    Unfortunately the best we can do is make lemonade when EPA hands us lemons. In the next 10 years every state is going to require 2010 or newer (if the Feds dont do it sooner). Even if they don't mandate it, are you planning on rebuilding 6NZ's or twin turbos for the next 30 years?

    Can I have a link or source on this data please?

    Tks

    So it's a VVA plug so what...The bakelite gets hard and cracks, remove and replace. I've had two of them go bad, big deal. 975,000 miles on BSX c-15, two injectors, two vva plugs, water pump, starter, uses 1 gal between oil changes, runs the best of any Cat I've ever owned. Your experience may differ, but "running" from one because of a bad VVA....?

    If it's on-line, it must be true. Computers don't make mistakes.

    How about as long as that's the best option available? Then go with a better option if and when it's available?

    Maybe some day a better choice might be available, but until then is there some reason we shouldn't do exactly that?
