Ah the sound of the mountains. . Savage wild dogs with the sound of giggling school girls in the back ground . . .

Cheers Matty, I'll have a think, can you send us the price just out of interest sake. Also what should the resistance be without having to look it up. Visually when we did the comp test they looked fine.

Might have to see how costs go with this thing, just a shame I've sunk a few $ into this pump so far, not sure what I could recoup from it. Wouldn't want to try sell something that isn't quite right to some poor bugger. . . Maybe I try getting Andy to give it one more tweak, just ran out of time & motivation last time. What are your thoughts on compression, would you expect cold starts to be reasonable with those kinds of figures?

I would have to look as well mate. It might be 1 ohm but I would need to check to be sure. You can throw power on where the bus bar connects and touch the thread to an earth and if heats up real quick then it is likely ok.

You could get around $1000 for your pump and mention that it may require a rebuild. The compression is fine and yes cold starts would be fine at those figures. You are well within the specs. What gives it away as a pump issue is your issue starting when warm. You should not have to glow it once the temp gauge is showing the system has started warming up.

Yeah cool cheers heaps matty. Think I'll focus on getting this body sorted first then might see if I can get this pump tweaked one more time. Plan is to get it back together and running, then sort 4" Snorkel, airbox and then turbo. .

Still looking forward to having factory glow plugs. .

@ MB lots of dogs up there at the moment

[matfew]

bahahaha I was wondering when that video would hit youtube hahaha.

@Sir Roofy this was a prank we played on Darren after he went to bed. I was recording it, AB had his phone with dog noises and the creepy laugh at the end and MB was pulling on the swag like a dog might... was quite the effort put into it with 24hrs prior we set the story up and kept talking about dogs but think Darren enjoyed the bottle of JD he had as there wasnt much of a reaction haha.


Sorry @Rossco I didn't even see you tag me before about the loom. Wouldn't of offered much help was a while ago I done it now and I had COMPLETE DASH and EVERYTHING out of engine bay so was quite easy with nothing in the way.

[Rossco]

Yeah all good Matty, got it sorted was just a process of slowly working through it. Yeah ended up pulling it through from the engine bay into the cab. Fairly decent job pulling out the loom ! ! . .

You still got issues with that pump? Bloody hell. What did Diesel Tec say about it? Might be cheaper to remove it and take it somewhere else to get checked out. Theres a few mobs here in Melbourne that could look at it. AG Diesel and BSP are two off the top of my head. Even just ring them and have a chat. I'm not saying dont buy one of Mats pumps but its a lot of coin mate to be throwing away.

Yeah its not shocking but doesn't seem perfect either. Can't remember what Andy said last time kind of had enough but that stage. It's not that bad so when you test it in the shop it seems pretty good. I'll take it back again, just can be a pain beteen work and what not. Yeah it's a fair bit of dough down the drain to get another one. Bad timing, a couple of months later could have got onto one of Mattys. Looking at ABs & Winnie's they seem behave themselves very nice. .

@ Matty didn't sound like a wild dog either just letting MB know theres heaps of the buggers up top
