    Alternator

    That was me trying to get the positive terminal off the post, the lugs had melted into the plastic you see there. I did check for codes before...nothing, I havent checked since though so might do that. Being an 01 plate I didnt think the ECU had much of a brain for things like this.

    Alternator

    FR-IG I have found is from 2003 onwards which is in the engine fuse box - mine is 2001 MET is the same, but in the internal passenger footwell fuse box, so mine doesnt have that either

    1HD-FTE fuel pump

    So this plug is the culprit, it’s the plug onto the timing control valve and if I push it in a certain direction it causes the engine to retard/advance in its injection timing. I’ve cut it off and have removed the pins from the plug, which were pretty beaten up. All straightened up and ready to...

    1HD-FTE fuel pump

    Fired up fine this morning, no engine light on. Will take it for a longer run in a bit, heat might be the issue as it gets worse and worse as I drive

    1HD-FTE fuel pump

    So just been out and checked sensors on the pump again. Speed sensor - should be 205-255 Ohms - 230 Ohms read Spill control valve - should be 1-2 Ohms - 1.2 Ohms read Timing control valve - should be 10-14 Ohms - 11 Ohms read all a bit lower due to reduced temps outside. I checked both the...

    1HD-FTE fuel pump

    So its back....the dreaded DCT 14(4) Timing control valve malfunction.... I noticed different symptoms this time around....a few days ago I head the engine sound change - I now know thats it advancing/retarding the injection timing to protect itself. It intially was for like .5 a second, so...

    locker actuator rebuild

    Yer I think the windings have gone, so would need to be rewound, I would have a go at it. thinking about electric actuators currently, much like the air actuators that have already been developed. I need to do more research but I believe the only reason for the clocking and the complicated...

    locker actuator rebuild

    Fear you would say that! I will do some more experimenting before replacing With new or looking at air setups

    locker actuator rebuild

    Same here! Can we get any parts for these? My motor windings seem to be bad, smoking when I bench test it just now. I seem to have also messed up the plastic teeth in the large wheel. Motor cover that the magnets are housed inwould also be a good thing to replace on mine

    locker actuator rebuild

    My rear wasn’t engaging, opened it up today, what a mess! I will see what/if I can save anything. I think all but one bolt snapped straight off even after being left in oil, welding nuts onto the broken studs didn’t work either. Center punched and drilled out the best I could, will use a bolt...

    1HD-FTE fuel pump

    Yes, im starting to understand now the ticky sound might just be normal, i only have my dads 80 4.2 1hdt machanical pump for reference. Shaun who runs/part owns the company mentioned above, did say to check any of the rubber pipes going to the pump, as the pump is always sucking, IIRC he...

    1HD-FTE fuel pump

    Thanks, Just phoned him and spoke for 20mins, he was very reasuring, gave me a few points to explore and try, but reassured me these are noisey in their injection process by nature - and maybe it was the timing control value on the way out that made the pump so quiet, and now its working, its...

    1HD-FTE fuel pump

    Thank you for the information, very informative! Where are you based, in the UK? How fast can Shaun recalibrate them? This is my daily drive, but I could do without it for a week. Currently im just monitoring the ticky noise from the pump, but dont want to damage anything in the engine
