Engine Preheater.
Mmm not sure to be fair, I've seen the block heaters before they just plug in to one side, of you have no joy here may be worth looking at or cousins over the pond as loads of them use stuff like that in the colder regions of the states

Hi
It's due a cambelt so I'd expect to knock off 400 at least (independent garage) double that for dealer , it's steep for the year looks clean, you'd prob get a bug for cheaper as they are slightly less loved,if it's close to you it may be worth a look but I reckon you'd find something you like if you kept hunting

Couldn't get turbo to boost on remap
Agree with ghost, that's a weird thing to be saying, the only thing the oil does is cool & lubricate it, has should have no effect on what it spins at, they rotate at 100,000 rpm plus so a different oil shouldn't make a blind bit of difference, I've been told fully synth is slightly less viscose than semi so in theory according to your chap it should work better ? What kind of power are you after ? A 3 port boost solinoid would help control the boost better,did he give any indication of it was holding ok or bleeding off stx

140 quid for new spark plugs?!?
Can do but takes longer I've watched my guy fo it, if you just do one side at a time and jack up slightly it moves the block in an upward diagonal movement allowing much easier access to plugs

Remapping auto Forester
strange creatures to say the least ! Mine almost feels diesel like in the way it comes in now below 2k and I'm in 4th without having to go above 2.5k will potter along at 35 no problems, it has run out of puff on my by about 4.5k but I'm not one of these for thrashing it around everywhere anyway I used to get around 100 miles to 30 quid now it's up to around 150 [emoji51]
