will post pics tomorrow,any one out there got a 2.4 diesel toyota radiator they want to part with, dont think mine is up to the task

Mounted the radiator tonight, used a toyota dyna truck radiator, same width but taller, sticks down a bit but will be putting in lowered crossmember soon when I do a jafa cross over steering kit.
Not much room between the radiator and crank pully though how much is to little, I have about 13mm, I want to keep the third pulley for future super charger :twisted:

Took the diesel tank out tonight and mounted the electric fan, any suggestions for getting the tank ready from diesel to petrol?

shit when I pulled the 3F out of my cruiser and put the chev in I had 300mm between the bottom pully and the radiator :shock:

dunno about flushing the fuel tank but a bit of diesel residue cant hurt can it :scratch:

I'd just rinse it out wif petrol then chuck a decent (20 or 30 litres) in for ya start up. 13 mm for clearance should be ok, bout the same as mine

When I changed mine from drizzle to petrol I just drained the tank and 1/2 filled it with petrol. You'll get a bit of smoke for a bit, but it won't last long.

The diesel helps lubricate the motor ;-)
