Thanks for the suggestion!!

How would one do this?

If there's air getting into the coolant, you need to at least replace the head gasket. If the gasket hasn't sealaed, for whatever reason, tightening the head bolts won't fix it. *Overtightening* the head bolts is asking for trouble. While the head is off you should check it for straightness and for...

My front Ranchos have been great since adding a 3mm spacer to the bottom bump stop. I ordered RS999166 (9.75” compressed) but if I were you I’d order the RS999188 (9” compressed) if stock height. I ended up fitting the Monroe air shocks in the rear and am liking them so far.

The site is awesome! Really well laid out and fast.

Their prices seem to be consistently 1/3 more than Amayama.com though.

Nicely done! Mind if I copy-paste it into the reference library here? Just in case MDOC goes down?

...though you missed one trick. MD372348: Alloy Half-moon seal, replaces the rubber half-moon seal under the rocker cover. Use grey silicone (the stiffer, high-strength stuff, as used on the sump)...

I just threw up a bit in my mouth. Looks like a good excuse to chop the roof and install a pop top!

I was at a Folk Festival this past weekend with several VW Vans & Busses. A friend was there who put a Westfalia pop top from the late 70's on his diesel Eurovan. This guy is super skilled and would be the guy I'd have to help me with my L300 conversion.

Anyway, we decided to go around and...

Awesome! Thank you. Heading over to Costco.

Looks like all of them have a MGW of 385kg over base weight, or 55kg per # of passengers (440kg for the 8pass).

Seems a little arbitrary to me...

You're going to have to remove the driver's seat engine cover and have a look. A large leak from above the oil filter sounds like one of the oil cooler hoses: hopefully just a loose banjo bolt, but who knows.

I use the Force.

Falco.

Problem solved. The Sender was faulty. I got a new one from Autozone at around US$ 30, swapping it out took about 30 seconds and my gauge is now working fine.
The failure mode was interesting- the sensor would work for ten minutes or so, and then give up, and not work for the rest of the day....

Thank you kindly for the information!!!
Sounds like that’s the answer.

When setting rocker clearances, I use the starter. Just a quick bump of the key turns the engine just a little. Unplug the two connnectors on top of the injection pump first, and then the engine won't start.

Well, that is some funny news. During the safety check here in Quebec, I was told the 235/75R15s weren't the correct tires and they made me put 215/70R15s on to pass (door sticker says 215SR15). So the 215SR15s are actually BIGGER?!!! I'll be reinstalling the 235s come winter...

It's not your traditional free-flowing breather, it's more of a pressure relief valve. It's a rubber mushroom which is always lightly closed to prevent water getting into the transfer case, but will vent slightly once the pressure overcomes the rubber seal. It relieves pressure more readily than it...

I really didn't want excess loctite making its way down the shaft and into the bearing...
:shock: Yeah no thanks on that bearing gunked up.

I would adjust the wastegate and drive it around for a bit, confirm the 12psi over a couple of days, before adjusting the diaphragm. That way if anything...
