Finished the job this weekend. Not too difficult. Took me about 6 hours from start to finish. Surprisingly the water pump from Onlineautoparts has a metal impeller and looks and feels as good as the Toyota OEM one. The kit came with a new tensioner pully, spring, camshaft seal, timing belt, new...

FYI. I ended up getting my parts from www.onlineautoparts.com.au. High quality parts at about 1/3 of any price I could find in N.A.

Where did you get the parts from? I'm in Calgary and have to replace my water pump. Thought I'd do the timing belt and idler pulley at the same time but can't find parts locally.

Cooler lines are OK. The lines that got crushed were bolted to the floorpan. I won't worry about those till the spring. Thanks for the head's up about GS. I'll give them a call tomorrow. Thanks, Kelvin

Oh yes, It's definitely on the tranny. It's pissing tranny fluid when you start it up. I just did some surfing looking for a pic of the tranny showing the part but I came up empty. What about locking the diff to drive it as a 2 wheel drive while I wait for the driveshaft to be rebuilt? Any...

1994 HDJ81 Diesel RHD. The shudder I thought was coming from my transmission was not. It turns out that the u-joint between the transfer case and front drive shaft was failing. It finally let go and took out a sensor on the right side of the transmission. It also crushed 2 lines that run...

What did you use for an adapter from the 10mm intake from the ACSD port to the 5/8 input on the heater? I couldn't find any plumbing parts at the Auto store to make this fit. Kel

It was -32 in Calgary this morning. Took me 20 minutes and a propane heater to get the beast fired up so it looks like I'm installing the circulating heater sooner than I thought. Do you have pictures of your set-up? What's the size of the ACSD line and what's the size of the Y adapter to fit...

Well it's easy enough to replace now. Where did you source the new O ring from? What size is it? I may just go get one and do it anyway. Kel

This is what I'm talking about. Is it a rear diff breather? https://forum.ih8mud.com/diesel-tech-24-volts-systems/424622-what-part-what-does-do-hdj81.html Kelvin Sorry I had the wrong URL in there. Had to change it. The other URL has an exploded view of the tank - in Russian but the vent is...

The more I think about it, that may have a check valve on it and only vent out. I.E. release pressure built up within the tank, not vice versa. Or not. Either way I believe it does have a check valve. The question is - does it release pressure or vacuum?

I think there's one that vents into your rear axle. I'd go take a look but it's -29 Celsius out there right now. :beer: Kelvin

My apologies. I missed the part about the leaky primer. Definitely get that fixed. But that could also be a symptom of a stopped up vent in the tank. If the IP is sucking really hard to get fuel it will start to suck air from any leaks as well. Nature abhors a vacuum. Kelvin

Can anyone answer his question about the vacuum in the tank? Is that OK? I would fix that before chasing other ghosts. I don't think that I've EVER had a vacuum in my tank. Kelvin
