@@YdocFrench I can take a look for you. If you are doing a conversion, I would look at the Grumman sailing canoes for resources.

@@haoleboyshow-tos2279 thank you. I have been looking at those as well and found a guy on eBay who makes replica parts. I have the sunfish mast and spars so I’m trying to make that work. I can either get a sunfish sail or mini fish sail 66sf or 80sf and I’d like to have the largest sail possible but within reason. Having an outrigger should allow me to fly a larger sail without capsizing as easily.

@@sadness3out961 I am not familiar with the K03s it appears to be the same, but I can’t say for sure.

@@haoleboyshow-tos2279 thank you for the answer is the ko3s that you rebuilt still working well after all that time ?

@@sadness3out961 Yes, it is still working from what I know, but I don’t own the car anymore. I put about 3000 miles on it before selling

@@davidhenderson7722 I would check to see if the wastegate actuator on the turbo is stuck. They can get really seized

@haoleboyshow-tos2279 cheers for the reply. That was siezed when the turbo was on the original engine. Freed off now. Only thing I ain't changed is the maf

@@davidhenderson7722 Does it cut power when you first start driving it? Mine would do that before going into limp mode and not giving any boost

@@mroberts4847 It is pretty slippery in the snow, but still very capable. Take a look at my other Xterra video. We take it out in some rough snowy conditions.

@@austinmaxi Hey, that’s a great question. I was under the impression that the cam stroke was the same between IDI and DI, but that may just be with the VW stuff. I haven’t actually been brave enough to rebuild this yet so I will check with my piece parts and get back to you.

@@haoleboyshow-tos2279 I have wondered weather the arm, attached to the throttle shaft that the governor spring set is attached to is too short.. a longer one would, I think.. allow the control leavers a bit more range.. (certainly when winding up the max fuel) looking through my parts I have a governor that has a longer arm to it, so I'll give that ago..There's not many people to bounce ideas off these days or mess with old diesels any more so your videos are gold to people that do! I have been blissfully unaware about control leaver throw till i found your video!

@@user-te9op3hj8g You’re right. I was just tempted by the idea of a cheap upgrade to Dana 44s.

@@taisccon Best of luck. It’s a big job but doable.

Cheers Bro

@@r3dkoala Sounds mint. Would love to see how it turns out. Took me a while, but I finally figured out what I needed.

@@trubz2096 Better tires that were aired down would have made a big difference.

They’re kind of a fancy boutique place and they wanted to overhaul it. There probably is something off in the mechanism because it seems to be a little fussy. Will fall out of time with no apparent change except the weather.

@@haoleboyshow-tos2279 i would say study how the mechanism itself is constructed, clean out all the pivot holes with a toothpick or pipe cleaner and put a little bit of fresh oil into it. These old 30 hour American movements are pretty beginner-friendly and will run well with little maintenance

Someone mentioned in the comments that they are individually balanced. I haven’t been able to verify, but you won’t need to worry about alignment if true.

I haven’t made the complete mTDI yet, no.

I used this kit. www.ebay.com/itm/265228820792?chn=ps&norover=1&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-117182-37290-0&mkcid=2&mkscid=101&itemid=265228820792&targetid=1645685073808&device=m&mktype=&googleloc=9005556&poi=&campaignid=16730423415&mkgroupid=135815925780&rlsatarget=pla-1645685073808&abcId=9300841&merchantid=119208944&gbraid=0AAAAAD_QDh-dhCkKv4WlHoiZrhabqjeiJ&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIkbGz8vyD-wIVwvbICh2MnwLVEAQYAiABEgJMQPD_BwE

@@haoleboyshow-tos2279 I have a k03-006 turbo for my ahu tdi I think I'm gonna rebuild it or get a cartridge.

@@infernoking7504 Good luck. The rebuild is easy and cheap enough. I’d recommend that route.

Hey, there’s an idea. I was actually thinking about 3D printing some emblems. I may have to include that.

Please keep in mind I had some trouble with boost control after the filming of this video. But this should be enough to get you moving

I was using the Yanmar L100 manual. It can be found on their website.

Good man. Always had a soft spot for the B5.5 aesthetic. I’ve never had one though, I’m too much of a stick shift hipster.

@@haoleboyshow-tos2279 I'm in N.Ireland so 99% of them are diesel with a manual transmission. It's extremely rare to see a Passat with either a petrol engine or auto gearbox over here. The 2 cars cost me £400 total to buy (around $500) and have been driving them collectively for 7 years. I do know a guy with a B4 Passat GT which needs restoring. I've been trying to buy it off him for years but he wont sell

The estates/wagons were always rare here in the states. I’ve only ever seen one. They’re great cars though I’m keeping mine alive as long as I can.

