rotorboyazza Member 21 Member For: 12y 10m 23d Posted 08/08/12 08:27 PM Author Share Posted 08/08/12 08:27 PM The last owner had it from new(2003,9 years),as a work vehicle only had it serviced and maintained no retune no mods except for the exhaust, ute has done 205000Km's I have now replaced TPS, cleaned out throttle body and replace the hose off that (big split all the way around it),coil packs(all but 1 had crackes) and spark plugs.Checked the 1 way valve off the cam cover and cleaned that out,replaced the BOV vac hose too (was to short) Over here in NZ a retune is going to cost me $1195+gst($1375NZ$),$309+gst for a 2nd hand cat off a vehicle done over 100000km's, which is money I done have to waste on this ute as it was meant to be just a run around,to date it owes me $11800 (NZ$) and yes I am trying to do fix it on the cheap,so any other ideas?
