Ta, I got it :thumb2

so all TDi's are the same? Checking milner now - ta! :thumb2

is there more than one type of glow plug or are they all the same?

Thanks again, I suspect plugs, the smoke is mostly white with a possible bluish tint. But diesel is oily and the smoke was fogging one of our other cars which is dark blue.

Yep, I'll do that Thanks folks, it could be unburned fuel from one cylinder I suppose. I will get the kids to do it :thumbs

10-40 oil and never uses a drop of oil :nenau

HELP! 'tis not very often I ask technical advice but here goes. When my old banger (T2 2004 bosh electrics) is standing, out of gear or in gear with foot on clutch) it is very lumpy to rev and blows clouds of bluish smoke. When driving the smoke appears to have gone, it is not hard to start and...

I'm working on it now, with the kind help of TTT2, so it shouldn't be long - thanks for your support :thumb2

I've towed some silly weights with a T2, right up to the 2800k legal max regularly, and as much as 4500k on odd occasions, to be honest in think, as Rick said, 2500k is enough! More than that is too much for the clutch and the body weight. The usual way to tell with any car it to subtract gross...

Merry Christmas, cheeky face :thumbs

What is a T30?

Cnfabs?

It's been a long time since I've owned a TD, this used to be considered a common fault, I was told to try a dollop of molyslip auto gearbox treatment in the steering fluid and it worked a treat, I don't know if anyone else remembers the molyslip man being involved with the club?

In that case, you have nothing to lose by asking them! But I don't think there is any more we can add to this debate now! :nenau

find the cost of a rack for yourself and then google the 'book' labour time and work it out :thumb2

As far as I know they are all solid flywheels, Milner off road has lists of parts for T2s that should tell you all you need to know :-) http://www.milneroffroad.com/nissan

Briggie, is a fine example, he gives more than he takes, it would be a pity to lose him, and we lost Ryan, and Willow, could we have a few free memberships for Christmas presssies and invite them back?

I had very similar issues with my last one, and checked everything, the revs test said it was fine. In the end we stripped the clutch out and it was worn down to the rivets, simple as that :thumb2

or very adept with a filler knife :augie
