Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Hi Guys, For those Feroza members who remember Leon & Roza.

Selling the Surf and getting a new Zooky Jimny.


Smiles Leon

Thanks for the pics Rod,

Yeah, could maybe plan ahead that far.

Leon...

Yeah, Rod, Aj
I guess I miss the old days. You know wheeling in the Blue Mountains every weekend.

Remember that big long mud climb in the Jenolin State forest?

That's gotta be one of my lifes best memorys.

Also driving back from Canberra I took the long cut through Dingo Dell just so I could ...

Thinking of changing the Surf for another Roza !!! Miss that little truck.

The Surf gets between 12.5 & 10.5 litres per 100 K's

Can't remember what Roza did. Can someone refresh my memory.

Cheers Leon...

Only problem with an AP50 fitted to a Roza is in hilly country ( say between Lithgow & Bathurst ) they haven't got enough power.

Be alright for most of the trip to Darwin.

piece of piss to fit.

Cheers Leon...

I used to bust engine mounts all the time, never had a problem with the Surf but I still miss Roza.


Cheersa Leon...

Now retired in Buxton Qld.

Have to tell you after stuffing around with the Hiflo injectors for months on end I decided to get my origional ones rebuilt with genuine parts.

What a differance. Genuine is better than cheap made in China sxxt.

Also much improved mileage from 13 to 10.7 lp100k's


Cheers Leon...

Hi Guys,

I fixed mine by buying a Surf.

Cheers Leon...

Still miss my Roza.

Some where near there Rod, I think we turned East the other side of Nowra. Can remember an aircraft or Air force museum we visited the same day.

We were going some where to 4WD but the track was closed due to the bush fires I think.

I remember we came out on the Canberra Batemans Bay road.

That ...

Yeah Rod, we used to get out about every weekend.
Remember the Hamburgers Mate?

Yep, Been doing a bit of work on the Surf & got it down to 10.2 litres per 100 k's. Better than the 14 it used to do.

Really am sorry I traded Roza on the Surf.

Love that Avatar, was as close as I've ever come to being upside down. Jacksons lane was where it was taken.

Cheers Leon...

Hi everyone,

Still alive & kicking here in Buxton Qld. What do I do all day besides miss my Roza? Well the sun comes up and the sun goes down, the tide comes in & out and Leon goes fishing.

Great to most of the old boys still posting.

Boy I miss my Roza.

Cheers Leon...

Thanks Big-Stu

Cheers Leon...

Hi guys, long time no post, Been too busy fishing 7 doing nothing.

If any one has Heaths e-mail ( NSW WARFS FAME ) could they let me have it or give him mine.

I want to tell him I have at last been able to realise my ambition and am now the proud owner of an Alaskan ...

Hi List,

go to www.supernerd.com.au/~scratch/Buxton.html

and www.supernerd.com.au/~scratch/jba.html

I got mine from Daispare in Milperra for $650.oo

Lots of fun fitting but well worth the work.

Cheers Leon, Hap & Ding

Do it,

I fitted powewr steering to my 91 Roza ( $650 ) and it was a different vehicle all together. Couldn't drive the Surf without it.

Cheers Leon.

I would have gone with you Rod but it's a bit far to drive.

Penzol make a Running In oil.

Just thinking.

Cheers leon

Years ago it was common to use a product called Redex Upper Cylinder Lubricant to do a quick decoke on petrol engines. Remove the plugs, give a good squirt of Redex, let it soak for a while and then start the motor and squirt large amounts of Redex into the carby.

It worked. Plenty of smoke and ...

2.4 2LTE Still goes well with good mileage. Starts first thing every morning with a bit of blue grey smoke. Recently fitted new Injectors 7 Glow plugs. Only fitted the Plugs because I was doing the Injectors. Also fitted an oil catch can or diffuser bottle between the rocker cover and inlet manafold ...

Reckon if you fit more than one Hiclone it may be possible to pump fuel back into the bowser.

And my Feroza will do the standing quarter in 6 seconds.

Hi Guys,

My Toyota Surf diesel is useing a fair amount of engine oil. About 1 litre per 5000k's. It didn't use much oil before I did a trip to Darwin & return a few months ago, days on end at steady engine speeds.

Before I went I changed the oil to a friction modified oil and my mechanic tells ...

My mistake,

Cheers Leon.

Brian, The main reason I'm doing the Glow Plugs other than the fact I'll have removed the induction tubing etc to replace the Injectors at the time is.

I live in Gladstone Qld and my Surf always starts within 1 second of the key turning. Always warm up here. I was also in PNG for 6 years and ...

Decided to replace Injectors & Glowplugs on my LN130 Surf with the 2TLE motor. Went to Toyota for a price.
Injectors at $452.40 each & Glowplugs at $41.35 each
No Inectors in stock in Australia, Glowplugs next day delivery.

Surfed the www and found www.hiflow.com.au

Rang their toll free ...

Fitted the new Vacuum pump and still got the problem. Managed to trace the leak and it seems to be in the smaller line which goes under the throttel body. Maybe this line goes to the EGR valve. I've blocked it off for the time being to see how it goes. Will see about fitting a extra vacumm tank to ...

I changed the gearbox & transfere case oil to Shell Helix Synthetic, not to sure of the grade.

Was a good move as it defnitly made the box easier to use and the changes sweeter.

It wasn't doing it yesterday, pulled the booster out and had it tested. OK.
Pulled the Alternater out and getting it serviced with a near new vacuum pump fitted.

It got soo every time I used the brake the low vacuum brake light came on. Bit of a worry driving like that.
