Hi everyone

Once again i need your expert help. :D

there seems to be a lot of confusion about this topic. :?:

I have a 1995 D21 Nissan Terrano with the 2.7 TD engine

Now, is Nissans TD27 engine gear driven motor with pushrods?

Are all TD27 engines the same? ( some have have silver and some have black rocker covers..)

Thanks for your help in advanced! :D

All the same, gear drive to cam and injector pump. Push rods from cam to rockers.

just googled.
Gear by the looks.

PS a pushrod doesn't replace a cam chain, belt or gear drive.

OHC or pushrod both have one of those three.
