I have heard of hiluxes burning holes in pistons in the dunes when chipped.

I wouldn't. If you want more power, have it remapped by a good tuner with EGT reading integration.

exactly. Hence why I look at the many many many reports by owners. They have nothing to gain or lose by sharing their experience.

4ePikanini

Then why is the internet filled with good stories of 2SO and almost no stories of bad experiences with 2SO?

Until a test is done by an independent source that has nothing to gain or to lose by either result (and is not bound by legislation) I will believe in my own logic and own findings.

pull the engine and sump

Leave it in bath full of diesel turning the engine by hand every few hours to work the oil pump - leave the diesel filter on.

Then let it drain for a day. Fill with fresh oil and fresh filter, run it for 200km. Drain the oil again and change the filter again.

My diesel doesn't get more mileage with 2SO but many report that they do so it's not unheard of. I do get much better mileage on 500ppm than 50ppm. If you want to try the 2SO thing, get some from caltex or Sasol as their stock is JASO FC spec which is a clean burning ("low ash" is the tech...

everybody's ads will differ based on your search and browsing history.

I guess you must have been browsing ford forums or looking at the ford website.... :)

Buy the best condition one. Both engines are bullet proof although the petrol is much thirstier than the diesel.

I live out of town and very seldom go into town. If it's not many, PM me your email address with the file numbers you want and I will e-mail them one by one.

Full res is not much better as the camera is only a Canon 300D. One of the first Canon DSLRs.

Shalene and I would love to join. A few questions though. What's for dinner Friday night? Each bring their own stuff and we braai together or do we all add towards a food fund? Same question for the Saturday morning? Do we have to bring our own braai stuff as well or is there facilities where the lo...

Baie mense is skepties maar se vir hom hy moet 1 liter 2 stroke oil by 'n vol tenk diesel gooi. Daai tenk moet hy niksminder as 20km per trip ry nie en hy moet hom hard ry (onthou om rustig te vat terwyl hy koud is en onthou om te idle vir 60 sekondes voor hy afskakel). Verkieslik moet hy 'n 300km t...

maak weer vuur. Gooi water in die pot en laat hom kook op die vuur tot die vuur dood is.

Die vuilgoed binne sal sag wees en maklik af kom.

I have been going through a similar thing with my touareg. One thing after the other. Don't be silly like I was with my previous cars. As soon as you have it in good condition, you sell it for peanuts to some lucky guy and you go and buy a dud to start all over again. Keep it and fix it properly and...

I've already watched the first episode. Pretty funny but most of the program is of the hot hatch challenge with Jeremy in a "slammed" GTi.

Ek bly op n plaas. Werk met beeste, trekkers, rekenaars en bakkies elke dag. As jy op n plaas bly en winkel toe gaan is 'n beplanning en n pyn. Dan sal jy hierdie goed verstaan. As jy met ghries gesig en neus en hande in die winkel in stap en nie skaam kry nie. Dan is jy n boer. :) Sent from my iPad 2

Now just tell me something unless I missed it but why did the motor come out?

I bought the car and 2 months down the line the engine had a huge miss. Rings broke in cylinder 5 and slowly destroyed the bore.

Full story is linked in my sig.

I drove up from the bottom right of the pic. And i went over that hump and exited left of the picture.

It took some doing but i managed.

I don't really know him. He arrived just after I recovered the patrol and then he recovered the syncro that was stuck.

Never even got to shake his hand. It was a rainy day so we got on with business and the rest of the time we were in the car.

sjoe. ek het gedink hulle is ligter as dit. Ek sal eerder nie stir met my 2.5 se gebruik nie.
