    BodgeSport 1p EGR modification bodgeroo!

    Right,

    Mentioned this before, but this is now one of my fave bodges.

    The EGR plates provided by Adam are a really nice finish when you remove the mushrooms from the plenum. Pat and I settled on this for the exhaust pipe part of the EGR.

    Here's the pipe:-



    Here's one I prepared (angle grinded!) earlier:-



    Here's a 1p coin:-



    And here's the finished item:-



    Bodge complete!

    you want old tom mate thats proper thinking juice.

    did you spunk some exhaust paste around the coin then as you may want to use it one day?

    Exhaust paste costs money!

    This doesn't seem to leak (well it didn't on the last two) so we left it as is.

    Let's face it, I can always upgrade to €0.02c if needs be!

    That's the funny thing Adam. Pats is still as was. It's never needed another look. I'm guessing that modern coins are bronze, with a bit of copper to cheap them up a bit.

    Seems to cope fine, even with pats driving.

    Indeed.... i think it's pre 72 where the money is now in the metal. 2p coins being worth 4.6p in scrap - although must say it's illegal to weigh in coinage!
