Winnies 747 TD42 GQ

[Winnie]

I will blank off the vac pump and run my GQ alternator. I've got everything disconnected from the engine now and just need to borrow a crane and I can get the engine out this weekend. Looking forward to it and will take it as a good opportunity to give the engine bay a good scrubbing too.

Thats awesome mate, freshest TD42T in Moe :)


Haha classic lol. .

Need to take off the fan too but that's easy. Will try and get my new pump in soon so can use the timing kit. . . Might need to run us through it MudRunnerTD & matfew when i get to it, had a look at it and looks like the wackiest tool I've ever seen, serious case of WTF . .

hahaha! Indeed! we sat there and thought WTF! took a bit of nutting out and Matty broke the code. Stupid thing. Worked well once it was figured out though.

Well then by the time we use it on mine we should be able to get it right!

Consider redoing random wiring and relocating thevac vessel to rhe other side. I couldnt believe the change in my clutch after moving the vac vessel. Moving the fuel primer back over to the drivers side is a winner too.

Wondering what could cause this carbon build-up and whether that could have contributed? Other than that it doesn't look like any contamination.
When I originally put the 12mm pump on I drove it untuned for a couple hundred km unknowingly nearly 900nm torque, I wonder if I bent a rod then and it has finally grabbed?

Guessing never know exactly but thinking anything past 700nm on silvertop rods is pushing it, all it would take is one exposure to the level of force to bend one then ticking time bomb. Having torque at low revs means more force through components per cycle too.

ill ask at the local supplier if they do high temp stuff. may be better cutting the reverse logo(as in the borders of the letters) then you spray painting high temp paint onto it?

i can send down the rattle gun if you like?

actually ask AB if hell pick it up on the way to sprocks bucks, are you going to that? if you can sort it out you can borrow it then, then return it when it works?

Why do you want to relocate though?

If I was you I would get a new o ring, install pump and block vac outlet for now and use old alternator vac and later on run a line or magically find oem line for double vac. I'm running double vac and it's definitely a bonus!

Gonna be very easy to run a vac hose from the timing case mounted pump there, and there are already solid vac hoses going across the firewall so I will just go from the alternator to one of those solid hoses and from the other end of that to the canister.

Yeah ok, it's just Winnie is still using his Alt vac too so he still has to run that to the firewall with rubber hose and across the firewall hard pipes to rubber hose junction along with a custom pipe from T engine to the new cannister location which no doubt he'll use rubber hose too so yes huge improvement with double Vac but very long lengths of rubber hose that's all.

This is all minor though so all good. That's why for Winne's double Vac set up he should leave it all as is IMHO, block off T vac pump for now until he finds OEM line but all good, both will work fine.

I don't suppose anybody knows what thread size the blue circle is do they? I need to get a plug for it but nothing I have fits it to get the thread matched. It must be imperial?

I would be surprised if its not metric. A fine pitch form at a guess. What approx. size is it? From there head down to the 'bolt guy' and pick up a couple of samples to try. Why do you think It is imperial?

Is the hole a port or a mount hole? It could be AN if for a flow port perhaps? - and this is a US imperial.

OK< I know standard pitch is 12 x 1.75, then fine pitches at 1.5 and 1.25, kind of look a bit like UNF.

I will have a look in my bolt rack as well and bring down a couple on Saturday, just in case.

[Winnie]

Thanks guys. Got a message from Nissan newby and he reckons it's M12x1.5mm
I will grab one on Wednesday now and hope it is right but it does sound good.
Had issues at Enzed this morning, the reckon M10x1.5mm is very unusual and they have had to order stuff in so I am hoping it is all here before the weekend.

Winnie, maybe a typo but M10 x 1.5P is a standard metric coarse thread pitch, about as rare as politicians lies! M12 x 1.5 is equally as common as a metric fine pitch, so no idea why they told you that. It might be a rare liquid fitting though, however they have every adapter under the sun avail t them, again should not be an issue.

Hey as an option, maybe too late, Enzed do sell a light blue hose with barb fittings that dont need any crimping or clamps. You cut the hose and push then fitting into the hose. They have to be cut off with a stanley knife to get them apart. They are widely used in the mobile construction/mining game. I used this system on my hydraulic winch and it is so simple, no leaks at 3000psi and 90 degC, think they are rated at 300degC from memory.

Another quality write up by Darren!
To be honest I was too depressed to comment last night, we took it for a drive and the brand new clutch slipped. We disconnected the slave cylinder and drove with no hydraulics so that we could 100% rule that system out.
The guys say to me, don't stress mate it just needs to bed into the new flywheel surface. Was pretty hard not to be upset by it though really.
Well anyway I thought it was worth a try, so I did a 100km trip to Walhalla and back today, made sure I was changing gear as much as I could to bed in the flywheel.
On the way back I gave it a quick test and it held perfectly in 4th gear and a small amount of slip in 5th so it is coming good! Another few 100 kms and it should be all perfect!
I am so stoked with it now and could not have done it without everybody's help, especially to Darren, Matt, Rossco and Jonno. These guys went absolutely above and beyond, drove down to my place 2 weekends in a row to help me out.
Seriously bloody good true blue Aussie blokes! You guys are the best!

Quote snipped from Cape Jaffa trip thread...

MB noticed a decent oil leak coming from Winnie's car on the way home. Turned out it was just the oil sender T piece but it ended up snapping in the block, thank god easy out got it out and back on the road within 30 minutes.

Been thinking about this and previously I would have thought that this oil leak would have shown on the pressure gauge.
MB commented that due to the reduced capacity the oil would have started to get hot and if an oil temp gauge was installed then it would have been noticed.
I've found a spot for a twin gauge so will get a water temp/oil temp gauge like this one pictured.

Does anybody have any experience with external oil coolers on their TD42? It's been on my mind a bit lately and I've been thinking about how PeeBee and MB have had great success on their Chevy 6.5 diesel's with external oil coolers.
We all know that the modified TD42s get warm and when we were towing on this trip I had so much power to use but couldn't put my foot down due to fear of doing long term damage from getting hot.

You wicked beast - you are tempting me I reckon! The flares look great. My concern is mostly the cracking of the paint when you bend the guard - how did that work out for you? The other thing is my terminal cruising rpm as the chevs can easily bog down and produce even crappier economy than when running at lower revs - not that i am too worried about economy mind you. Its kind of a natural progression I reckon.

[QUOTE=Winnie;769194]Radiator would overflow but not suck back in. So would overflow the overflow bottle but I would top it up each time. Thought it was the radiator cap.
Very minor rear main seal leak.
Other than that it has never ran better.

Winnie
Just reading through your thread and about your engine demo
Where you mention the above experience with the coolant, we had a similar experience and just by luck I unscrewed the overflow bottle cap and looked at how it worked. I discovered that the hose from the radiator was connected to the wrong side of the cap and could never suck coolant back in as the engine cooled.
If you remove and have a look at the cap you will see what I mean.
Fortunately we never demoed our engine.

Cheers
