    Hi guys long time no see. I have a quick question. I have noticed a fuel smell inside the Plenum can anyone tell me why this is. i don't believe it to be normal and i am concerned about it. other than that she blows a bit of smoke under heavy gas for the first 2 seconds then runs clean does this mean it is time for turbo replacement?


    thanks guys

    Check all fuel line clamps. There are fifteen visible ones from memory in engine bay

    The injectors also spray into the plenum... I wouldn't be too bothered unless it smells like a petrol refinery.
