I need a hug

Hi Johnny
Did it match your top hose size or did you need adapters?

MK Patrol actually (same shape as MQ) I had one. Some of the GU or whatever it was after the MK had leafs, not all were coil but was the start of the coils for Nissan. To be specific the utes still came with leaf as well.

It is a shame that the TD5 gets knocked so much as it is a fantastic power house for it's 2.5 litre capacity.

Like all small deisel engines it needs a pile of turbo boost to make it go properly. I would like to know what the comparison size of a conventional deisel is when the TD5 is on at 16 psi boost. I guesstamate about 5 litres?

I owned a 2.8TD Nissan GQ Patrol before it which I traded in on the Discovery II. It had a lot of knockers as well but it never let me down ever. The TD5 to date has always got me home or where I was going.

When a TD5 is running well with no problems it is a fun machine to drive. Any problems with boost, EGR or fuel delivery and you will know it in a big hurry but is that not what you want to know any way? :)

A TDV6 with a 6 speed auto would be nice though..Hmmmmm
