Introduction
Hi
Please allow me to introduce myself.
my name is Phil and I am from the A.C.T. I am an old retired electrician who is trying to spend my kids inheritance on camping, traveling and spoiling my grand kids rotten.
I drive a 2001 GU ZD30 automatic ST wagon. Unmodified except for dieselgas injection. Bought 2nd hand in 2003 with 70,000 kms. Now has 202,000 kms on the clock.
No troubles, totally reliable until the last few weeks, Fitted new radiator as top tank hose coupling nearly failed and now truck is staling, sometimes restarting sometimes not until next morning or sometimes within a few minutes or so.
Love the Patrol as it goes anywhere within reason with no fuss and a pleasure to drive.
Cheers
Phil

Hi Phil
I'm new to the forum and fairly new to living in Canberra (moved down from the Gold Coast 2 yrs ago)
I used to be an electrical fitter many years ago.
That stalling must be a pain on the GU... Have any of the members been able to help?
I know a pretty decent mechanic in Woden if that helps you. He sorted out some issues on my 1990 petrol Maverick (not sure how much he works on diesels tho)
Cheers
Mike
