provided the 15J isn't the turbo, it ortta work, I reckon. The turbo might
or might not use the same pump, can't say I've ever looked.

if it's for some variety of 2.5 NAD, then the worst that might happen is it
needs retuning. At the end of the day, an injector pump for a normal diesel
is pretty much of a muchness, provided it has the right number of cylinders
and is of the same capacity. The 1.9 peugeoput/citroen engine, for example,
was fitted with either bosch or lucas/CAV and they appear to be
interchangeable.

you'll probably find 15J is the 2.5 from he sherpa...hmmm...thinks...I have
a sherpa book somewhere... ah. Bugger. Petrol ones only.

aha. good ol' google. 14J and 15J are freight rover versions of the
engine. 16J is forklifts, apparently