Do you mean the engine itself, or the throttle plate? Not quite sure what you mean.

​@@haoleboyshow-tos2279 You can Google predator motor plate and see an image of what I mean. Basically what I'm looking for is a plate of steel with pre-drilled holes for this engine so when I mount it it's not crooked and I'm not having chain popping off issues

If you’re looking used, the Silent Diesel style enclosed generators are usually good. The last 2 I got came from those and had starters. I plugged the hour meter from this one in and found it only has 2 hours on it.

Good to know. I’ll keep it in mind for next time

We never had water coming in, but it was very splashy up there and the water was too cold to be getting splashed 😊

I have never bothered to plasti dip or check these engines. The one in this video had 2 hours on it, and the other had 20. Neither showed visible wear so I kept with the factory bearing.

What is the torque setting on the retainer plate please

@@declanveale5849 The crank bearing retaining plate I tightened to 20 ft-lbs.

Something shorter like a sunfish sail would be great. We were really expecting the bridges to be marked.

Yes, the Isuzu trooper uses a 4L30E.

This is an old video. I have been hard at work with Gravely stuff since then. Check some of my other vids.

That is not something I have found. I will take a look though as ring gap will be critical for my plan to add a turbo.

Yes it’s a little light. That mixed with the bumpy back yard made it tough to go fast. The diesel isn’t as heavy as people think since it’s all aluminum. It’s pretty similar to the original Kohler in weight.

Thanks! Stick around, I got more plans for it.

No, I was unable to peel the last stuck piston out of the block.

Maybe in an absolute emergency. If that doesn’t start it then the whole thing will be an icicle.

I was reading off the Yanmar L100 manual. It said .006 and .006. The manual is free online.

@haoleboyshow-tos2279 ok I have the F186 clone in my kipor genset. The kipor tech told me .006 and .008 (they are all the same Chinese clones) but I do see some info saying IN is 0.15mm (.006) and Ex is a range 0.15 to 0.2 (.006 to .008) so I guess the tech gave the upper end of range.. looser is better than too tight I guess.

@@ShorrockPaul Good to know. Is that info available online anywhere? I have only been able to find resources from Yanmars.

Just seen your re assembly vid. Great stuff. Thanks for this

@@ShorrockPaul Glad it was helpful.

Works great. I used it on a tractor, but it should work well on larger karts. It makes like 9hp and 20ft-lbs. as long as it’s not side-by-side big it should be plenty strong.

It’s a Southbend 9” or Model A. Motor under variant. I’m in a similar boat looking for something small but not too small.

@@haoleboyshow-tos2279 Thanks :)

Yes, it definitely helps clear out some of the fumes. Running at a higher RPM also cleans it up even more.

Glad you enjoyed. TBH, this was a pretty tough area for my lightly modded Xterra, but I do have some other off-road adventures posted with this rig.

@@haoleboyshow-tos2279 I'm currently digging through your videos. My dad has an XJ on Dana 44s and 35" tires and I've been everywhere he goes (I run the 31.8's like you). There are definately some places he *could* go with it that I can't at this point, but he's too scared to do that stuff. These Xterra's do mud / snow / rocks so well. I'm running a 2.5" suspension lift and I have high clearence bumbers / rock sliders. Exhaust manifold cracked so thats why I'm doing long tubes. I love this platform.

@@DR-ge8hp I really just got this one because the price was right. I’ve been very impressed with it so far. Unfortunately it looks like a lot of the neglect from the previous owner is catching up with it.

Nope, not necessary

Use RTV copper, that seals well and isn’t temperature sensitive.

No plates if you’re willing to do a little machining, like I showed.

@@haoleboyshow-tos2279 I was thinking about taking the crank to a machine shop and showing your video. Thanks for taking the time to video this.

@@NCWSMFP No worries, hope it turns out great!

My thoughts exactly. It was way better to do myself

I’ve never even heard of it, but it looks like a lot of fun.

@@haoleboyshow-tos2279 where are you from?

@@LiftedXterra28 Buffalo

@haoleboyshow-tos2279 Gotcha! Well another content creator on here by the name of @DIY_AUTO_PHOTO is from New York and makes the trip down to PA for the event. You should link up with him and seriously consider coming to the event to meet up with fellow Xterra owners/enthusiasts.

Thanks!

Sorry, I do not. You should be able to pause and see the colors

Have you 6 cabels to gas pedal?

And have you take all black/yellow to battery? Even from the pump? And what is that you have on switch?

Thanks! I appreciate it.
