Hi all,
I'm new to the forum, joined hoping for a bit of help with a project I have. I work as a field biologist with an NGO in Malawi. I was recently assigned the responsibility of sourcing and overseeing the replacement of the engine in our LJ78.
First off, can someone just confirm that this is an LJ78, and the engine is a 2L-TE? For some reason it's registration paperwork says it's a 2003 3.0D. And due to some wonderful records mixups, that's all the information anyone has on it.
From that point, I'd love suggestions on good (ideally cheaper) engines to replace this one. We're going to buy from the South African market. At this point I still don't know the full story on what happened to the engine (staff here rotates out yearly which wreaks hell on our operations continuity). Will update later with more info.
Thanks a ton for any and all help!
