There are NO oil leaks or any sign at the back/smoke of the back bakkie to indicate that it is burning the oil.. This being going on for at least a ye...

Replaced all hoses, new thermostat and changed radiator cap of new radiator with another (thought that maybe the cap from the new radiator is faulty) My problem are the following: As soon as I am getting to a incline on th...

Re: Hilux Suspension Choices
I had similar problem with my Hilux to the extend that I wanted to buy a kidney belt. I then started to deflate my rear tyres to only 1.6 Bar. This made a huge difference on road handling as well as the tyre life of my mud terrains (getting excess of 70 000km with minor "heal and toe" . We...

Re: KZTE Long Range Tank - Pipe in right place?
Hi Morgan, I fitted a long range tank as well and my experience is that you need to do certain things when filling up: - I need to shake and even pull on the door to get air out - Remember that the auxillary fiils up first and the flow to your original tank is slower as the main inlet....takes some ...

End of Story: SmokeMiss after start.
Took my Lux to Nel's Diesel in Vanderbijlpark. Repaired my injectors @ cost of R 2200.00.
Apparently you can not repair the D4D injectors and must replace @ a cost of R 2500.00 EACH - just some info.
Thanx for all the advice... some scary... but thanx anyway.
