Yeah I've seen that one thanks Cambo. It's a cool site.
Crnkin yeah this was BP too! I didn't keep the filter so I couldn't check. Stuff driving for 4 and a half hours with a stinky diesel filter...

Well I took the truck down to Taranaki this week. The thing has a problem!
Heading up some of the really steep hill/passing lanes it just dropped all of it's power. Then the check engine light...
A couple of grand a month?!? $500 a week? The only V8 I've driven for an extended period of time was a 5.0 commodore and that didn't even come CLOSE to that kind of gas, and I drive about 120km a...
My old man just priced up some mud tyres for his surf. $320 each D: Guess I better shop around a bit!
I just about got myself stuck on one of the farms I shoot on last weekend. Road tyres don't do...
Good to see you're getting yours dirty Burt. That's a nice truck. I just about got mine stuck on Saturday night because I still have the road tyres on it (I haven't picked up my mud tyres from the...
Cheers mate. I'll have a chat with you next time you're up at the range (been a while since I've seen you up there). I've just serviced it myself (just basic oil filter, oil change and air filter)...
I just took her up the Bombays... the truck I mean.
It'll still accelerate in top gear all the way up. She's got some grunt. I'm getting a set of bull bars (just the front nudge bar, not serious...
I took my mates safari (4.2 not the 2.8 turbo) on my last goat shooting trip. That thing is a monster. That 4.2 is an indestructible truck engine. It was surprisingly economical too. As you said,...
Thanks for the tips. As I said the old man is a sparky so most of this should be easy to get done. The overheating seems to be a reoccurring comment. Better put a decent temperature gauge On my list...
Yeah my old man said the older 2.4's are bad for that (used to have one years ago). Apparently the 3.0 is a very solid engine. He is a sparky and he loves his Toyotas as he doesn't have to do shit to...
I'm really surprised with the power. The thing is actually pretty quick.
I've been driving terrano's, mistrals, safaris and surfs and the 3.0L turbo in the surf is far better than the turbo 2.7...
Hey guys,
I've been in the market for a 4x4 for a while. The Toyota's were what I was after but the prices were so high. All the trucks I've been looking at lately were shitters.
Today I finally...
