Fantastic, i have a 300tdi in my '95 110. Amazing how they keep going. Unbeknown to me i had a crack in the head which let water in to the no4 cylinder intake, when i cranked it one day it went bang and bent a conrod! Amazingly it still ran! Was just a bit down on power. I replaced the Conrod and hopefully its good for another 200 thousand miles! Great vehicle you have!

Its nice to see a proper laning with proper motors. Shows you dont need a tricked up mega lifted disco with silly wheels. Its also interersting to see Horseshoe lane when it was still green and only one route down the step. Badly eroded in just 20yrs. Im guessing Happy Valley aswell. Trying to work out where you passed those nice series motors.? Thanks for posting. 👍👍👍

Had the replacement fitted plus timing belt,clutch rear main etc etc Goes well but drips oil from seam between bell housing and block Also lots of white smoke on start up. Had new injectors , glow plugs plus there is a knock that sounds tappety but is not. The engine came from a rolled Landie Beginning to wish I’d bought Toyota!!!!!!
@user-ku6ge7kl5i8 ай бұрын
I have a 300TDI myself, and recently had to have a new high pressure diesel pump fitted as the apparently contaminated fuel in Lesotho reduced the lubricating effect of the diesel. I mention this because you said these engines would run on paraffin. I wouldn't recommend this for the above reason.

Indeed, very good to hear that this is your engine of choice.. I have just replaced a Puma 2.4 with a 300Tdi rebuilt at home. Did you stick with the standard vacuum pump or did you modify?
@slaphands7703 Жыл бұрын
Too bad you guys were there when you were. Most smoke on record and the busiest tourist season on record. We went through between Aug10th -21st. Wasn’t quite as busy. Still skipped Banff, Lake Louise and Moraine lake. Spent all of our time in the Icefields and Jasper. If you’re headed towards Vancouver island, check out Cathedral grove. Giant cedar trees. I believe from the island or Tsawwassen you can ferry to Washington state and start your journey south once the weather starts to turn in late September/October. Cheers.
