Hi everyone just joined today. My name is Geoff and I live on a remote Island up in the Gulf ( Groote) Not far to travel but great 4x4 country. I own a 2000 DX patrol which has a few issues. Driving home from the bush yesterday car started blowing black smoke and lost power. Car is not hot or using oil. When I started the car in the morning lots of white smoke. Any help would be great! I thought it might be the turbo so I started removing from spare car and cannot remove the banjo bolt for the oil supply that is under the turbo. What size socket is required to remove it. I have unplugged the sensor but can not remove from banjo bolt either. Fumbling around please help.
