Colin are you sure yours is a true ATMO and not the low pressure SD model they did around 96? That had a Bosch pump too, with no intercooler at first glance they look quite similar to a ATMO.
Daft question but how would i be able to tell if it is the low pressure SD model :oops: :oops:
is there anything that gives it away or is it something i have to look really hard to spot :) :)

Have been driving it for the last month and have to say its not as sluggish as i first thought although still not as good as the TD but having filled it up with SVO have been able to be a bit more heavy footed and it is does go quite well and i still have an MPG of about 44 :D :D

I knew that was coming :lol: :lol: just thought that as it had no intercooler it may have some extra trunking to identify it without delving below the exhaust etc :) :)

Cant see any trunking out of the ordinary so will have a look for the obvious :lol: :lol:

Any ideas on how mechanically different the versions are ie N/A Low Pressure and TD
