G'day all,

Can anyone offer any advice regards towing with an auto?

I'm sure this has been covered many times, but many thanks if anyone has any tips.

Re: towing - auto - hold/power button/...

donk all back together and running.

crank pulley bolt was easy to get off, didn't need a breaker bar.

used a harmonic balancer puller ($26 at repco) attached via M6 bolts into the 2 threaded...

thanks Cos.

g'day legends,

I'm in the process of replacing the timing belt and as per the diagram in the manual it shows to use a puller to remove the crank pulley.

If anyone has done this job lately did...

G'day all,

I have an iPad with hema, a GNS5870 external GPS receiver and it all works well. The hema app does what it says it does.

GNS GPS receiver works bloody well,

Hema maps show you...

G'day legends,

Pros,

And in particular the liquid-moly engine oil...

g'day

has anyone tried rebuilding a rd28ti starter motor? can you get a kit for this?

cheers in advance. :blowup:

not fancy but works.:1087:

the clipper battery monitor was found on ebay but check out amazon UK 1st. The screen is a little big but it's a bloody good unit for the price (so far). The Engel is...

cheers for dipping your hat. Weight and cost is what it is all about, I haven't bothered to weigh it but believe me it's as light, cheap and strong as I could get it using ply. The bits of materiel...

shop around mate, Ferret is right 5k to rebuild a pissy little injector pump is total bull, though I kind of agree with the dust free bit though.
I agree too with the bosch suggestion, try them 1st...

and remember to replace the supply hose before start up

actually, normally I make sure the beer supply is sorted 1st

here is how I do it, diesel fitters might cringe but who cares.

1: cut the top off a drink can or plastic bottle to make a container.
2: remove the rubber return fuel line off the metal pipe and...

mate, if your working on a boat off Gladstone don't worry about the hose just buy a new patrol :)

g'day Andy,
top notch forum.

seem to have a problem, I have to re-log on every time I post anything now.
I log on, have a look around and when I try to post anything it tells me I'm not logged...

nup, not yet, thats what the blue tape is for to tell my missus to stop pulling or it's going to end up on your toes. Would be easy to put some kind of stopper there, just haven't done it yet.

after noticing an oily smudge on the pipe work for the after-cooler where the rubber pipe fits over, I thought oh shit my turbo is on the way out and then had a look for a service kit on ebay. I...

phosphoric acid is pretty harsh, I would be careful and make sure you do some homework before you use it, but an interesting suggestion

well, it probably would have taken a week of after work garage time, a few hours of picking up bits and pieces and scratching my head,

but,

double that when you add time taken up by your 3yr...

I'm going to pull the cover off mine next week to have a look, pretty sure it will look similar.

am thinking also about a boost and egt gauge, have you seen the gauge mounting panels that replace the pillar trim on the drivers side, they are on ebay?
