    The only diesel IP specialist I know of and trust in the area does not own a gauge for my dinosaur of a IP. Can someone confirm this dial gauge will likely do the trick?

    Pretty sure my guide pin is sticking and won't come all the way out for max fueling. this would explain my lack of top end power loss over the summer. I pulled the eccentric a few weeks ago and tried to get at from the inside with pb blaster, but having read up on it, sounds like it really...

    I don't know what to call this but when tweaking my injection pump last weekend this spacer fell off. I was able to finangle it back in place and use a rubber o-ring to "replace" the half that fell off but I'd like to find a permanent replacement. If looking at the injection pump from the...

    is the circled screw in my pictures the max screw? If so, can someone clarify exactly what it does? does it increase the fueling along the entire throttle range, or just at the top end? I have not had any luck on the web finding a picture of the screw, even though it is referenced quite a...

    Hey all, Couldn't find anything in the search on this alternator conversion idea at d-90. Found the info I wanted at the following site: http://rangerovers.net/rrupgrades/electrical/boschalternator.html . Didn't want to pay the $850 for a new alternator for my 90 and also was not too stoked...
