    veg oil source

    Injector union nut

    They haven't got any land rovers in around here. What a pain in the arse. I have even tried a local garage and they looked at me like I have got 2 heads.

    Injector union nut

    I though you could get just the nut to flare on myself like for brake pipe unions

    Injector union nut

    Does anyone know where I can get one of these from. I shredded the thread off the nut. I can't find a new one anywhere, I have searched for hours on the net with no luck and know one is breaking around here. Cheers

    What seal has gone

    Right, a little update. After not touching my engine for nearly 2 weeks now and after many discussions with army mechanics and land rover 'specialists' at Keith gott, we have come to the conclusion that the only thing it could now be is the valve guides OR something else to do with the head...

    200 tdi engine rebuild

    I just thought about taking it to 2.8 as the Isuzu 2.8 is a popular engine for challenge trucks. But to be fair I don't think I can be arsed with it, I will just stick to 2.5

I kind of jumped to the conclusion that it was piston rings because I knew the head was going to have to come off to fix the cause, weather it was bottom end or head related. Then I saw that the pistons where in pretty bad condition and I...
