Got up nice and early to check out the actuator situation today. Farker had negative preload lol. It was open about 1mm. Nevermind though cos I've got a 12psi adjustable one and injectors etc etc. If not I spose I could have bent the bracket out a bit. Figure today would just be actuator, gap the plugs, injectors, wideband and tune. Plugs first cos why not. The car had a 150,000km service record but the plugs weren't done. Figure I may as well give it a comp test before I go to town cos #healthcheck Here are the comp numbers. Needless to say I didn't fit any parts or tune it, although I did waste some tuning credits to read the tune and compare it to the log. Called the dealer and said I'm returning it under the 2 day cooling off clause. Ironically the stuffed wg preload is probably what kept it alive...

At least I know it'll be done the way I want it plus I can use a few bit's I've collected along the way. Just one of those things ay. Meh. 2
