One extremely worthwhile modification, if you have not done it already, is to modify the fuel filter housing (cutting down the stat, inserting a 10 cent coin, sealing everything back up), as this forces all of the veg to run through the maze heated by the coolant. Peugeot put it there for a reason, so you may as well use it. This alone will bring average fuel temps up by 10*c, which to veg makes a big difference.
Also r3k1355 is spot on with the tuning, a stage 1 does help, although I never really worked out why as the main problem is incomplete combustion. Meh.
'the penny trick'!
I always do this.
But doesnt help with cold starts...hence petrol/cetane booster
Indeed, although I never understood why as a penny doesn't fit unless you file the crap out of it.
Yep, bit of 'petty' to get it going, then once up to temp this mod takes care of the rest.
