Re: has anyone a chassis drawing for a 91 terreno 2.7d
You could go as far back as the bar the shocks are mounted on but you would have to relocate the fuel tank and mod your body a lot!!
Its up to you but that's a lot of work, how serious are you wanting to get?

I don't have a problem with being taught by anyone of any age,i do have a problem with someone with not much floor time and who has been on a oil company course and now knows everything about oil.

No and if you take your car to your garage to get serviced and they don't use a genuine filter it voids all warranty on your brand new car, one of there tricks,another is if you got your mate who is a qualified mechanic to service your car even with genuine parts but you don't have a invoice for the...

Re: Diesel engine maintanence
I love the service interval argument i personally don't agree with manufacturer intervals or oil company's. The recommendation i made of oil every 5000 and filter 10,000 is hard to get people to do,most people think mechanics are trying to rip them off so at work its 10,000km for everything and that...

Those are the main service items,the only other things to look at would be a good grease if you have grease points,and brakes,,good quality pads!! and skimmed or best option new rotor's!!

Re: Diesel engine maintanence
Ok my opinion, if its turboed drop the oil every 5000 and filter every 10,000. reason being heat kills your oil and running thru a turbo does just that. Fuel filter max of 20,000 as long as you are not filling from a farm tank but i would recommend every 10,000. Glowplugs don't normally get done unt...

Re: outo to manul convertion on a terreno 2.7d
You will need a gearbox,pedal box, clutch master cylinder,metal lines and slave cylinder.clutch and flywheel and the flywheel bolts, centre console and gear lever boot.
And once you got all that its just a case of swapping it all over.
