hi guys not been on for a rw weeks as iv been moving house but its all sorted now and back on with the turbo build so i orderd my a/f ratio gauge today and wondered if anyone wouldnt mind welding the sensor boss for me as im guessing it has to be totaly sealed. and my welding isnt perfect. Done now needs redoing lol |

i thought it may have to be sealed really well that was all and i know some of you guys have tig welders which would be better for the job, but if it doesnt really matter then i shall, am i correct in thincking best place for sensor is before the knuckle in the exhaust? Done now needs redoing lol |

Hi mate, if you drop it round to mine- I live in horn castle which is down the road, il weld it up for you at work! Fabricator by trade you see! If you do it yourself just get it good and clean and protect the threads from spatter. Cheers Ben |

Oh yeah make sure you fit a bung in place when welding, otherwise it will more likely distort. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Fusion-Fabri..._homepage_panel
