Re: GTI6 engine conversion
i removed the tb form the inlet manifold and cleaned and painted it silver. cleaned all the sensors and injectors from the manifold up aswell.
got couple of small brackets to finish spraying and the fuel rail to finish spraying. Then i will need to clean and paint the engine block next week.
