Hey guys,
Fresh to diesels. I purchased my 2L-TE LN130 in October.
Since then she has had a free flow exhaust and wound up the boost to 10psi to give her a bit more oomph. Sadly she was on her dying legs when I got her. So I sourced a 5L long block and did a lot of work. New pistons, valves, can, head, bearings, etc.
My plan is to run the CT20 from the 2L. I know that this is a common conversion but I have a few questions as I have read a few conflicting things in different forums.
1) can I run the factory 2lte flywheel and clutch to suit my r151f
2) I’m going to be running a mechanical fuel pump. I know I need a boost compensation valve. (Will use my 2L one) however I’m wanting some help with wiring. Glow plugs, fuel cut solenoid etc. wondering if I get rid of the entire efi worong and start fresh or do I cut out what’s needed etc.
3) how does the wiring work. Going from EFI to manual. I drowned the truck once and fried the ecu so not wanting it to happen again hence going manual.
If anyone can help It would be much appreciated.
