thanks drivesafe. Sounds good. If I connect 10mm2 cable between the aux batt on ther car and the batt on the trailer won't they be in parrallel. Hence a big inrush of current when the trailer gets connected to the car especially if the trailer batt is pretty flat and the car battery is fully charged ...

thanks for that ruffy. sort of makes sense. I am pretty sure the 3L is not fitted with one. Had a good look today in the daylight and definitely not there. Spot on Bogan.

EGR - What the!!!!!

A mate has said that I should have the EGR blocked off on my hilux 3L. I know they are a exhaust gas recirc valve but what is the reason for recircing hot dirty exhaust gas back into the inlet side of your engine. Don't realy make sense. Secondly is the NA 2.8l diesel fitted with them or are they ...

Just a quick question. I have seen on prevoius topics some ideas for increased performance from the 2.8D Hilux 3L, being 2.5" exhaust and extractors and K&N air filter. Not to mention a Turbo. My question is will just a 2.5" exhaust and K&N filter do the trick or does the 2.5" exhaust need the ...
