My d21 navara with td27t get about 430km to 50l and is the same open road,town driving and towing. The milage was the same when it had a non turbo td27 just a bit more power now.

So i got a terrano dash cluster and control unit. Is there any way of changing the km on the dash as my cluster reads 175km but new cluster reads 270km???

Did you use the whole cluster or just the rev counter part. If you used the whole cluster how did you sort out the millage on the speedo??

Yup - Struts on the front.... All good - will make a start tonight and see how it goes!

Cheers guys [/quote]

Ha Ha sorry for that guys.

We just droped the torsions down at the back, undid the gear box mounts, undid the drive shafts ect and slid the gear box back as far as we could.

I had a simalar prob. I had the SD23 and put in a TD27t. The SD sensor picked up one (from memory)pulse per rev and went direct to tacho, the TD sensor picks up 6 pulses per rev and drives the tacho via the EGR 'Brain'. This black box is found in the rear left guard in Terrano's. I had to use one ...

I have just installed a td27t-2 into my navara, The factory speed sensor in the navara is by the water pump. but in the 94 td27t-2 it is under the diesel pump gear. The plugs are the same, but when the motor is started the needle starts a 6000 rpm and works it way back down. We reversed the pins in ...

all sorted, we ended up taking off the oil block and pumped oil down to the oil pump.

10 psi at idle maybe. idle being about 5-700 rpm. if you can get that out of a starter motor you would have to be feeding it like a 100 volts in which case watch out for the flying bits. and the smoke lol. honestly you have gone above and beyond the call of duty. most engine after sitting a few ...

TD are not quick on getting oilpresure. Im thinking you are not getting enough spin out of starter motor to get oil presure up. I would be inclined to start it. you have no reason to think the engine has a proplem other than your starter motor no oil test. I spent a few hours this morning trying to ...

You have to drop the front diff to take sump off to check oil pickup.

we did start the motor by mistake but only let it run for 3-4 seconds, we hadn't primed the pump so didn't think it would have started. after that we unpluged the fuel cut. yip just spinning on the started the 620 cca batery is almost flat.

I have just installed a 94 td27t into my navara it only has 100k onit but has been sitting for a few years. Now i carn't get oil preasure, I have tried pre filling filter over filling using a 300ml plunger to force oil up the oil filter track Cranking motor We took off the oil line to the turbo and ...

Motor all in, I just moved the gear box back as far as i could. Just need to get oil preasure now, The motor has been sitting for a while.

[quote="u13turbo"]Had the same problems, drop the front diff. seems to be the best way around it.[

How much work is it to drop out the front diff??

We had problems removing td27t motor from gearbox. The sump was hitting the front diff, we ended up unbolting the clutch and leaving it in the bell housing to give us some more space. We also jacked the gear box up. Is there an easier way to get the motor back in IE drop the front diff, slide the ...

I have made a 3 inch down pipe for my td27t and am looking at doing a 2.5 inch system with 2 mufflers and a resonator.will it be ok with these mufflers?? I only went with a 3 inch down pipe because it cost me $20 to make.

If any one has different ideas i am all ears.

I think this was an option in cold climates, it would overpressurize diesel in pump for starting. I read it somewhere.

I think i read this to in the td27 book
timing case plug is for engine revolution sensor for ERG system

here are some picks

I have the firts gen td27t motor in my navara but it is getting a bit tired. So i brought a complete td27t-2 motor with 100k on it. my current pump only has the fuel cut off wire left with all the potentiometer stuff removed.The new VE pump has allot more wires, what do i need and what can i remove ...

Thanks TD power thats what i wanted to know.

Are the injector pumps a straight swap, or is there more to it.

nissantd27 wrote:they sure can

Is there much work i have found a 1996 td27eti with 118k for $750 but just want to swap all the manual pump gear over. Can you tell me some more info.

Can the newer nissan td27t eti motors be converted to run a mechanical injector pump off the older td27t. I am not realy wanting all the hassels with the wiring loom ect but want the newer low km motor.

Just get the turbo,injector pump,inlet and exhaust manifolds,oil block for the oil filter this has the turbo lines ect.The only difference with the injectors is a shim that changes the release fuel preasure And you don't have to tap the block or sump for oil return, just check your compression befor ...

Did a compression test 310 psi 310 psi 290 psi 290 psi Truck still goes very good but the lower limit is 350 psi. Compression test results can be affected by numerous factors: -engine temp -was throttle held open or closed when testing -tester used (may not all read the same) -atmospheric pressure ...
