Tb42e

[Bloodyaussie]

I thought I would start a thread on just TB42e's and post links of other members threads of the same model as many of us dont actually post in the title what car we have..

Maybe start conversation in regards to the TB42e's

Maybe other could start one specific to there cars eg TD's... winnie , Benny, AB.... and so on

Try not to fill it full of banter there is a thread for that.

If there are any other members that had there own thread on this model please let me know and I will add it....

To set your tps correctly you need to put the probes from your multimeter into the plug as shown and adjust till you get the reading of 0.4v and then adjust your idle to suit... there is a flat head screw near the back of the inlet manifold

Excellent idea! Probably a good opportunity for people to put up some technical specs to help people with tuning and what not also. BA was it you that also serviced your fan clutch recently? If so how did it go? Mine is working like a champ now.

[Bloodyaussie]

Yes I did but have not fitted it... it is in the back as a spare.

The mod worked well.. maybe you should post up those picks you took.. I will see if I took some also.

I never took any pics unfortunately, but this shows where I drilled into, tapped and used a couple of screws to hold the fluid in. I also used a strong epoxy resin called Hysol on the heads of the screw to stop any seepage. Used gravity and time to drain the old fluid(took ages) and also an air compressor to help blow it out. I had some 60k silicon fluid from my rc car lying around, and with a syringe was able to inject into the hub. Works much better.

you put the multimeter into what plug mate ?..the picture didn't come up .....I am assuming the plug that goes onto the tps ?..do you take it off the tps to do that ?

[Bloodyaussie]

I have fixed the photo showing where to check voltage on the tps... 0.4v and the higher you go the richer it gets. Mine was set to 0.49v and was too rich

Tb42e injector part number is JS21-1. Searching this on eBay can sometimes come up with brand new injectors(international seller) for very very cheap compared to the stock in Australia($200 per injector!!!). Autobarn and such ask even more (over $300 per injector!!!!!).

The site listed above recondition these injectors in the US at $35 each and don't require exchange units. Postage is about 35-40 from memory so in total about $250 for 6 injectors completely reconditioned delivered to your door.
Very much worth it and I've used the guys listed above and my patrol returns great fuel economy despite being a petrol patrol...
