Sorted the fuel pressure and we have power again . Changed the EGR but can't get a gasket . Does anyone know where I can get one in the UK or is gasket sealant ok ? . Has anyone blanked off the egr ? And is it ok to do so ? . Thank you .

Re: Vitara 1.6 help please .
Pretty sure yes . It's exactly the same symptoms on the new engine as the old . The only part swapped from old is the alternator .

Re: Vitara 1.6 help please .
Also the only part I have used on both of the engines is the alternator. It was brand new and on the truck when it had the original engine fitted . It looks different to the original one I had on the replacement engine . Seeing the one I had was new I naturally changed it. Thank you
