It is not there yet. I definitely feel a boost above 2K RPM but power below is not where it needs to be. The guys are saying it may be because of some of the functions that need to be implement such as a fuel restriction when you are at the end of the steering travel--or maybe the fuel restriction is there all the time. I'm not going to push it and it will be going back in for the Terrain Tamer items.how's the power increase feel?
I'm glad you started a thread on the truck. Always interested in another manual diesel 80!No idea on the boost. I purchased from a broker who didn't know. He had already replaced all the bushings and trailing arms, etc...I'll find out more when I get it into a good mechanic. No death wobble, very tight at 70mph+ and plenty of power for this manual 5spd. I have extensive undercarriage and suspension pics, let me know if you want to see anything particular?
The Omani started life as a 1HZ diesel so the fuel lines all should be fine. That is, unless they are obstructed like those in the Holy Truck.... Thank you for mentioning this.Has anyone looked upstream on the fuel system on the diesel?
Make sure the pickup in the tank is on obstructed.... also what size fuel feed line is running from the tank forward?
I was told to run 1/2" all the way from the pickup inside the tank forward to the IP when swapping in an ft into a gasser just to be safe.
Thank you Aussie! That is just the kind of info I was hoping to attract. I so so appreciate Mud and help like what you just provided. Thanks mate!The 1HZ fuel lines are potentially too small - Toyota changeed to 12mm lines for the turbo diesels in about 11/92 to resolve a surging issue.
Also sounds like she needs the boost compensator adjusted, an FT will pull well below 2k rpm with a free-flowing exhaust and properly adjusted compensator.
