⚡ ABS reacts faster than you can.

Wheel-speed sensors constantly monitor individual wheel speed. If one wheel decelerates faster than the others, the ABS module reacts preventing whee lock.

This happens many times per second, allowing maximum grip when braking.

Clever technology working in the background.

See that burnt pins?

That was the cause of an intermittent low fuel-pressure fault.

A poor connection created resistance and heat, reducing the voltage reaching the fuel pump. Sometimes it ran normally; other times the fuel pressure dropped.

A small burnt terminal will cause issues.

A wheel alignment isn’t just about making the steering wheel straight.

Toe, camber and caster all affect how the car turns, tracks and wears its tyres. On a modified car, the factory settings may not suit the suspension, wheels or how the car is being used.

Street car, weekend toy or track car—the alignment should suit the job.

Should you fit a catch can to a diesel?

Oil mist from the crankcase mixes with EGR soot and can build up inside the intake. A good catch can helps reduce that oil before it reaches the turbo, intercooler and intake manifold.

The downside? It needs to be correctly sized, properly installed and regularly drained. A restrictive or blocked catch can can increase crankcase pressure and create oil leaks.

They can help keep an intake cleaner, but they won’t fix excessive engine blow-by.

These injectors were full of muck because the fuel filter hadn’t been changed when it should have been.

A small service item that can prevent a much bigger repair.

💨 That small LS steam pipe has an important job.

The steam ports allow trapped air and vapour to escape from the hottest areas of the cylinder heads and return to the cooling system.

Blocking them or routing them incorrectly can create localised hot spots, unstable coolant temperatures and difficult bleeding.

On an LS conversion, the steam system needs a continuous path to a suitable point in the radiator or header tank—not simply a hose that looks connected.

🛢️ Well, there’s your oil leak.

This car came to us leaking oil after a previous filter change. The old O-ring had stayed stuck to the housing and the new filter was screwed straight over the top.

A classic rookie mistake known as a “double gasket.” It can blow out under oil pressure and dump the engine oil very quickly.

Always make sure the old seal comes off with the filter.
