Series 3 2.25 Diesel Timing Tool 605863

There's a lot of debate about timing a Series 3 2.25 Diesel engine – whether special tools are essential or if experience can suffice. While I've successfully timed Land Rover fuel pumps manually, I prefer to have the right tools for the job.

Over the Christmas break, I decided to design a 3D-printable timing tool. If you're interested, I've attached the files.

You can print the tool using your preferred filament. I used PLA, but I plan to reprint it in PETG soon.

I'd love to hear about your experiences with the tool – successes, failures, and any feedback you have."

You also need a couple of 6mm bolts as I designed the parts separately and then put them together

PLEASE DO NOT SELL THIS BUT IT IS FREE TO USE FOR ANYONE WHO IT HELPS.


Many Thanks
Richard

Nice one, I'd never have a 2286 diesel again, but perhaps if mine had been timed right I mightn't feel that way....

Well done Sir !
I've never actually used one myself (I just tune the pump timing by ear), but that is certainly a cost effective solution to a difficult problem
