Hey all, this job is my last "to do" of 2013 so I hope I can get it resolved here. So when you unscrew the Auto free hub cap on your front wheel you will see a splined shaft about 1.5" in diameter. On the end of this drive shaft is a lockring. My lockring came off somehow and I tried ...

Thanks for the reply's it started after trying it half a dozen times. Weird since it wasn't cranking at all then it just fired up. I really hope this was just a one time thing but I cleaned the battery terminals anyway. I'm sure an alternator/battery replacement is in my future as I continue my rest...

Hey All, Since purchasing my 1990 L300 a few months ago its been a great reliable vehicle. But today when i went to start it, glow plugs clicked and dash light came on normally. Turned the key and no cranking but I did get more glow plug like clicking, Checked my battery voltage and they are at 11.5...

Mine is broken in 2. Anyone have a spare 4wd shaft cross joint? or a 4wd shaft I can butcher one out of?

Cheers all.

Hey all, I'm loving my van and the help I've been receiving on this forum. My next issue is when I'm driving the van seems to wanna climb in revs and won't shift till I let off the gas a bit. Its an automatic transmission. I'm mostly noticing this going from 2nd-3rd when I'm on a slight grade. Chris...

Rattlenbang, thanks.

Well my first costly error. I guess I'll have 2 alternator belts for emergencies.

What part # did you use by chance?

Hey all, I recently did an alternator belt replacement, everything seemed to be running smooth. Bad squeak was gone and I felt like I was good to go. I only put about 50km of driving in before I checked the belts, reason being I heard a little squeak starting. The alternator belts had so much slack ...

Looking for one of these covers:





Will gladly pay for shipping...

Thanks

I've used the POR-15 fuel tank sealing kit when I was restoring my motorcycle and it worked wonders.

But how bad is the inside of our Delica diesel tanks?

So I'll be replacing my fuel filter but am thinking about doing a tank clean and re-line. Any thoughts?

Cheers

Hey all, I've got a bad clunk in the front end and I'm sure its associated with this: http://i734.photobucket.com/albums/ww349/nagasawamike/photo1_zpsbc4b4e10.jpg You can see the bolt separation and I can literally shake this piece. Worn same on both sides. I'm trying to find the OEM part # but I do...

Thanks for the help all! I took the van to CVI for a pre purchase inspection. It needs a bit of work but I'm happy I can do most of it on my own. I'm going to buy it for a fair price that reflects the work that needs to be done. The van has some flaws but I'm glad I can have something to drive while...

Hey all, I have an opportunity to purchase a 1990 L300 Starwagon Exceed 4x4 diesel 2.5L turbo with an automatic transmission. Crystal Lite roof model with shades and sliding rear passenger windows. Moonroof, brush bar, winch, alloy wheels, turbo gauge, fog lights, AC, and ignition timer. The seller ...

Long time lover of these vehicles. I'm not a proud owner of one yet... I like to do my research on a vehicle before taking over the keys, thats why I'm here!

Cheers
