Subject: 1994 LWB Y60 Safari High Roof (or loof ha ha) with the TD42T (not Ti), auto of course, party roof, rear beer cooler and third row seating.
Condition: 125 000 kms, no rust. Very good condition.
Problem: I wanted to adjust the timing and up the cracking pressures. The engine was down on power and economy a bit.
Discovery: Injectors removed to find they are the same as the non turbo 0050 B and 113 nozzles. Injectors tested and nozzles worn out; some thin streams that changed position with every stroke, some sticking on 3-4 of the injectors and 1 injector was sticking worse than the others.
Procedure: Injectors overhauled (by me) and cracking pressures set to 1800 psi with 121 nozzles. Injectors installed and engine has a distinct diesel sound again.
The IP on this Safari is a little different than the non turbo Safaris. I had asked a few members about what to expect for static timing (cam disc lift) but I was a little surprised to find 0.43mm. Timing reset to 0.53mm
Test runs to go.....
Any feedback on the timing appreciated.
