blown through the cooler and although there is resistance it is clear. It would seem there is equal pressure in the flow and return pipe to the cooler which is stopping any oil movement. Why and how could this be?
Back to studying German. Thanks for your input. David
