Re: I dont know what went wrong! lsd into mk triton
Anyone? Anyway we swapped it all back into the donor housing, chopped the abs sensors off, and installed it into my truck.. So far all good. Still don't have any idea why it turned to poo the first time. Is it possible the backs pacing to the female spline on the diff centre is different? Putting ...

Hi, Bro's pajero wont engage into 4wd.. the light on the dash comes on, the passenger side cv turns when driving, but drivers side doesn't. It has auto hubs.

Re: diesel petrol injection, anyone done it?
Petrol injection is the new lpg injection. Same risks and problems, but worse because petrol can take a lower compression ratio than LPG can. I didn't actually realise there were issues with lpg injection :shock: So, petrol might ignite before the piston reaches the top? due to the heat in the ...

Re: diesel petrol injection, anyone done it?
as far as i can gather the petrol helps the diesel burn more efficiently, it is only a very small amount ie 10L per 140L diesel. It also apparently cools the intake air helping to reduce EGT's. there are tons of other listed benefits on the site, combustion chamber cleaning etc.
