Re: where do you get your GU 4.2 ST tuned /dyno

Yes I know Steve and have had one of my patrols tuned by him at his last place of employment. Have also been out to comps and camped with the same group. Steve is a top bloke and I was always very satisfied with the work he did as what I asked for he could give me exactly that. Some people like to ...

Re: Dust Ejectors

The systems on these machines have a one way valve to prevent exhaust going back in. The also like you said have a vortex style intake before the filter which will throw the heavier particles to the outside of the housing then sucked out by the ejector. If it was a scaled down setup of what I see ...

Re: Dust Ejectors

Only a question. But why a restriction? From what I have seen its just a pipe inserted into the muffler and the air passing over this orifice creates a vacuum. The concept works extremely well on a mine site where ther is just as much if not more dust than what a 4by will see. It doesnt remove all ...

Dust Ejectors

Just wondering if anyone has toyed with the idea of dust ejectors on a 4wd? The equipment I work on has this system on them where a pipe joins the intake (pre filter) and the exhaust (post turbo) and "ejects" the dust. This setup works incredibly well and without it these machines will easily clog a ...

Get onto hastings or westrac depends on where you are located. Any CAT dealer should be able to size your battery and supply you one with the right dimensions and output. They are cheap, sturdy and very reliable batteries and as its been said have a great warranty. If you give us a location we can ...

If your getting a chip get a chip that controls your injection timing and duration. There are a fair few chips which just control fuel rail pressure and this puts added strain on your fuel system pump, injectors,seals etc. The chips that control the injectors themselves leave the fuel pressure at ...

Re: 4.2 diesel fuel adjustment

Its on the back of pump runs horizontally. They normally have a cap on them from factory. You will probably find one of the fuel lines will get in the way of it slightly. I think its the feed line that gets in the way.

Re: pyro temp hotter after fitting intercooler How, Why?

When you intercool as your cooling the air and making it less dense you are reducing the pressure of the air so you either need wind more fuel out of it or push more boost. It could be your whole combo that isnt efficient enough, your pump maybe at its max and cannot produce enough fuel to make ...
