What does this do?

On the TD42 engine that I am putting in my patrol, there is this diaphragm that opens with vacuum which operates a butterfly inside the inyake manifold. As it was not connected to anything when I got the engine, i dont know where it is suppose to connect to nor what its purpose is. The engine is ori...

TD42 injector pump

Hoping some of the diesel fans can assist me with this one. I bought a TD42T engine recently to replace my current ZD30 with. The TD42 came out of a UD40 truck so it is turbo'd as standard. After fitting the engine in my Patrol, i couldnt get more than 0.4 bar boost. I had the injectors done so they...

Re: Advice needed with conversion

Michael, are there any differences in the auto boxes fitted to the 4.5 and the 3.0 models? I do have a spare manual box but I like the idea of auto better. Then again it doesnt help doing a conversion and after all the costs and trouble it doesnt work. In your opinion, why does the 4.2td not work we...

Advice needed with conversion

Morning all My dad and I are busy converting my ZD30 auto to TD42. The 4.2 is from a cabstar. The problem we now have is that the crank of the 4.2 has a larger diameter than the ZD30 so the torque converter and flyweel doesnt fit. I got a flywheel for the 4.2 engine but the torque converter still wo...

Difference in gearboxes?

Hi guys, Is there anyone that knows whether all the auto boxes across all models are the same or are there some differences on the insides of the auto boxes of the 4.5, 3.0 and 4.2 models. I understand that the 4.8 box will be different due to the fact that it is tiptronic. The same question also ap...

Re: Patrol built locally Y61

Just for interest sake, I worked in the Nissan production plant in Rosslyn from 2004 untill 2007 and we never built any Patrols there during that time and I know for a fact that they are not building them there presently. I have family members still working for Nissan SA
