Hi Toha, yes you can do that and I see you found the other post about the conversion and things needed, etc.

I have to ask though why are you swapping to to TB42....Normally people are after the TD42 not the other way around?

It would be easier and you may even make some money out of selling the diesel and buying a petrol. There are lots of petrol/gas patrols for sale but not many diesels.

Hello AB, thanks for your reply 1 of the big reason is diesel engine makes too much noise,,, i have no idea all the diesel engine makes noise or just mine makes noise. well i i havnt decide yet, i will make my decision based on you guys valuable advice. as because i dont know much about this 2 engine. below i am going to put some condition of my present engine
1. making lots of smoke.
2.when i turn off the engine..still on unless i pull the choak.
3.steering wooble.
4.its a power steering but steering too jam.
5,Ac compresser makes noise.
6. vehicle is not fast as it supposed to be.
after read above condition plz give me advice what should i do.. is there any way to reduce the diesel engine noise. thanks AB

Probably easier to sell your entire car and with the cash you get buy a petrol version as the diesel sells for alot more than a petrol and as some of your problems seem to not be related to the engine then it'll be the cheaper option just my 2cents
