    HJ61 Possible sensitive throttle fix

    Just to complete the story, the shock absorber is an aftermarket unit for an Axial Yeti. With the geometry of the brackets I made, I needed a shock/damper 120mm eye-eye, with 40mm stroke to still get full travel of the throttle lever. It was a bit of mucking around, but well worth it.

    HJ61 Possible sensitive throttle fix

    The lower connection is a piece of 1.2mm plate, bent around into a U shape to make the clevis for the lower shock mount. It is tack welded to the throttle lever, and my aftermarket ball joint stud is also bolted through it. It extends the throttle lever by about 10mm to keep the bottom shock...

    HJ61 Possible sensitive throttle fix

    That piece of 25mm x 25mm hollow section provided me with the perfect spot to mount a bracket for the RC car shock absorber. I just made the bracket from some more hollow section - two pieces back to back to make a clevis for the top shock mount - and welded it on.

    HJ61 Possible sensitive throttle fix

    Okay. First things first, I extended the standard 12HT throttle cable bracket so it reached down further towards the throttle lever on the pump. This allowed me to use the 2H throttle cable without having to extend it (simply cut the fitting off the end and secure it into an aftermarket ball...

    HJ61 Possible sensitive throttle fix

    Hey team, just thought it might be worth sharing this. I drew from your collective wisdom and odingski’s suggestion of an RC car damper and installed this today. It works brilliantly. Provides just the right amount of damping on both opening and closing the throttle. No more kangaroo hopping...

    12HT Intake Pipe Pressure Port?

    Thanks CenTX. I’d appreciate that. Those lights you mention are controlled by the port on the boost/pressure side of the turbo which also feeds a signal to the boost compensator on the injection pump. This port is on the turbo suction side pipe though.

    12HT Intake Pipe Pressure Port?

    Thanks mate, I know that one too, but it comes from the high pressure side of the turbo on the crossover pipe, not the suction side, and runs to the injection pump to fuel her up when on boost.

    12HT Intake Pipe Pressure Port?

    Thanks Earwigg. I thought I had that one sorted. Vacuum line from vac pump on back of alternator to the temp sensor (exactly where you say it is) and on to one of the the idle-up diaphragms. Unfortunately, this isn’t really a vacuum port as it’s on the inlet side to the turbo. It will see a...

    12HT Intake Pipe Pressure Port?

    Yes, I’ve got a couple of those diagrams but this one isn’t referenced unfortunately, and there’s nothing in my FSM either (that I can find 🙄).

    12HT Intake Pipe Pressure Port?

    Yes, that exact one. You fooled me at first until I realised the pipe is on its side.

    12HT Turbo Inlet Pressure Port

    I’ve re-posted this in the Diesel Tech forum. Thought that ma6 be more appropriate. Cheers.

    12HT Intake Pipe Pressure Port?

    G’day team. I’m in need of some advice please. I’m about to put a 12HT into our 60 Series to replace the tired 2H. Thanks to this forum, and your collective experiences, I think I’m across most of the conversion aspects. But there’s one item I’m uncertain about - a small tube which protrudes...

    12ht VSV with 2h edit wiring

    Hey coldtaco. Thanks for sharing that solution. You’ve opened up a train of thought I hadn’t considered. I like your custom throttle cable too. Is that the Lokar S1034 end on it?

    12ht VSV with 2h edit wiring

    Hi ozcruiser. Just preparing a 12HT to fit to our 60 Series and was very pleased to find your thread. I’m planning on following your wiring advice above but wanted to check if yours is still working okay four years down the track?

    SOLD 2H/12HT cold climate oil pan insulator

    Interesting. I just bought a 12HT import engine (ex Japan) and it has exactly the same cover over the sump, plus black foam insulation pads between the oil cooler and the inlet manifold. must be a cold climate spec, or maybe even an emergency services spec? I can’t find the parts listed...

    Builds 1978 FJ-40 R2.8 Cummins Build - "Mater"

    For the bolt, I’d try filing a flat on the shank that’s sticking out, centre punching it, then try drilling it out and using an easy-out or re-tapping the thread. Some easy-out kits come with left handed drills and you find that when drilling the hole, the bolt comes out anyway. For the...

    HJ47 Troopy bent leaf spring plate and U-Bolts

    Hi Chocco, I have a similar issue on an HJ45 project ute. I need new spring plates but am struggling to find anything other than 75 Series plates. Did you get it sorted for your rig? Cheers
