just a thought , but , what exhaust system do you have , maybe the catalitic converter or muffeler may be partially blocked .

another longshot ! maybe it is running too cold . I have had experience with this a couple of times many years ago when going snow skiing . we ended up putting a plastic sheet across most of the radiator to make the car run warmer to get better performance until we came down to lower a altitude . I have also read somewhere about someone cooling the intake air to cold with a water to air intercooler so that the fuel mixture would not ignite properly . over here most cars run a little over half way on their temperature gauges . if the car does not run warm enough it will not run efficiently . it would be easy to check , just put some cardboard or plastic over the front of car and maybe also the intercooler intake just for a quick test . be careful not to run it too long or you will cook the motor .
I'd leave the ic for the minute. You want to get the air as dense as possible.
But I do agree with the radiator to bring up the engine temps..
Have you had it tuned properly??

It has always had a good running until now. But. I don´t give a shit now. Because I talk to the owmner of the 4,2 patrol and found out that it has a turbo. But the original non turbo injector pump is stil in the engine. So I need to find antoher injector pump when I get the truck. I´m going to wisit the guy in may and buy the truck. So mine will soon have a 4.2 againMaybe I´ll make a table from the RD28T to have in the living room

Ha, Ha Gisli,
I still had the original pump on my 4.2 and added a Turbo - it handled it OK , and so has another friend of mine ....
Mine did have the Aneroid Mod though, which isn't necessary for it to work, it just helped to prevent it belching black smoke all the time.

G'day Gisli,
Where in "East coast of Iceland" are you. I grew up as a countryman of yours, in Egilsstadir. Been an Aussie now for some 19 years. Still miss snow driving though, we don't get much of that here Downunder
Hi there. I live in Eskifjörður. 50km from EgilsstaðirBut one question for all the experts. Does the 4.2 non turbo have the same injector nozzles as the 4.2 turbo??

Yes they do. If you turbo your TD you will need to tune the fuel pump to suit
