Grimace, my N/A patrol will still kick its ass.

It's funny because that's actually REV_310's patrol he posted that vid on youtube when he first installed it lol.

If you're still looking when I upgrade the turbo on my VL i'll shoot you a PM

VL turbo? RB25 turbo? RB20 turbo? Those are all T3 Or mitsubishi TD06 turbo they have a weird mitsubishi flange and the compressor housings are also reversed (brilliant mitsubishi idea ) goes well on TD42.

Pyro probe should be before turbo always. Yes 450 to 500 maybe 550 under load sounds about right, with a full exhaust though it will be slightly higher as there is more back pressure. I know this example is a land cruiser but my mates 80 series turbo diesel is running 18PSI with fuel upped to suit ...

Go away with your shitty series one! Come back to me when you have the spectacular options mine has.

Diesel is the opposite of petrol. Leaning a petrol car out will make egt's hotter, more fuel will cool. Where as leaning a diesel out will cool it down, richening will heat gasses up. If you richen up your diesel keep an eye closely on your egt's anything above 650 is not safe. Tow a loaded trailer ...

The pump timing has never been touched, and it starts and free revs way to easy for the pump timing to be out.

Anyone??

Hey guys I have an issue with my GQ 4.2 diesel. It starts, idles and free revs to redline, however under any kind of load it mis-fires blows a f*&% load of white smoke and carries on like a retard. I have tried everything short of replacing the injector pump, the lift pump works fine, the pick up in ...

Did you get this sorted? Sorry I haven't been on in months, have been lacking internet lol.

The lift pump is what the fuel filter screws onto i'll lok into the glass bowl and let you know.

There is no in tank pump there is a lift pump where the fuel filter is. I changed mine, I now have the glass fuel bowl type. Much better just have to check it for water periodically.

I made mine for free just using stainless off cuts from a mates work.

My mate has a petrol 100 series and it tows his HUGE boat no worries. However the turbo diesel 100 series do it much much easier. We headed to Willowglen with a few mates and they had a turbo diesel 100 auto with his comp truck on a trailer with both cars full of camping gear and he was overtaking ...

You can also change your diff ratio's to correct your speedo

There is the rust issue.
Stainless is heavy and suffers badly from heatsoak. Once hot it stays hot for a while.
Alloy is the way to go it cools fast and stays cool.

Haha long converted Nissan driver. I love my diesel GQ and it helps that I'm also a mechanic.

Around 45 mins to 1 hour If you know what you're doing. That's being conservative I think mine took about half hour last time, I rushed it a bit though was running late for a wheel in the Wattagans.

In that case use the same wire to break the ignition power to the fuel stop soleniod on the injector pump then they can crank all day to no avail!

It is hard to immobilise a diesel all you really have to do is pop the bonnet, power the fuel stop soleniod and clash the starter.

Put No 1 on TDC and adjust 1,2,4,5,8,9

Then put No 6 on TDC and adjust 3,6,7,10,11,12

Numbers are valves front to rear

Set them all to 14 thou or 0.35mm all hot.

Should have kept it a well back! looks good though. Will be cutting mine up when I have the funds!!

After pulling mine apart they are actually quite easy, yours is the same as mine just smaller. I picked up a manual for GU by Max Ellery, damn good manual has the exploded view of the starter pretty simple when you can reference to that.

Haha yeah I will be heading there this weekend we're entering a VERY decent 80 series for Northwest 4x4 club. I get to chill back as the navi lol.

PM sent.

Well it must be working if it moves freely and is not gunked up with crap.

What is your EGT sitting at under full load?

Mine was made with off cuts



Just tidied up the hole afterwars with a bit of half cut rubber hose.

That snorkel cost me nothing at all to make just about 2 hours of time.

The relay that breaks the wire to the coil could break the wire to the starter (because yours is diesel) works on the same principle it just immobilises cranking? Would be alot easier than trying to wire it into the inhibitor.

the other thing he suggested before I start getting him to look at injectors etc was tappets???? I know nothing of these, what they do etc etc and will likely get someone professional to look at them - again he was sending me elsewhere to get them checked. any thoughts on those? and how they would ...

Hi,

My starter crapped and is in need of the pinion clutch in the reduction drive gearbox.

Any idea's where to find on or does anyone have a Td42 starter that has also crapped with the reduction drive still good?

Also if anyone has a second hand one I could buy??

Thanks!

Ok so I got it apart.

The clutch in the reduction drive is stuffed! I can't find one, there is a website with the part I need but they wont sell direct to the public
