Oh okay, cheers. The problem is a blocked exhaust to the point where damage has been done to the valve in the manifold, so that'll have to be changed.
I'm ok with the sai system, it was just in the wrong place when the exhaust kicked off.  :(
I would never have thought how much damage a blocked exhaust could do . . .until now. :(

There isn't a valve in the manifold, though. :-\

It's still annoying though when your car breaks down before your holls.  >:(

A lot better than breaking down ON your holidays ....  :)

I thought there was a valve to let fresh air in?   If there isn't, then my exhaust is back to front.  ???

Breaking down anytime is a bad time . . .

It's just a hole. The valve is at the other end of the stainless pipework and all that can be binned.
