I made the most of the good weather today, went out and fitted the replacement ETM. So here's some photos of the job with a few comments, please note the photos aren't as sharp as they normally are because I've used the stills shot facility on my camcorder, (batteries are flat on my Olympus).
First job is always to disconnect the battery, something I forgot to do and ended up with sparks half way through the job when my tool hit the red cable (ooops!)
Anyway first, I gave the replacement ETM a good old clean as it was totally caked in carbon and burnt fuel deposits......
Before....
After..... (much better!)
Removed the radiator fan, part of the boost pipe, the air intake hose and the Intercooler to ETM pipe, disconnecting the electrical connectors where necessary....
