Ok guys, if I can't get a refund on the manifold gasket, I will be selling It along with the old catch tank which is almost spotless (I will clean it out completely before posting) if anybody wants to make me an offer...?

well done for not taking the manifold off, but to be honest, you should of as a new manifold gasket is part of the full PCV system kit for £160. Its not that hard to get off either and makes for superb access to PCV catch can. While your their you get a chance to properly inspect Starter motor connections and makes sure everythings clean in that area before it goes back together. Good opportunity to properly clean Manifold and mating surface with emery cloth before refitting.
Ah well....

Agreed, Lee. It did cross my mind that the mani could possibly do with a clean but time was short and considering it's an ME7 plus the fact that I'd only just got rid of that bloody orange triangle, I wasn't keen on unplugging the TCM and upsetting something
All in good time, I'm now turning my attentions to the suspension - new front shocks and polybush the wishbones and lower engine mount.

TCM (transmission control module) ???
Do you mean ETM?
With respect, if you are capable of doing the PCV then its only a sensor, no different from unplugging the MAF!!
I cleaned my ETM a few months ago (it was quite black). They are quite resilient. Gave mine a good degunge with carb cleaner both sides till it was gleaming like a mirror inside. Refitted and boy, what a difference!!
I did take phots but i dont have them now.

ETM, that's it. trying to do dinner, control a 3 year old an be clever at the same time! something had to slip I might have a go when the suspension is out of the way. It's nice to know it's not as hard as I thought. It's one long learning curve for me loving every minute.
What sort of difference are we looking at here?

from the dead I know but I recently replaced my PCV and definitely have a bit of positive pressure, everything is 100% clean.
BUT someone had blanked that banjo off on my old pipe and rethreaded the inlet manifold so we had to blank it again with a nut/bolt etc. Could this be the source of my crankcase pressure? Seems to fit your description!
What a horrible job it will be to do again and I'll have to find a new banjo with the right thread.
I see u removed more bits than u should lol Done mine last year too,cost over £100 all the bits
To further resurrect this thread, think mine needs doing?
