I know there are a few members with UT engines in their X, and many more that have UT knowledge, so here are a couple questions:
1) For the coolant lines to/from the turbo, in the Haynes manual (only workshop reference I have for it) there is a picture of the system. Although it is not labeled, and I found no reference to it in the description, there appears to be something in the coolant return line, about half way between the turbo and recovery tank. Is there a check valve or something in that line on the stock design?
2) Despite having inter-changeable components, I've read that the UT uses different gaskets than the FI X1/9. The ones I've seen mentioned are for things like the manifolds to the head, between the intake runners and the plenum, etc.. But possibly also for other gaskets on the engine. Likewise for any seals; fuel injector seals, front/rear main seals, shaft seals, or any other places where such items are distinct to the UT application. Please verify these differences and provide some part numbers (or at least detailed descriptions) for the gaskets/seals that are different.
Thank you for the info.
