I've been cleaning and fixing and replacing things in my car as I learn what goes where and whats missing and what needs rehab......Amongst my pondering I have been reading and reading.....and reading the archives....

The normally dark light bulb above my head emit a faint glow last night As I pondered the turbo inlet and the soon to be installed shut off valve at the injection pump....

Just shy of having nightmares I'm slowly and methodically preparing for the shut off valve replacement in hopes of not gaining personal experience with a runaway condition.

OK OK enough rambling here's my idea......

Instead of a phone book (No phone in my garage) I'm going to have a hockey puck handy.....If I get fancy I may take a puck and (with a circle cutter) cut a circular groove the same diam. as the turbo inlet. whaddaya think?
