yeah, I'd go around 10cm from the exhaust flange on the dump. I think 485°c was the magic number that no one liked to exceed.

Leave your turbo if it spins freely and does not contact the housing at all. It will have some radial runout (up and down/side to side) it should not thrust backwards or forwards enough to contact the housing. Aluminum in your oil filter and your mechanic says turbo???? get a new mechanic...

assemble the new seals into position with a little grease to help out. Fit your new seal to the top plate and lube it up a little before you install the shaft/spring keeper assembly into the fulcrum arm/lever and then lower the top plate over the throttle shaft and slip a finger under to help...

kit part number kit consists of a load screw o ring (smaller of the two) a throttle shaft oring a top plate seal and 2 copper washers inside the top of the pump... when you remove the top cover after removing the 4 screws, lift the top a little and push down on the throttle shaft to help it...

so you'll see my timing mark on the shaft, noted by the horizontal red line, the shaft is splined as is the throttle lever arm, so you cant go too far wrong. Next is the exposed, cleaned top of the injector pump. I scribed a line along the load screw just to help me out if I needed it with...

so to help out, also take note of the direction of the flat blade slot, just for a quick reference adjustment With the top return spring mount, it is keyed to the throttle lever arm so dont stress too much about it, just make sure you give it some spring preload at assembly. I marked mine based...

fuel load screw has to be uncovered (if yours is virgin) and measure the depth to the nut with a vernier. This will help you reset the load screw at assembly time

BEFORE YOU START... go grab some cheap cans of degreaser and degrease the whole side of the engine bay. use a high pressure cleaner to help you out. make sure you get the top of the pump nice and clean. so here is the injector pump in the open. I removed the intake manifold to make access much...

Hi all, so the other day i decided to give the big Nav some love... cleaned the interior, vacuumed, cleaned glass and dash (1st time since owning).. anyway to say thanks, the very next day the injector pump began to leak... big smell of diesel driving to work and a puddle underneath after...

mine does the same thing every now and again, where it will start in the morning and then shutdown... give it a few pumps on the filter housing and she's good to go for the rest of the day.. BAD TIMES... noticed a strong diesel smell today on the way to work... noticed a few drips on the floor...

Just bought a red-arc smart solenoid for dual battery setup.. $80.. pretty happy with that. Scored some 245 BFG AT's 95% for $500 F&B.. she's a new mobile now. Any idea how to get rid of that horrible creak from the front end (going up kerbs etc)... cheers ALSO... hiring out big nav nav for...

new rear springs, shocks, greaseable shackles and pins, bushes and U bolts all installed today. $466 for the lot (parts only) took me about 2 hours to install. Pretty happy with the results, the rear sits up quite high now.. So the torsion bars are going to go +1 spline to pull the front up too.

your old QD exh mani.. so i can use it to jig up some steam bends and flanges. unless you have a spare td27 turbo mani??

Dion, want to flick your old mani??

Move it forward to get some exhaust space behind it so its not a straight up 90 deg bend at the firewall.

interested in a qd manifold if the price was right and if the turbo could be moved forward a few inches..

Havent they just released their Hella Rallye 4000 "knock off versions" about $235+ gst for compacts in HID? I am looking at compact 4000's with the HID kits, but i seem to be able to get the 9" 4000's cheaper, go figure... cheers.

we ran a whole fleet of these for field service utes (and a few patrols) they are bullet proof. mine has done 274000 (not the 230 something i thought at first glance) and you turn the key, it glows for about 3-4 seconds and starts on the second-third rotation.

linky link for the kit big fella?? cheers

service history is sketchy at best.. to be poilte to the previous owners..
