Hi guys looking for some help from the brains trust on this one I blew a hose today at r/h rear of block on a tb45 and it looks like a real pain to change and would you suggest changing all hoses at same time to be safe and how long if anyone has done it before
Thanks
Get out and get it dirty
Not a bad idea. Keep any old hoses and store them in your rear quarter panel for just incase.
Thanks I'm hoping it is hose and not fitting that comes out of block cracked as I got it home as quick as I could but gauge was pretty hot and she was pinging bad and idle was high so I'm hoping I haven't cooked it

I wouldn't have taken that risk if I'm you. The probablity of cooking the head is not worth that risk.Quote:

Better off towing the troll.
Yeah, that's what I did last time. I keep the old ones as backups.Quote:

Anyone know what it should be cold I think I read .35mm or similar

Thank god all done now and runs good and doesn't get hot but we will see in next few kms I spose if it does or not
Anyone know valve adjustment as tappets are a little noisy

Use the Patrol manual mate. The specs should be there. Mine's got lifters, so no need for that.Quote:

You will need a feeler gauge as well. Buy a one from Bursons or SuperDear Auto. It costs just few dollars. You can download both the Haynes manual & the factory manual for free from here, but you got the CD anyway.Quote:
