Re: L300 wont start

Managed to get a very strong heater to put under the delica, and even though the computer said it was 19C in the garage, it still wont start. So its looking more and more like the temperature sensor :)

Re: L300 wont start

Just read your old post and the motor had a broken timing belt? If so: Pull the head. Look for stuck bent valves, damaged rockers, cracks, broken guides, damaged/destroyed pistons/cylinders. everything was checked out by our mechanic, and everything was given a clean bill of health :) i should have...

L300 wont start

Bet you getting sick of me by now, but its nearly finished (i hope) :-D. The Delica has been rebuilt (new belts and tensioners) by a Mitsubishi mechanic, the battery is good, there seems to be fuel (strong smell of diesel when cranking it over), the glow plugs are good, and there is power getting to...

Delica battery setup (single or double battery ?)

Does anybody know the setup for the delica battery, as a mate had the van running with his starter pack, but i dont know how he fitted it and i cant get in touch with him now. All i have is a battery cable with a black box on (also has a smaller box to that connector), and the other cable has a red ...

Re: Question about timing belt change (cant get crankshaft off)

Right then, we have been able to find the time again and the crankshaft pulley is off, but there seems to be ALOT of oil behind it. So a couple of days ago i bought a new crankshaft oil seal from Mitsubishi (£23 :shock: ), but on closer inspection the oil seems to be nowhere near the seal, but behin...

Re: Question about timing belt change (cant get crankshaft off)

Okay, we managed to get the crankshaft bolt out :-D, then we undid the 4 small bolts, and the pulley came off. But now the two pulleys behind wont come off, so how do they come off, and will we need a puller of some type?

Question about timing belt change (cant get crankshaft off)

Hi all, i have finally been able to start working on the Delica (work has been hectic), so i managed to take the fan/fan clutch/water pump pulley off but now i have got to the stage where i have to take the crankshaft pulley off, but i dont know how to stop it from turning. Even if i try and hold on...

Strange doesnt even come into it

Re: converted by Mystery Machine ;D

i am going to see about fixing the old engine first but seeing as i havent even picked it up yet, i dont know how bad the damage is. Will no doubt be getting the original seats off the seller, then have 4 seats and space for the business stuff (plumbing). After it is home i will also have to check t...
