Did you get the bellhousing on ebay? I saw one listed for the D24/D24T engines but I think it was for the M90 transmission?

Sounds OK for a cold start.

Sounds fairly good fora cold start with a broken warmup actuator.

Drive it around today, up to 55mph. Starting issues (even when warm) persist, idle smoke stops after it's been driven for a moment, and I have a leaky injector. Third from the belt (#4?)

Drove it up to 55mph today...
Leaky injector (third from belt, #4?)... still has trouble restarting even after just 5 minutes... not sure if it's leaky injector or pump. No idea how this car SHOULD drive or accelerate but it is liveable, so long as I didn't go above 65. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cNZrNcrcJWI

I don't know what to do now.... For those who don't know I have the engine on a stand and intend to get it bored out before I reassemble (aiming for Dec 1 to order .50mm overbore pistons, once they arrive I will send them and the block off to a lock machinist to do the work). Head appears to be in OK shape (no cracks). I've acquired a turbo (I've completely lost my mind)....and it of course needs to be rebuilt. I pickup my injectors from the diesel shop this week, 4 of the 6 required rebuilding. Shop can also do turbos....lucky me. I do have an exhaust manifold for the turbo, and am looking at intercooler options. Rambling... can I use the remote oil filter/oil cooler off a standard turbo redblock work? I read that the redblock can use the diesel flters ... so I don't see why that wouldn't work... how critical is oil cooling (oil to air) on turbo cars? I know the factory D24T had one. My car was an automatic, my radiator has the connectors for the ATF to be cooled in the radiator... could/should I use this for the oil cooler? Too much strain on the pump? I imagine it would add a few qts of oil to the system... perhaps a smaller OTA cooler located on the drivers side is a wiser move...? I read that I can put a T fitting into the oil pressure sending unit and route the "oiling" line to the turbo from that. Thoughts? I realize I'm a bit ahead of myself given I have a stripped down block right now... but I'd like to get as much together as possible. My short list now includes: Flywheel Bell housing Sanity

A few people have run the turbo motors without the oil cooler and seen reasonable results, using synthetic which has higher heat tolerance they've done OK as long as they didn't try to push the motor too hard. If bigger-than-stock power numbers are what you have in mind, some kind of oil cooling will be a good idea (as on anything with piston squirters and a turbo -- those two things add a lot of heat to the lubricant). The redblock sandwich plate is compatible with the D24T filter and flange, but I don't know whether there is room to stack those up in the stock D24 filter location on a 240, the D24T in the 700 series uses an extension piece that relocates the filter up front at an angle, with a longer threaded snout that makes room for the stock D24T cooler sandwich plate (and also provides the oil feed port for the turbo). Your easiest option may be to find one of those if you're doing the +T and + oil cooler program, since it solves multiple problems with one bolt-on part. The stock D24T cooler is the usual VW oil-to-water cooler (which probably spends more time actually acting as an oil *heater* -- not necessarily a bad thing). The redblock sandwich plate can replace it directly, then you can put a cooler core and make up hoses, I've seen a couple TD motors that had this done and it worked out nicely.

Good to know...thanks! Just want 120-130hp, tops, not seeking crazy numbers. Just improved livability.

Reverse spinning, and only beginning Cummins use the VE push.
Verify push some time to accelerator splines, if it isn't able, deliver it returning to a store. note you can time the push 180 out internal, and it gets really difficult to begin. With the key on, you can convert the motor manually, and observe when petrol leaks from the distribution valves to validate. You can get a 12MM go for the push, but it might not last at great RPMs. cars rent surfers paradise Last edited by MoeTell; 12-07-2012 at 07:48 PM. |
