Awe I think I gambled and lost... <img alt=":(" src="\images\46081\9dbf1b09-8fc4-4c76-9a58-de18ffb8fde6.gif" title="Sad"/>... I got it started and I have to have my foot on the gas to get it going. Once running it's a dog and knocks and smells like diesel and smokes something fierce. When I take my ...

Hi Geeves,

Yesw I used the primer till it was stiff. And it does push diesel through to the other side. Which injector line should I crack first?

Ok... new engine I'm taking a chance on installed! That didn't take long lol. EGR delete too. How the heck do I prime the diesel system? I used the lift pump and cranked it for a bit but nothing is coming out the back of the pump. I made sure the solendoid is getting 12V and can hear it click. I ...

Ah yup. I think mine is just for petrol. I'll try and track one down. I should be able to do it with the engine out and just turning it over by hand eh? I was doing that today after pressure washing it and then putting diesel in the cylinders to line the inside with diesel and it was making a smokey ...

Ah too right! I'll have to find the adapter for my compression guage though. Thanks man I would have over looked that!

Cool cool. At the moment rad is out and it's pretty empty in there. I was thinking remove the cam belt, as I'm going to change it, then pull the followers out the top? Or is that not how it works. I thought take them out the top, then remove cam belt and pull the cam out the front and inspect. I don ...

Choice man, yeah I was thinking of getting a set of pushrods from ebay but it'll take a while. I haven't checked the followers, thought they were hydrolic lifters but guess I'll see when I pop them out <img alt=":)" src="\images\45696\64e54a49-1f0f-427a-9ac7-eb56f563acb5.gif" title="Smile"/> I have ...

Ah cool bro, I just hit you up on trademe Thanks for letting me know. I might just have to sell a bunch of stuff and get a new head package at this point. Do you have 4 pushrods I could grab for cheap?

Wow 25lbs boost! I just want a good ride for my wife as she's losing her company car when on maternity leave <img alt=":P" src="\images\45686\8eab19a7-37ff-48ee-9ca7-639830ecc2d2.gif" title="Razz"/> I'll have a trawl of the forums. Just thinking the head pic below looks pretty similar... Bit if the ...
