Needhelp people
Did look around this forum , and try few tricks but only helped for awhile
This is 1987 Toyota Troopy 3,4 3b with 270.000 km on the clock
Got it 10 monts ago, truck was running fine, did simple maintnance ,fresh oil, new filters, replace all gear oil, front back axles, TC,gear box, shocks front and rear, dopmed lot of money into a interior, me being in sweden ordering carpets and seats from australia (cotst arm and a leg)anyways i realy like this truck and wanna keep it
This problem with fuel started 2 monts ago , first ot was ones in awhile now its like everyday think
From time to time truck sounds like is running on 3 cilinders, always happens when is warm up, after some time on the roud
Enging starts to shake feels like one of cilnders not get in fuel ? kind a line you would take one plug out of petrol car
I did take it to the shop , i can work on cars but i have no clue when it comes to diesel so i figure let someone who does to look at it
Guy checked all the fuel lines their were ok, new fuel filter was in, he said there was some corosion where fuel filter touch the engine when is scrued in, the aluminium part, he clean it put back the fuel filter thinking engine was geting air somehow where the corosion was
It did helped, for a short time and than it started again
Guy said it might be the pump goin bad
I try to adjust fuel pump just a touch , engine was running better
Heck i was even happy as hell the truck was pulling realy nice all gears, up hill, speeding up on 5 slowely without shifting to 4 or 3 like befor
Now its back again to the point that dies completely
As i said seems like its not getting fuel in all cilinders it start ok after 3 trys ( still cold nights in sweden) after that starts right up with no problem whats so ever , no smoke white or black not shakes nothinh till the point when is really warm( not overheating or anything) and starts to act like short on fuel and dies
It could me the pump? one next to engine?
or one in the tank ? if there is one? no clue when comes to diesel toyota retro cars , would really presiate any help , thank you
Forgot to mention po cut off the water separater so the filter is out of the circut , mechanic guy said this shouldn't be the problem as long as i make sure there is no water in the fuel filter
