Hi all, Fantastic weekend off-roading! Lots of things discovered about the truck. Finally got the compression done Comparison limits are 300-400 psi We measured 1. 310 2. 310 3. 300 4. 360 5. 340 6. 300 The chap who did the work said it was up to me to rebuild or not. What do you guys...

Hey all, @AndycruiserguyLomas has been great and sorted me with a replacement sump! Thanks very much. I am looking for a gasket so its all fresh when I replace the sump but I can only find this one...

Hi all, Little update. I had a great time getting her stuck in North Wales over New Year... IMG_1624 by Tom Miller posted Feb 21, 2019 at 3:57 PM There were many reason for getting stuck, the worst of which was definitely my driving - but I did think I would be a lot better off if I could lock...

Yes it could be RG - KQ Interesting as it is now a 5 speed Manual. Is it possible it could have started as 5 speed? I will check the bulbs. Thanks

Hi Rodger, As you are probably realising, I have a lot to learn. But I looked on the bulkhead and I have the following. Frame number: HJ60 - 006540 There is also a model number. HJ60 RG-KO IS that what you are referring to? Thank you for your help

Hi Nick. Sorry that was a mis-print, Actually believe I am on 12V system with a Fixed Delay. https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/which-plugs-should-i-be-running-b-2b-3b-h-and-2h-diesels.471567/ Given the old plug said 10.5v on it, I am confident the new one (which said the same) will work and...

Really interesting. So I have been reading it wrong the whole time! What is really confusing me is that, If I have been topping up the oil as a result of pressure dropping, rather than necessarily a leak? Why did only 4L of oil come out when I changed the oil!! The manual says it should take...

@AndycruiserguyLomas I think the injector test and compression test is next to help diagnose the oil being burnt - would this tell me if the piston rings etc are buggered like they were in your thread? Or be an indicator of that? I have also rang a few garages who are not willing to do a...

This now looks to be the source of the oil dripping (which I am now assuming is very different to the oil being burnt when I drive along) Just as a point of reference - I drove a few hundred miles the other weekend and I was putting in a litre of oil every 100 miles.. When I put the oil in, the...

Hi guys, So I finally got to do a bit of work on the truck on the weekend and found out the following: Rodger I managed to check the glow plugs. One of the plugs was not working at all (passing no current) and so I have ordered a new one. My plug has 10.5v written on it and so I have ordered a...

You guys are amazing! Thanks so much for the advice and first points of call. I took a few snaps under the engine to identify where the leak is stemming from but will get more thoroughly into it. Have been away for a while but drove on the weekend and the white smoke is now being emitted under...

Hi everyone, I have run a search on the threads but didn't come up with anything so apologies if this question has been answered. I have an HJ60 (1982) that was originally an AUS truck but now lives in the UK. I bought it from North Scotland with a recent re-spray and a dipped sub frame and...
