Evening gents, Well ive not done much recently as im mad busy at work but i have managed to strip the head so as it stands ive re-cut the valves and lapped them in just need some stem seals now and I can build it back up. Look at those seats :) perfectly uniform nice engine to work on for once.

Couple more for you use both at work and cant rate them higher. www.ribblevalleydiesels.co.uk www.darwendiesels.com In regards to the spill valve cant say ive ever heard of one but the leak offs are often called spill pipes which could be where the confusion is?? I actually have a s**t load...

That would be the one rick along with the 4.236 and the odd p3 thrown in for good measure.

Simple engineering at its best Rick those old listers are cracking work horses, We do a lot of work for some salad farmers who bring us 6 cylinder perkins engines with in excess of 20,000 hours on mainly used in irrigation pumps now that reliability. We also do a lot of quarry equipment as well...

Well as I said I pulled the head off tonight and the more I look at this engine the more impressed I get. Its bloody spotless in there for 80k its more like 8000, There is no wear on the valves at all its looking like all this is going to need is a refresh. Rocker shaft off. Look at that...

It can be done and you can keep the cupholder, Have a search for my posts ;).

Cheers Rick, Ill be keeping it updated with pics as frequently as I can but there is no time limit so could be 6 weeks or 6 months ill try to include part numbers etc: with any parts I order all for the cause.

Well I thought id start another rebuild thread as ive decided I want to keep my terrano for the foreseeable future, So as I love the thing I think its only right I do good by it and make sure that it has a tip top heart under the bonnet. Ive recently picked up a complete engine and gearbox inc...

Screen fits spot on its a bit tight getting everything to fit when clipping the centre console back on and you could do with 3 arms. The only downside is I have a small gap down either side of the head unit but I can live with that, on the plus side my cup holders still work in regards to the...

Its not the centre console that needs cutting its the bit behind, have a look at my thread sure i put some pics in of what needs doing.

Have you picked it up Zac? Hope all went well.

Its the engine out of a 200sx same bellhousing pattern as the ka24. Have a quick read https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/theapexhunter.com/2015/09/28/opinion-sr20det-vs-ka24det/amp/ If you need a lift finding one i can help.

Jet wash underneath first. Unless its substantial its an advisory.

Zac, Bin the 2.4 and go for the sr20det now that would be a proper maverick in sheeps clothing lol.

Essentially what happens is the exhaust valve seats recess into the head due to the lack of lubrication running on lpg. The valve train will go quieter as the clearance dissapears, Then is will start to misfire and you will lose compression on cylinders until the valve seat breaks up completely...

Well the terrano went in today for its mot and passed with one advisory on a bit of rust on the boot floor, The usual double skin but hey I have 12 months to fix it or buy a patrol ;) on the plus side I managed a wage rise too and im off for a week in the caravan from tomorrow summer at its...

Nooo not lpg valve seat recession here we come. Love how nobody tells you the long term effects of an lpg conversion.

Yep on virgin here too, What did they offer you refund wise? If you dont mind me asking. I was thinking of leaving them for sky but I cant fault the service or broadband speed never had an issue in the 10 years of being with them.

No mate its been on nearly a year and still going strong, I did put some tiger seal round the cable where it goes into the light unit as I wasnt happy it was waterproof.

Nissan breakers near me has loads ill ask on price at weekend when I pop in, Cant see them being expensive they usually in a skip with loads of other scrap.
