Yes and no. I have seen them on ebay, about £ 100,-. They usaly do not send to Norway.

I'll see if I can open up the front and check if the camshaft setting is still correct. It must be next spring. I do not want to do a bigger job now when the evenings get shorter, colder and darker. Today the cutting bar head on my motor mower broke and I had to mend it, and short after then...

Is it you Stretch on th picture? You look like my neighbor who makes round balls for me. It's your car in th background I presume. I fully agree that Land Rover (generally English cars from the 70-ties) is some crap. I have an 1975 LVB station wagon. It's easy to fix thats the best with it. I...

Yes, that's right, and a timing tool will compensate for all that and give a proper tuning.

I have adjusted to 22 degrees and it helped. The car goes a lot better. "The green bible" Repair Oreration manual says that you set the MS67B to 22 degrees. I do not hav the tool but tried the angle. It's bad that the manual does not tell the angle, but just how to use the two timing tols. To...

I have made a tool of a broken shaft, a bolt and a bit of plexiglas. It was not that hard, but the problem is the angle I asked about in my first post. jamesmartin replied that the angle is 20 degrees, but it is not. I adjusted to 20 degrees, and the car barely ran up a small hillside. I had to...

Thank you jamesmartin. I will be able to make such a gauge. It is not easy to figure out such details. The MS67B gauge must have a different zero point because it should be set to 22 degrees. Last night, I also looked for sensors or transducers to measure the pressure in the diesel pipes. Many...

Interesting project. Possibly I should think of something like this instead of a mechanical gauge. I like electronics so I can make something from scratch.

Hwat kind of sensor will you use?

I do not think I fully understand you. I will make a tool and mount a pointer on the shaft. The pointer should point to the timing pointers on the engine block. Do you say that the angle between the line on the photo on the wide tooth and the arrow pointing towards the timing pointer should be...

It is difficult and expensive to get a "Timing Gauge" for a 2.25 S3 diesel. There are several options, a used original 605863 or an MS67B, or a new from http://www.dingocroft.co.uk/acatalog/Engine_tools1-p2.html. I want to make one myself. Is there anyone who knows exactly the angle between...
