Frequently Asked Questions About Gold Pendants Is this pendant suitable for sensitive skin? Yes. This pendant is made from solid gold, which is hypoallergenic and does not contain nickel or other common irritants found in gold plated or gold filled jewellery. It is safe for people with sensitive skin or metal allergies. What is the difference between nine carat and fourteen carat gold? Nine carat gold contains 37.5 percent pure gold mixed with durable alloy metals. It is harder and more resistant to scratching, making it ideal for everyday wear. Fourteen carat gold contains 58.3 percent pure gold, offering a richer colour and higher gold content while remaining durable enough for daily use. Both options are solid gold and will not tarnish or flake. Will this gold pendant tarnish or change colour over time? No. Solid gold does not tarnish, oxidise, or change colour. Unlike gold plated jewellery, which wears away to reveal base metals underneath, this pendant is solid gold throughout. It will maintain its colour and shine for a lifetime with minimal care. What chain length should I choose? A 40 centimetre chain sits at the base of the neck, just above the collarbone. A 45 centimetre chain sits lower, near the top of the chest. A 50 centimetre chain falls closer to the sternum. For most everyday wear, 45 centimetres is the most popular choice. If you are unsure, select 45 centimetres. Can I wear this gold pendant every day? Yes. This pendant and its matching chain are specifically designed for daily wear. Solid gold is durable enough to withstand sleeping, showering, swimming, and exercise.

Installation tips
Most common misdiagnosis.
Oil leaks can be caused by a variety of factors, the main factor being incorrect pressure within the compressor and turbine housings, which is usually caused by:
- Blockages to the air intake filter and/or hoses.
- Excessive crank case pressure (blow-by from worn piston rings/bores)
- Blockages in the exhaust system
- Repeated hot engine shutdowns leading to carbon deposits (coke) in the centre housing
- Dirty crankcase filter
- Use of silicon sealant / incorrect gasket, twisted, bent or trapped oil return pipe
Most common turbocharger failure causes on semi trucks:
- Foreign object damage – Broken off engine components, e.g. valves (D13), fragments of damaged pistons or injector tips, EGR block off plates.
- Oil contamination – High carbon build up present in the engine can quickly contaminate new oil, contamination of new oil while servicing.
- Degrading oil – excessive temperatures or extended service intervals.
- Internal engine leaks – fuel or coolant mixing with oil supply.
- Turbocharger overspeeding – Engine modifications including ‘chipping’ or ‘over-fuelling, bad program installed if EGR/DPF delete was performed, worn injectors. Tear in the air hose or the hose becoming completely detached. Restrictions in the air intake filter or pipe work. Air leaks between compressor and engine.
- Lack of lubrication –
-
- Engine left idle for long periods, especially during cold weather
- Oil feed pipes containing bends or kinks
- Lack of maintenance, oil change intervals should be shortened as engine gets old.
- Insufficient oil in the sump
- Incorrect oil inlet gasket used leading to restriction in oil supply
- Build-up (coking) / carbon deposits in the oil feed pipe
- Applying silicone to the oil inlet gasket causing blockages
- Sludge or coke build up in bearing housing from hot shutdowns
- Failure to prime the turbo with oil before initial run
