My AAZ did not like .95mm timing. Had to replace head gasket. Not sure but I think the pump has a timing curve that doesn't like the higher rpm, about 3k rpm at 60mph. I got a hybrid turbo that has less hiss when boost is present. On May 28, 2015 12:29 PM, "Stuart MacMillan" <stuartmacm@gmail.com> wrote: > Biodiesel runs $4.75. It isn't easy (or cheap) being green.
