Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Hi i have an hj47
just gave the old girl an oil change + filter and now in the morning
on start up no oil pressure engine will run for 3sec and stop
restart second time have oil pressure all is ok
replace oil and filter and same problem if as the oil is draining out of the oil filter over night never has this prob before
any idea what wrong

just got and toyota filter to day will try that on the weekend

the two filter i use were valvoline and rycoh

What sort/weight of oil??

How old/worn is the engine?

castrol 15 w 40

260,000k
engine running fine

I used to run Penrite diesel(25/60) in the 2H, & didnt have a prob except in very cold mornings. 10deg & lower.

i try the new filter on the weekend
if no good will try Penrite diesel(25/60

very cold mornings. 10deg & lower.

HaHaHa, we are lucky to get a temperature over 10deg down here in Tassie.

Very cold morning for us are around 2 or 3 deg.

Hey, cmon. That was when I was in Townsville, and that was bloody freezing

does the filter on the 2H point up or down? if the top of the filter points up, did you get a filter with an anti-drainback valve?

have you checked your running oil pressure to make sure it is up to spec?

I'd go the penrite HPR premium diesel oil, it is pretty good, if I bit thick. also go the factory oil filter, the toyota filters are tops.

cheers

common for toyota diesels

my 2h has always stalled first go and then runs fine, so has my 3B, just give it about 800-1000rpm (idle it up a bit) for a few seconds right when you start it and she'll not stall and be fine!!

show us pics of your truck!!

thanks for the info guys fitted the toyota filter and all ok now
