do the injector line sgo out the top of the pump or the back...
if the top then the injector lines are all in a row and if out the back then they are in a circle...

So inline.

What to do?

Great forum by the way!

By the way I'm going to L.A and ST. Lois in a couple of weeks are there any special Landcruiser stores i just have to visit ?( living in Sweden)

Thanks

Before you start turning up the fuel to your precious little 3B let me ask you a Question. Have you a pyrometer and boost guage installed and operating? If not I am very hesitant to tell you where you should begin adjusting the output volume of your fuel pump as over fueling could cause some major damage to your cylinder heads if the egt's are not monitored closely.

Agree X100....

No fuel adjustments to be done with out a pyro for sure.

Absolutley- I'm installin pyro today. Pretty new to adjusting diesels but seems to be easier than petrol engines anyvays, as long as you dont overfuel/ overheat it's OK?

Honestly mate that is not quite right. You need to make sure your injectors are in good condition , even in bad condition you will get more power and do more damage.You must make sure your radiator, water pump, thermostat and fan are operating at 100% efficiency. Incorrectly adjusted the 2H and 3B can run staggering E,G,Ts. Best make sure rather than a rebuild. cheers and enjoy the boost it's so cool.
