4x4 (diesel?) For Traveling.
Hey, I'm looking at taking long holidays and seeing some of Australia by road. Ive been looking at some diesel 4x4s under $3000 found some old cruiser wagons and a couple of petrol troopys for around $5000 but would prefer a diesel. The main 3 Ive been looking at is a HJ45 troopy for $2000, mechanic owner for the last 20 years with new glow plugs and clutch mast cyl, I know it would probably need more done too it but I can get all parts at trade price and rust doesn't really bother me as I can do that myself as well. 1988 TD pajero, needs 2 tyres body work and is auto, but only has 122000kms though. For $1400, also probably needs work. And a diesel 1982 patrol, new clutch, ps pump rebuilt, new radiator, new wheels and tyres, 298000kms. $1600, once again probably needs work. Also had the same owner for the last 15 years. What I would like to know is the good and bad points about these 3 cars, I'm pretty keen on the troopy because of the extra room in the back for stuff. Not too keen on the bitsamissin cause.... well I don't really know just never been keen on Mitsubishi's.

try smaller local tyre shops, most likely they will do it (but it will cost you more)

How Many K's Do You Get To A Tank?
after complete service and carb tune I went from about 16L/100kms to around 10L/100kms. And for some reason I use more petrol when I use premium rather than just regular (not ethanol)

Ke70 Rim Offset
I'm running 195's now on my 8" as well, just get 195/50 if your using 15's it will be better because you will have smaller stiffer sidewall.
-
Ke70 Rim Offset
Don't get to much stretch, I had a sidewall collapse on Monday, was a 185/60 r14 on a 7.5" wide wheel, but then the tire was old and only had 35PSI in it. then I put a 195/60 on and still stretches a little but not too much.

3tc Carb And Emissions
What is the mod plate for?

Locked Diff And Pcd
don't drive it to the track, drive it on a trailer. As you say it will be a track car it will most likely be unroadworthy.
-
Locked Diff And Pcd
no one unless you know them or aren't very dodgy will "sell" you a locked diff, and if you do drive with one you'd better be a dam good drive in the wet. They are just dangerous and dodgy.

3tc Carb And Emissions
I'm pretty sure there is no ecu for the emissions? well at least my T18 doesn't, the air pump is operated like the alternator or A/c pump if you don't have A/C it will be the only other pump type thing, I got rid of mine cause it was making my engine run rich (but did awesome key bangers, not anymore though) the points are easy to adjust how to adjust points This pretty much explains how to adjust dizzy points, ill get the piece of paper out of my toolbox tomorrow that says what gap to put them at. Timing is again easy with the use of a timing light.
