Hello all,
My 1998 Peugeot 306 has a 1.9 litre XUD turbo diesel.
It has the intercooler on top of the engine, which is not ideal from a cooling point of view- it also means a fair whack of heat escapes via the bonnet.
Do I move the intercooler to the front and add insulation onto the bonnet?
Also the car has no undertray so I was considering putting foam insulation on the sump and block to improve warmup..
you can see what I mean in the pics below:
Intercooler setup
My bonnet after approx 10 mins and 1.5 mile running- seems to have melted a fair bit of snow!
This is the sump setup- just hanging out in the breeze:
