I think the exchange rate is .95, so $950 US. As for shipping, it can certainly be done, physically, but you will need to sort out your customs requirements. I know parts coming north are not dutied if domestic or over a very few years of age. I think NAFTA took care of that. Email me if...

I didn't think to do them before pulling it out. Not sure what to tell you, beyond that. I can say that with a 15-20 sec glow, it fires immediately. After it starts, a 2-3 second pulse with the glow switch, once or twice and it purrs.

B diesel and tranny/tcase I have a great running B diesel, 4 speed and transfer case (still connected) for sale. All records of servicing and its life back to the day it was born. I have a short video...

Thanks guys. I appreciate the suggestions and will begin my investigations, based on your comments. Any other ideas will also be entertained!

Thanks. (I think :-) If that is the case how can I verify it and can it be fixed without pulling the head apart?

I just transplanted a 1982 3b into my 40 series. 330000km. Seems to power along and run well. However, I hear and feel a thumping in the intake hose in time with the firing of each cylinder. It seems to puff air out even as it draws it in. My exhaust is the stock sizing for the B engine...

Guess I should have looked at the date of that post! Glad you found one.

re your 40 series shopping list I'm new to the forum, but since Enigma is looking for a gas tank, I thought I'd pipe up. I have an under the seat tank from a 73 fj40 in apparently good shape. (It has been stored for a while, so may have accumulated a few flakes inside) I also have a roll bar...

Another question on 24 v BJ40 All wires and taps in this buggy are 24 volts, based on two 12 volt batteries in series, except for the headlights. They don't pull 12v off the one side of the ps battery, as that causes all sorts of problems with uneven charging etc. How is it done? Can I...

I have a 79 BJ40 with 24 v electricals. I am getting ready to install a 24 v 8274 winch (lots of grunt!) The truck runs on two 12v batteries in series. I still have the original alternator, but don't know what its amperage is. What is my best bet for batteries, assuming the thing will be...

Shipping I've been using Seawings Express (in Victoria) to ship from USA to Victoria BC. They have an address in Blaine Washington. Ship your order c/o them and they fly it to Victoria for cheap. That way you also bypass a brokerage fee, by walking it to customs in the airport. Pay your GST...
