    oil leak advice

    Given it another 2 trys yesterday. Have used different bolts and new seal. I tried pushing the seal in so its flush with the pump and I've tried pushing the seal in using the pulley both with no positive effect. Today I'm trying with a different pulley then I'm all out of ideas

    Right- conical washers, do they point in or out? I just can't get the crank pully to stop leaking :( I've inspected for cracks, given the inside/outside a good surface finish and changed the seal and washer.

    Engine won't start

    So what 'is' it doing? Turning over I guess? Is the fuel pump priming? Is there any splutters or short periods of ignition? Sounds very silly but you won't be the first- have you put a blank or stuffed something into your inlet manifold/intercooler to stop water/tools/etc getting in there...

    Hose Size FPR-Map sensor-manifold

    Hey there sorry to have to ask this but I'm looking at replacing my boost hose work for the fuel pressure regulator/map sensor/manifold line/boost controller. Does anyone know what diameter I should use? Thanks, I would check on the car myself if I was anywhere near it moment. Ben

    Are the Amplifier and crank angle sensor still connected? Maybe you knocked one off? If not I'm out :-)

    £6-7 quid from nissan. I'm quite surprised how cheap that is!

    Will check the crank pulley for cracks, are they normally visible by eye or will I need to die penetrant it? Will get another crank seal from nissan too
