good. i might give them a ring next week.
thanks will definitely carry a water bottle, how will water go on the heads though, hope they won't crack.
the link is quite interesting, thanks. mine runs good when started but will that cause no start when hot.
this has a mechanical lift pump on RH front of block. appears to be working ok.
Please expand PMD, do you mean injector pump is mechanical. yes it is a brunswick conv.
Mine is N/A, it is fine when running, just cranks & won't fire when hot, as soon as it cools cranks a few times & starts. i might try to change the filters & will check the lift pump.
Hi & welcome to you & bernas, i had an issue once with a burnt exhaust valve could also be just sticky. if you hold a piece of paper on the exhaust tail it should blow away constantly, if it sucks...
Hi all, over the last few months my 6.5 chevy diesel has been struggling to start when hot. 1st thing in the morning it fires up straight away or even after standing for around 20 to 30 mins, but if...
G'day AB, not sure if this is the right page, I haven't been on here in ages, I don't have a patrol :frown:, but i do have a cruiser shorty with a 6.5 chevy :biggrin: thanks for the birthday wishes...
yea Roofy, work (mostly at home) & grand kids i don't seem to have much time. just have to make time i guess.
Thanks for the birthday wishes nissanpatrol.
Cheers, Colin
Nice job, looks very neat.
G'day, I don't go on here very often, & even less when I'm at work (FIFO).
no problem starting when hot, I rang Brunswick & the engine was a rebuild, sold to the last owner & converted by himself....
I have no idea mate I will have to get hold of the previous owner.
Conversion was done in 2005 by Brunswick.
Wow ok, I might do that.
I changed the air & fuel filters yesterday, no change.
is it possible the governor weights in the injector pump are sticking.
Yip looking like injectors, could also be filter as it doesn't seem to have the power i expected especially at higher revs under acceleration.
Thanks mate.
Right, I checked all the lines, all ok, there was 1off return line that was loose so i snipped a bit off & re-fitted it, made no difference. i checked all the glow plugs with multi meter, & there...
Thanks mate, I'll check all the lines. Could be that it also needs an injector service.
yea it is mechanical pump, conversion was done 2005. yea it also has a lift pump.
Hullo all, I have been a member for a while now, my son & I joined together when he bought his patrol. I have now bought a 4x4 as well, unfortunately not a patrol :), a short wheel wheel base cruiser...
Hullo Eva.
Hey Kevin Ryan. Who had to snatch a Troll out..... You in my cruiser :)
