From my build...

Thanks mate. It's either 125 or 130lt. Ill find out when I go fill it up tomorrow. I took the opportunity to clean the fuel delivery system. I took the inlet and return lines off the fuel pump and ran a can of diesel purge through.
I forgot to take pics as I got caught in the moment. To sum it up you pour 500ml of purge into a clean container. You take the inlet hose off the fuel pump. A length of hose goes onto the pump and into the purge liquid with an inline plastic filter along the hose.
The return line from the fuel rail goes into the container also. Start the engine and let it run. Vary the revs. It gets warm. keep the liquid topped up so it doesnt run dry. The purge cleans deposits on the injector tips, pump and lines.
It seems to idle a lot smoother and has lost the 'knock' it had before. On tune3 I was getting a small puff of black smoke on acceleration. Post flush this has gone.
Will see how it runs tomorrow once I fill the tank and go for a cruze.
