4BD1T - what does stalling mean?
It means you've run out of fuel, couldn't be anything else.Quote:

I've seen a IIa with the 4 cyl petrol engine do something just as good as that.Quote:

His technique for changing down was to wait until it was almost stalling and then select the next lower gear. At the speeds he was doing and the revs the engine was doing, no double declutching was necessary to silently select second.
On one occasion as the vehicle was on the verge of stalling in third gear, he slowly moved the gear lever in the general direction of second gear. Somehow he missed second gear and finished up in fourth.
Since the engine was close to stalling in third, you can imagine the sort of revs it was doing in fourth.
When the speed in fourth had built up to something approaching walking pace, he went through his usual routine of changing to third (thinking he was choosing a higher gear) and at about a very slow jog, he selected fourth.
if a 4 cylinder 2.25 litre petrol engine can do that, imagine how impressive the 2.25 litre diesel must have been. :)

My vote's for the 300 Tdi, sure it's a bit underpowered down low, also a bit underpowered at high revs, the timing belt needs lovin every couple years (at least I get the radiator rodded at the same time) but it's simple. A couple of weeks ago on our CSR trip, just after well 49, the alternator seized the pulley end bearing and the casing broke as we attempted to fix it. The aircon belt fits around the crank, cooling fan, waterpump and reversed around the steer pump. We did 500 km in 5 days like that, try doing that in your fancy Td5 or Puma, in fact I don't even think you could do that in an Isuzu?
