Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Hi guys,

I'm looking at fitting a turbo to my GQ.
I'm wondering if anyone has had any experience with the TD42 turbo kit from 4wd systems. what's included in the kit? and if there is anything else i need to get on top of the kit.

Thanks, any info is much appreciated.

sounds very much like the idle up supply line,

nastytroll, did you give the line a clean out, mine had done the same thing when i got it (just dangling down, i thought it was a drain line until i saw it in my manual one day) i plugged it in, it did nothing, so i took it off gave it a flush out ...

HEY GUYS,

WHAT DOES EVERYONE DO WITH THE CRANKCASE VENTILATION LINE ON THE ROCKER COVER OF THE TD42 WHEN REMOVING THE MAIN AIRBOX FOR A TURBO.

Bigbear,

hi guys,

i'm just wondering what everyone is using for intake hoses and where i can get it, i require an I.D. of approx 92 mm.

i am removing the prefilter in my '89' gq td42 and fitting a home made 90mm PVC storm drain snorkel and need something to go from that to the main airbox. Factory pipe is ...

hi johnflink,

not sure if yours has the same issue but i had one that was doing the same thing, turned out to be the guage sender leaking and i was told that it was a common issue, so before pulling the pump out i would try checking the pressure with a test guage first.

do a bit of ringing around, i managed to source some new aftermarket fixed glasses for them from a mob here in dubbo and you can just use generic 'H' seals to fit them, however if you want to keep the sliding windows you can get the frames off ebay sometimes for about $200 each and you just swap ...

if it helps mechanical guages also used to be known as a capillary guage, so as zagan said, in the instance of oil pressure, you would run a small (1/8th or 1/16 inch) pipe into the guage which can lose accuracy, however, Zagan, that is why aircraft guages are required to be calibrated at certain ...

COOLANT DRAIN IS AT THE BACK OF THE BLOCK LEFT HAND SIDE JUST NEAR THE OIL PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE

what brand of rifle is it?

i have heard that the GQ seats should bolt straight in

just terminate them they are only used when a remote imobiliser/alarm is installed aswell

go buy yourself a cheap allen key (the size that has to be tapped in), then tap it in and just put two or three tack welds from th allen key to the plug allow it to cool then turn screw out the allen key.

the welds should, one slightly shrink the plug and two the heat should break any seal (ie ...

Hi Guys,

Just wondering if anyone can post some pics for me, of the rear evaporator in a patrol.

I am considering installing one in my GQ and wish to have a look at how the factory set them up

thanks in advance.

i was quoted $250 per side for the frame and rubber, not including the glass.

HEY BUSHPIG,

WHERE CAN YOU GET THEM FOR $120 AND IS THAT EACH OR FOR THE PAIR.

I took the earth from the bullbar.

switch circuit starts at the highbeam wire at the back of the light, goes to pin 86, from pin 85 into a dash switch then to an earth under the dash

the light circuit starts at the pos terminal, goes through a 20 amp fuse to pin 30, from pin 87 (dual pin 87 relay ...

Hi Guys,

I fitted a set of driving lights to a mate's 2000 model prado on the weekend.

Now, when he turns on the driving lights the stereo shuts off for approx 1 second.

It is a factory stereo.

does anyone have an idea of what might be happening?

P.S does it regardless of wether the engine is ...

Thanks

Hi guys,
I'm building a small dc generator, i am wondering if anyone knows how to calculate the number of turns needed on each coil winding to generate a given number of volts, also the diameter of wire to get a given number of amps.

Thanks

The MQ/MK has Three different ratios, these are 4.111:1, 4.625:1 and 4.875:1.
The way to figure it out is to turn the pinion shaft one complete revolution while counting the number of times that the axle turns.
for example if you turn the pinion shaft one turn and the axle turns four times plus ...

correct me if i'm wrong but i Think some people here are a bit confused as to what biodiesel actually is. Biodiesel is NOT when you just mix old fish & chip oil with normal diesel, biodiesel is where the oil is put through a chemical process whereby you remove the glycerine from the oil, the product ...

Just wondering if it is possible to put a GQ diff centre into an MQ axle housing?

Autocad is easy once you learn how to use it.

read the help files, go to google and search for tutorials and just have a play around with the program itself you will end up getting the hang of it

disagree.

black smoke is too rich on fuel. full stop.

white is raw or left over fuel in the cylenders from cold motors or weeping injectors.

blue is burning oil.

V8PATROL is 100 percent spot on the mark.


Yeah Sorry i had my info f*#!ed up, but it's still good to se people giving good simple ...

White smoke is a sign of a cold motor= replace the glowplugs.

Black smoke is a sign of a rich mixture= not a major drama in a diesel

Blue smoke is from oil being burnt=replace either rings or get the valves lapped in (they may need "K liners" too) and new valvestem seals fitted.

If your ...

I beg to differ, i hit a bit Roo at about 110k's and if i didn't have a bullbar it ...

It is a drier fuel and it also burns alot hotter, its not a got idea because it will stuff your engine, I work in the aerial ag industry and the pilots use JETA1 in the work utes, one only lasted about 20 000 KM

I just rebuilt mine and when you come to getting the bearing with part number 63/32NC3 get the same bearing WITHOUT a groove in it, as the one with the groove costs around $1500, or thats the best price i could get but the one without only costs around $40, the groove is not required.
