Looks like my Injection Pump is beginning to seep a bit on my LJ78. Odo is at 180,000kms, but I suspect it was rolled back before import to Canada. Truck runs perfect still, but want to be preventative with this. I think it's time for a seal kit. Got a couple questions before I pull the IP off and get started.
Would this seal kit work ok? http://www.ebay.ca/itm/161208925287?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649
I'm under the impression that usually replacing all the seals is enough, and the mechanical components are usually still within tolerance. Is this what others have found also?
Any opportunity for a performance increase while I have it open? Are there parts from the 1KZTE pump that can be crossed over? I'm at the limits of the 2LTE pump right now, and room for a bit more fuel would be nice. I imagine this is beyond the capability of a person without specialty training and tools though....that said I do have good friends in a scientific machine shop at the University where I work.
I plan to follow this procedure (http://www.kovsh.com/media/library/231/V 3 P5ZGR01.pdf), but are there any tricks I should know?
Can I expect any sort of economy or power increase when I'm finished?
Here are a couple pics of the seeping, and of my truck. Thanks for any advice folks!
