    Maximum Suggested Sustained RPM's for 12HT

    3000rpm should be no problem for hours on end. My Hilux does 3700rpm for as long as I'm on the highway, with quite a bit of that time at WOT (4 speed gearbox). 197,000km and nothing blown up yet. Same deal with my uncle's 2H powered HJ47 with 4 speed. It does 3400rpm all day with no issues...

    Mobil Delvac 1 5-40, fuly sinthetic and still Jaso DH-1

    Interesting, thanks for the link. I will try to get a price on this compared to Delvac MX 15w40 mineral oil. Personally I would still change the oil after 5000km with any oil.

    Feasible to Turbo a 2L 2.4 Toyota Diesel?

    Aftermarket turbo kits for these engines are common. You have to be more careful watching EGTs and coolant temps of course. The 2L heads seem to be stronger than the 2LII and 3L heads, but I have no evidence to back this up. I prefer to keep mine NA though.

    Help reviving 2lt

    This is what I'm thinking. My Hilux behaved the same way when the fuel lines were almost completely blocked from lack of use over a winter a few years ago.

    Help reviving 2lt

    Easier just to disconnect the lines from the injectors?

    Help reviving 2lt

    That won't help if there is air in the lines to the injectors.

    1hz bubbling coolant overflow

    I do this, but I find it works better if the engine is not always idling, but running up to say 2000 rpm occasionally. Also squeeze the radiator hoses a few times (careful not to get near the rotating fan, belts, or anything hot). It also works better if you park on a slope with the radiator cap...

    1hz bubbling coolant overflow

    If you haven't bled the system since installing the radiator, then why did you attempt to run/drive it at all?

    1hz bubbling coolant overflow

    Sounds to me like it just has air in the system. Try bleeding the system again and see if that helps.

    1986 2.4l diesel

    Most people have no problems with them. Some people on here do, but 99% of them hold together for 300,000km+ They did power LJ73s from the factory, etc. I don't know what an FJ40 weighs, but my Hilux is 1600kg with the same engine and it goes well.

    Can I tow with a HJ60 with 2H Diesel?

    It'll do it just fine. I've towed more than that with a 2.4 litre 2L NA Hilux. It might not be fast, but you don't want to go faster than the speed limit when towing anyway.

    CT26 How to make it spool at lower rpm?

    If it's taking until 3000 rpm to get full boost on an engine which only revs to 4000 or so, and it's the stock turbo, then I think you either have a blockage somewhere, or the compressor or turbine is not working as it should.

    Brake Drum questions ?? duh ??

    Are there any rear disc conversions that use Toyota calipers/pads/rotors etc?

    CT26 How to make it spool at lower rpm?

    Yeah, this is my point. It won't start to build boost sooner, though it will reach more useful boost levels sooner.

    It's quite common in Australia to swap in the GM 3.8 V6, as they were sold in Holden Commodores here. Try these links: Hilux Commodore V6 ENGINE CONVERSION OPTIONS FOR

    1hd-ft turbo upgrade *pics*

    I have to ask. Why upgrade the turbo when it involves modifying the engine mount in order to keep the stock exhaust manifold, which flows very poorly? A custom exhaust manifold which places the turbo in a better position would have been a MUCH better solution, you would have gained quite a bit...

    CT26 How to make it spool at lower rpm?

    Not sure if anyone has already mentioned this, but on other turbocharged engines I have experience with, the wastegates start to leak boost past them when any boost pressure is achieved. By using a manual boost controller, the wastegate does not see any boost pressure until the manual boost...
