What are the Pro's and Con's of this, i was told it dont make alot of diffrence with performance but helps keep Breathers unblocked.

Any other views or opinions on this guys?

will drop the fuel consumption approx 0.5 liter / 100 kms..

acceleration very very slightly better..

EGR wont become dirty..

when the engine become hot will play with the idle a bit..

  This couldn't be whats causing my idle to be 1100 rpm can it as it was alright before i blocked it off and can find no other cause such as air leak etc?

A lad on the Yahoo group had some plasma cut via work some years back. It's that long back now I can't remember who. It was a perect copy of the gasket though in 2 or 3 mm plate ...... without the midddle hole!

How easy are the bolts to be undone?

I take it best will be whyen engine is hot?

Also is tehre a link on the"  how to "to this.

I know its a simple task but i just wanna see how others have done it?

[Entwood]

just make sure you DON'T unplug the EGR ..that will cause an EML fault for certain ...

[Christian]

Ok, thanks very much for your help, i will do this on Thursday when i have my day off work.

Cheers.

Only if you want to burn your fingers! Probably makes no difference, but cold is nicer.
