OK, so I realise that power and economy could be conflicting ambitions. So, I guess the answer is to try to improve efficiency. btw I use E5 petrol. the engine seems to be a standard n/a version at the moment. Now foir the questions. - How can I discover which camshaft and head I have? - I'll probably start with some obvious things, such as cleaning the sensors and airways. - I'm considering removing the exhaust manifild, and polishiung the internal airways. - I've got an ultrasonic cleaner, and I thought that I could use that to start to clean the injectors and other bits. What other things canb I do to help me to understand the redblock engines? __________________ Cinderella ( Cinders ) - 1988 Volvo 740 saloon with B230E engine The Hoe - 1990 Volvo 740 estate with B200E engine The House - 2005 LDV Convoy hightop with Ford Transit turbo engine.
