    New-to-me Isuzu 4bd1t-swapped 96 suburban

    Title says it all. I just bought this rig. Had convinced the wife to let me buy an imported RHD diesel Mitsubishi Pajero. Then this popped up. The guy I bought it from had the job done at a diesel shop a couple towns over. And had $15k in receipts for the work. I am impressed after looking it...

    MazdaBishi Take 2

    Last spring I started and finished my Mitsubishi 4d55 swap into my 91 Mazda b2600i 4x4. After racking up 12000 miles(on a motor that already had 225k and more blow-by than I wanted) I lost my #3 piston and\or rings. Not sure which died first. I spoke with "the west coast 4d56 specialist" in...

    I have a disease...

    https://portland.craigslist.org/yam/pts/d/4bd1t-4bd2t-isuzu-diesel-ford-adapter/6877878497.html Saw this on CL today. And I really want this set. But I do not have the bandwidth nor depth in my wallet to start a project... I've been driving my MazdaBishi since I finished it and have logged...

    Stuck injectors

    So besides my MazdaBishi swap, I drive a 1985 Jeep Cherokee with the rare(in the US, anyways) Renault 2.1 Turbo Diesel in it. I have put a little over 10k on it since making it my daily driver last June. For most of those miles, I was plagued by what sounded like an exhaust leak coming from...

    Possible dumb question...

    So... I'm fairly new to the diesel scene. Well, the turbo diesel scene. I used to drive old vw rabbits and dashers with the 1.6 na diesel motors. I was given a 1985 Jeep Cherokee with the Renault 2.1td in it about 4 years ago. I let it sit in my field for 3 years, and last spring finally got it...

    My current obsession... 1991\85 MazdaBishi

    So I bought this pickup in November 2018. Immediately realized it needed a new head gasket. Found out it really had a cracked head... As I was doing forum cruising, I kept coming across a particular build thread(across a few forums) where a Mitsubishi 4d55 was placed in one of these. Turns...

    New member here, with some odd stuff

    New guy here. Here's my daily, a 1985 Jeep Cherokee with the Renault 2.1 turbo diesel. I've learned a lot about this motor in last year on the road with it. Currently working on a diesel conversion in my 1991 Mazda B2600i 4x4. I'm putting a Mitsubishi 4d55t engine from a 1985 Dodge Ram 50 in...
