    2.5 and 2.5TD injectors

    I must admit, I had looked on the net and seen that you can buy a set of injectors and they fitted both 2.5NA and 2.5TD so I was thought Id be safe changing them, the only other thing I thought i need to do is check the valve clearence, as Im sure the previous owners wouldnt have had them...

    Tracker's are ok If the dont find the unit, and then they only have a slim chance of recovery, we used to fit these to our plant, and over 12 od years we were fitting them I could count on 1 hand the amount of machines fitted with trackers we got back,

    Would You Fit A Turbo & Head to 2.5 N/A

    Someone told me that some of the 300TDI's are a bit soft, and the 200TDI was a better engine more robust? I had a 200 and a 300 in Disco's and I must admit neither gave me any problems,
