Yea man how did you go? You will definatley need to increase the fuel screw if you have installed a turbo. The amount of increase in fuel just from the aneroid is not going to be enough to warrant the install.of a turbo. Screw increases fuel across the whole rev range I'm sure you know then...

Nah your a legend mate, gave me the exact answer I needed right in time. Appreciate the guidance to Benos post. Everything back together now and on road. I have removed the axle from both birfs and on way to a lathe for the groove to be cut. Have a great day mate. 🤙🤙

Hey Kernal just seen your reply. That sounds exactly what's happening. So from this I'm trying to figure out what has happened, and what I need to do. Do I have the wrong birfields for my late 1995 model. And to do now I have to machine an edge deeper into the hub for the circlip to seat...

So far I have found that the free wheeling hub seats perfectly and functions LOCK and FREE without this circlip installed. The circuit was on the car when I installed it and now the free wheel seems to hit it and leave a gap. Is this clip really necessary or do I have to take the axle out, and...

The cv birf is the same size as mine I took out but the axle shaft seems to be 7mm longer

Hello I have some new axle and cvs I am putting in and the new axle is slightly longer (7mm) My cruiser is late 1995 and from what I've read as it's after early 94 it should have the longer one from factory. What am I getting wrong here? The manual hub lock won't fully seat Cheers

Yes it does have the Map inside the diagnostic plug cap labelling all of the pins but as you can see I only have the 5 of the 20 available. Yes my car is diesel, so there is no diagnostic process for my engine as there is for a petrol? What is my Diagnistic port for?

Hello 1995 HZJ80R I am trying to figure out what is going on with my cars OBD/ Diagnosis plug I have the OBD 1 I beleive inside my engine bay on the passenger firewall. Trying to jump Pins TE1 and E1 to run a Diagnosis by engine light flashes. The plug in my car is missing alot of the pins...

Also, yes I am aware this is a bull**** way to attempt a rebuild on just a single bottom end component. My plan is to have the engine rebuild with forged conrods, ceramic 1Hz turbo pistons etc and all the fun stuff. Crack test my cylinder head and block, have em decked and rebuild or replace the...

Thanks for all replies and in future I will remeber to post in the Diesel section, my bad. Engine runs like a kitten and had no smoke other than the usual puff on startup only if I don't glow twice. In terms of the engine components I gave replaced the shims which were all pretty close to...

Yes correct I was planning on replacing just the BEB's and bolts from the bottom of the vehicle by just removing the sump, sender and steering arms for access. My reasoning is just from paranoia due to not knowing how long ago the vehicle was turbod and its service history as the PO didn't...

1995 1HZ turbod by Previous Owner 375k 5 spd manual intercooled 12psi Max 109HP never seen EGTs over 450 New pretty much everything except internal engine parts. I am going to replace my BEB's as a precaution for a long trip acroas QLD and have been reading through the many not another BEB...

Thanks mudgudgeon Yes that was the issue I had with the bearing and thankyou for the info I will need that when my throw bearing actually goes. Upon closer inspection my issue was actually the rear uni joint giving way and causing the misdiagnosed squeak. A few squirts of WD40 on the rear...

Hello all I have had my clutch replaced by a mechanic 8 months ago with an Excedy heavy duty that I had provided myself. After picking up the car he gave me the brand new thrust bearing (throw?) Back and said it didn't fit my shaft. 8 months on now my thrust bearing I suspect is giving...

Hello I have just installed a boost compensator to my pump, been doing road tests and fine tuning the pump. I have taken the aneroid and diaphragm out to decrease preload on the spring and the guide pin in the pump has popped out in the way. Is there a way to get this out of the way without...
