removing turbo heatshield on a newage?


Recommended Posts

Posted

I'm trying to fix a small problem and it involves removing the heatshield. I've got all the bolts off (with lots of cuts etc to prove it!) and it moves freely but there doesn't seem to be enough room to get it up past the brake servo and pipes. Does anyone know if theres an easy way to get it out? All help gretally appreciated., sc.

ok maybe have to give it a bit more oomph tomorrow! Just didn't want to knacker anything but seemed to be getting lodged between the servo and a small block that some of the brake pipes connect into and couldn't see anything to help[:$]

ok, was drunk and was gonna visit you the morra, post a couple of pics and we might be able to help further

 

If I wasnt going to the Blues (Blue Angels) custom show the morra(in Irvine), I would pop up and have a look!)

update, bit easier when you have someone else to look as your taking it out! Twisted it round half a turn to passenger side and then came out without much hassle. Funny how its easier after a wee break, doh!
