Bruce, it's a small town, the next one is 90 minutes drive away, and there's lots of pig shooters with big guns out here.

I'm best to sell it legit. I'll fix it if it's not too expensive, and sell it to a keen local, or I'll fark it off at a reduced price.

On the up side, is that I know lots of fitters willing to work on week ends for rum.

Surely there's a kit you can put through them?.

PS yes I did search

send a PM to Andy at dieseltec

Speaking form experience, everything on the 2.8 is expensive........

There is a mob in Melbourne which is probably no good to you who overhaul injector pumps called Marrasi & Williams but thought I would telll you anyway.

How much is $$hit loads?

You could probably pick up a second hand one from someone doing a 2.8 - 4.2 conversion. Keep an eye out on Egay.

$2300 new? Where from?

yeh around that including fitting, thats mates rates on fitting and trade price for pump. just a place up here in brissy

I'm in Brisbane and mine had a small leak. I was quoted $900 if i took the pump off myself , which is a very easy job on a 2.8 . Mine has no cable going to the pump just wires. GU. It can be done cheap. I was told to also do the timing belt while the jobs being done...

I would just knock some off the price and sell letting the new owner know about it . When i bought mine it was leaking , no one told me i had to find out the hard way , but sh*t happens , i am happy with the car. It passed a road worthy when i got it, because it wasn't dripping on the ground ..lol any way hope this helps

Barnsey wrote:Injector pump, is what I meant.

Had a mate (fitter) look at it yesterday. It's leaking fuel from the front side.

There's a pump specialist in town that mainly does heavy diesel jobs (cat, etc) who'll do the job at "mates rates".

It was suggested that I could leave it go, (since I'm selling the car) but the rest of the car is immaculate, and I'd like it gone a t a good price, with no faults. As stated before, I have to LIVE in this town.

I would strongly suggest that you have it removed and resealed and tested and it should not cost you much more than $1300 if its only a reseal and test.

The prices you are being qouted are for a total rebuild with new parts of which it may not require,if its running/starting fine then i see no reason why it would be any more.

Youre choice but that is what i would do and if it tests up fine then there is no recall on you at all.

i got quoted 8k just for the pump no labour from nissan, wankers! they also tried to sell me a fuse for $45.
you can get a quick fix kit from nissan for about $100 which will last about a month but i would trade it in.

What does this kit do? What does it include?

Cheers

On my other Patrol it had a leak and it was a 2 bolt plate on the side of the pump .
E asy as to undo and replace with a seal from nissan for $13 .

It looked bad at first but turned out to be an easy fix.

Sounds similar to the advance plate/seal I had put on my GU

Going to miss the old beast

What Vintage was it, mods etc and how much did you get for it if not a rude question? Just curious as thinking about selling mine for a TD42 (Bogged is trying to convince me that I want one).
