Re: just fitted new overboost valve on my jtd

Some garages do a part ex service - so they can get your old one reconditioned and sell it on - this might be worth an ask?

You must be joking surely

Can't believe a little overboost valve is going to cost much more than £40

Fairly easy to clean anyway and I'm not even convinced they fail that often (apart from after excessive soaking)

Re: just fitted new overboost valve on my jtd

noticed it a bit only 4 or 5 miles to the gallon round town, but with prices like they are now may as well squeeze as much out of it as possible. the performance improvements are the most noticable
