Re: Urgent HELP REQUIRED PLEASE (BOOST PIPE)

Will the screws work just on their own? Without the horse shoe clip? Because the hooks for that are broken.

Re: Start up query

Has the car had a service recently? Tried changing the fuel filter? Try putting in better fuel if your not already doing so (avoid supermarket fuels). Mine used to do this back in the winter after changing glow plugs its perfect now.
