enjoy S France, even in a Cad my fav area for fast driving in France is in the (north) east, the Italy/France border area the highway system is out of this world, very very little traff. on great roads the scenery is fantastic (mountain area) this is a an area where you can play in the...

ran the engine for a couple of hours today, for sure, the temp sensor is in the hot stream rather than the cold stream so swapped the hoses on the oil filter flange where the oil cooler is connected ----- didnt get around to check the results though, new problem popped up, suddenly the...

sort of OT, but since its Sunday . . . ; yes, quite a lot of fun actually some years ago many guys with boats similar to mine used 1UZ, 1UZs are powerful as well as plentiful and very cheap in Thailand, but all of them except 1 guy (he runs on gas) have now changed to much more costly and much...

I'd also like to have a go at 50, ain't easy to come across fully synthetic 50 in Bangkok

am using 5/40 fully synthetic (the engine is probably from a 94 or 95 Celsior) seems to work OK

that consumption sounds reasonably OK in my view (mine 1UZ is using considerably more, but the mill is in a boat not in a car)

Two different bolt patterns on the same 1UZ????????????????? Not sure I understand what you mean.

Happy, yes. It works every time I turn the key. Price 276 pound sterling, including UK VAT that is. I bought it from a shop named Yeoman's in Brighton UK.

Last year I bought a 1UZ starter from a Toyota shop in the UK. It appeared that the Toyota shop is selling refurbished starters, they beef up scrapped/2nd hand starters and sell them at reduced prices

right, Have had a lengthy job fixing up some injectors and some ECU wiring, the mill is now running fine, without producing any annoying white exhaust. Its now put to rest and will sleep until my new boat is finished, about end of April I guess. Ran the engine for a couple of hours...

thanks a lot. ta.

When I first got my 1UZ it had ECU 50241. Since then I have screwed up 3 ECUs. Could not get hold of 50241 used 50240 in stead, to me seems the engine is running just fine with 50240. Although, I wonder if somebody knows the difference between the two.

At last, today all wee bits of the engine put together, exhaust manifolds/pipes back on, gear box back on, temporary cabling of instruments done and a bit of this and a bit of that and the mill started! wow, right away (tried the ECU that sank, it was openes cleaned in fresh water and...

Thanks for that, ta.

would you have a link to where you ordered that thermostat?

Yeah, I was also wondering when Mexico went south Anyway, living in Thailand, have a 1UZ in a fairly fast boat, I guess I have the fastest boat in Bangkok and surroundings. (know of 4 other chaps in Thailand that have 1UZ in boats) (would love to get hold of a 1VD twin turbo though)

stupid me didn't have a life jacket, thats why this was very close to fatal, am not a good swimmer anymore and especially not in river streams hit something? no sprang a leak? yes whole the size of a A4 (20*30 centimeter) sheet in the bottom, rotten stringers and rotten bottom panels

right, thanks a lot for the info last week I received the infrared thermo I had ordered wednesday last week the engine was installed again after having sorted out some propeller rake problems my plan was to check the temperatures on oilcooler and hoses and where the hoses are...
