Joe you joined over two years ago dude - you should know to start with a search.

And it's hydraulic not hydrolic :(

Power steering reservoir = power steering fluid

Boot reservoir = ATTESSA reservoir = ATF

unrelated fluids.

The others you'll have to check for yourself dude

thanks for that, next time ill remember how to spell, didnt realise that this was a spelling contest!!

and if you didn't want answer the question, why waste your time talking crap about being a member for 2 years, i see it like this, if some can help out they will because they are genuine and want to help.. people who have nothing better to do that pick on spelling errors can shove their opinions where it fits!

But thanks to all the decent guyz out there who offer advice when asked.

Regards

Hey guyz

This one gets asked at least once each month. Surely you can remember seeing a similar question / answer in the past 4 weeks?

And this one has been asked very recently

And this one gets asked / answered about every week!

As does this one.

[rant]It's not that it's a spelling contest, it's just that some of us actually learned, and remember, how to spell - and we don't have time to sit around for half an hour trying to decipher some crappy word that the writer has been too lazy to look up in a dictionary when they aren't certain of the spelling. Or to sit around for an hour to decipher some crappy sentence when the writer has no idea how to contrstruct a sentence or use punctuation.[/rant]

Mate I apologise for offending you. The ability to accept constructive criticism is what differentiates the ignorant from the wise. Regardless, I am sorry I pointed out your error.

and if you didn't want answer the question, why waste your time talking crap about being a member for 2 years, i see it like this, if some can help out they will because they are genuine and want to help..

I'm a mod in this section, so I genuinely want to help. You'll note that I was actually helping you out mate and providing some information for you. I learned exactly the same way.

I mentioned you being a member for the last two years as that leads other members to make assumptions, such as expecting you'd know how to <Search>. Just the same as you expect a 15yr old to cross the road by themself or a 8yr old to tie their own shoelaces.

If you feel I was talking crap, fair enough, we all have opinions. :D

people who have nothing better to do that pick on spelling errors can shove their opinions where it fits!

I'm going to try very hard to keep this polite mate, but your comment is inflammatory. Please note that had you moved past the molehill you made into a mountain, you'd see that I was clarifying which reservoir relates to which fluid, and saving you from the expensive exercise of either putting ATF in your power steering reservoir or pouring power steering fluid into your 4WD system.

Now that's all out the way...

The reasons a search is the preferred place to start is:

1. It doesn't waste bandwidth with a duplicate thread.

2. It doesn't waste members' time with a duplicate thread.

3. It doesn't waste your time waiting for an answer that you could have found almost immediately.

If nothing else mate, point 3 should be the best reason to start with a search.

If you'd like to talk more on the subject of helping you out in future, please shoot over a PM.

Cheers Joe,

Mark

    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG is has not responded to my emails so far after purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
    • I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋
