Michael, 1,2,&4 lights will cause poor pickup response when cold, Poor Quick revving response, and not smooth at startup when cold. Throttle sensor either disconnected, open circuit or shorted. Cheers  Henry

Yep, measures the water temp, located in the head , resistance across the terminals should decrease as the temp rises, probably about 1-1.65K at 35C  .25-.36K at 80C

Best of my knowledge is lamps 2 & 3 mean TW sensor problem, either disconnected or open circuit in the wiring. Symptoms would be Difficult to start when cold and idle speed too high when warming up.  Henry

Forgot to mention, No 1 on mine (T11) is just in front of the right hand cap hold down clip when viewed from the front. Did you have it running in that car before the rebuild?  Henry

Set No 1 piston at TDC compression stroke, TDC mark on flywheel will be visible through timing hole, timing mark on front of pulley (take top plastic cover off) should line up with arrow on head. This means the valve timing is right. Lift the distributor out, Align the index marks on the distributor...

Can anyone tell me if the T1 and T11 computers are interchangeable.  Henry

Cab Fan,  you will find an idle speed adjusting screw on the drivers side end of the throttle shaft, phillips head with a cup type surround on the head, which points foreward. you should be able to wind this in a bit and keep it idling. Would suggest you then check the timing, and if you finish up w...

Forgot to put in the last post, others have tried to find fixers in Brisbane and Sydney without success but feel free to try.

There seems to be few that are having problems with the vac advance so will try to put it into perspective for you. There are two spark advance systems, centrifugal and vacuum. The centrifugal is a mechanical system in the lower part of the distributor that works with engine revs and advances the ce...

Fuel pressure can be checked by attaching a gauge to the top of the fuel filter, will take a workshop about 5 minutes. Mine did the old up and down idle thing, I think when the diaphram goes it upsets the mixture. You can adjust something to fix that, will take a photo tomorrow to show you where if ...

Digital speedo and clock normally dim when you turn the lights on, sounds like it's something in this circuit if they still work during the day.  Henry

UNIFILTER do a foam element.  UT 275 155  will cost you about $57. Go to http://www.uniflow.com.au    It's worth it just to see a part listed for these little monsters.  Henry

Gearbox oil, City Pro. 2.3Litres SE or SF grade. -20deg to +40deg  20W-40 or 10W-40  Henry

Hey, found it!!  It was a Toyota Hilux with a 22 R1 engine of 2.4 litres.   I'm not saying this is a suitable replacement at this stage because I have not been able to check it yet, but it am saying that it looks the same, the fitting sleeve looks the same size, and it is definately worth checking o...

DR86, sounds like you have more than a vac canister problem. I had mine re-built by a mob in Melbourne and ran without it for over a week. Didn't do any of the things you are talking about. In fact, with normal driving, didn't miss it a bit. You still have your centrifugal advance working so you wil...
