Hi all, I am about to replace the gauge cluster with a 4cyl unit so I can run the tach off the ignitor. Does anyone have a wiring diagram to show which is the signal wire for the tach in the dash? I have searched around with no luck so far. Cheers Matt.

Thanks guys. I think the next mod will be to fit a V6 3L fuel tank with in tank pump to make all these problems go away. Cheers Matt.

Pump checks out okay on the bench, back in the truck with a container supplying fuel and it lights up first time. Reconnect fuel tank line and after 10 seconds cranking it fires up with no problems. Weird. Must have been an air blockage of some sort that the pump couldn't shift. Thanks to...

Nice one Clint. That Cobra will be ridiculous. Cheers Matt.

Thanks for the reply. The pump is mounted on the inner guard so it's definitely not near or below the tank level. There are no visible cracks, the hard lines run right to the tank pretty much so there is only a small section of flexible line. It's worked okay for the last 8 months but I...

I have had this truck, a 91 Surf for about 8 months with the 1UZFE and it's been good, always starts with no problems. It failed to start the other day, pulling the fuel link from the filter to the fuel rail showed air pressure but no fuel. Connecting a new line to the pump outlet running...

Thanks Kelvin. I haven't opened my Link yet to see what model it is, it's been in and running for a couple of years so it's an existing install that has been okay till now. Cheers Matt.

Thanks Muzza. I thought I had read somewhere that you could potentially damage the electronics by running a plug like that so wanted to check before I did so. I haven't cracked the injector lines but there is definitely fuel leaving the pump. After some constant cranking without firing...

After being away for 3 weeks I just in the Hilux and it fires up first time as usual. After idling for a minute or so I go to take off and it starts to run really rough as if it's only on a couple of cylinders and eventually stalls. It won't restart but whilst it's cranking it sounds like...

Nice work mate. Matt

I am looking to go from 2x 10in to 1x 16in. Anyone have a recommendation on a good 16in fan? A single 16in should cover considerably more than the 2x 10in units. I might also look at making a shroud if I don't get enough cooling improvement from the fan upgrade. Cheers Matt.

Thanks Nemisis, that looks exactly like what I need. Cheers Matt.

Cheers, it's quite tight between the radiator and the motor so really need to get a hose with the correct shape to clear the pulley's and belts. Any pics? Cheers Matt.

What hoses are people using, especially the thermostat housing to lower radiator tank house? My inlet/outlets are reversed and I am about to get them swapped but it looks like the radiator hose will contact the waterpump/accessories belt. Does the bottom tank outlet typically come up a wee...

Where did you get the replacement idler from, mine has had the pipes blocked off and the puller is starting to squeal ocassionally :-( Cheers Matt.

Of course. Cheers Matt.

Nice one. How did he resolve the front diff issue? I thought the axles went through the sump on the Nissan's? Cheers Matt.

Wicked Clint! Is it still 4x4? The performance will be unreal. Cheers Matt.

Ideally you would want to get everything from the same car then you can be assured of getting a complete running setup. I would do the SAS first, you will then know how much you need to lift the body to fit the motor. The IFS usually means you have to lift at least 2in's wheras I think you...

Jules, I think we have already touched base but you can come and check out my 1UZFE LN130 as soon as I have the right front suspension back together! I am in Wellington and have a 3in body lift, 3in suspension lift with OME springs/shocks, R151 trans, manual hubs, 33in Maxxis tires, snorkel...
