In search of Intercooler hood scoop.

Hello, I'm in need of a hood scoop for a second generation Trooper for a project of my own, and a friend needs one for a first gen Trooper. The catch is we would need them shipped to the US, don't know if that would be expensive or not. PayPal would suit us for payment.

Re: 4JB1 Repair Questions

No real update yet, I pulled the main bearing caps, and the bearings there look pretty good.<br/><br/>Another question here, what is the second solenoid on the injector pump for? The one with the green rubber cover... Photo attached.<br/><br/><img alt="Image" src="http://i916.photobucket.com/albums ...

Here it is, with the back plate from the engine lying on top to make sure it fits.

Re: 4JB1 Repair Questions

It is going to be bolted to the original MUA 5 speed manual. I managed to score the front housing for a diesel transmission, brand new on Ebay in the USA. Why in the states I don't know, but it was there and I managed to get it for $200 US. It just got here last night.

Re: 4JB1 Repair Questions

Thanks. I hope to start the disassembly tomorrow. I can get a rebuild kit locally for a pretty good price. I will probably need to order a set of headbolts from Australia, as I can't find them here. They are in good shape, but I bent two, foolishly using them to attach a chain to hoist the engine.

You know, I never thought of that! I wondered how the crosshatching could be so clearly visible, and yet have so much wear at the top.

No way to measure, but enough to easily feel with a finger.
