The VVC is a great engine, torquy and powerfull and now Emerald can control the VVC you can have direct to head throttle bodies (DHTB). The VVC suffer from the same problem as the other K, the head gasket as been changed for a better one and the cam belts (2 of them) has been changed. The top can suffer from oil starvation, there is different way to solve this problem. The VVC in my 21, is dry sumped and at 35k+ and it's sweet as a dream Jack Emily, The Very Yellow 21

I have been looking for some technical information about the my pickup, a Hilux 2.5 diesel D4D, like a Haynes manual or a workshop manual. And my searches haven’t not been fruitful. ☹️ Does any one knows were this knowledge is hidden? Thank for your help Jack Emily, The Very Yellow 21

Cheers Steve YHM Grant! Jack Emily, The Very Yellow 21

Thank you Gentlemen It does make sense now. Grant, are your Quadoptics of the newer type as discribe by Steve? If yes, I might be interested Jack Emily, The Very Yellow 21

Steve, I'm a bit confuse by what you are saying about rusting and the Wypac Quadoptic. If they have a glass reinforced polyester resin moulded reflector that is vacuum aluminised, will the reflector rust? If I want to have no more problem with rust, do I need to get the brass one? I have the CIBIE unit fitted but I'm not sure what the reflector is made out of. Thank for your help Jack Emily, The Very Yellow 21

Yes the round one. You don't have some picture of the back of it? Or a spare old one? I don't realy want to buy a set if I cannot fit them. Jack Emily, The Very Yellow 21

Hi I'm looking into changing the headlight of my 21 (rust problem ) If the headlights of a land rover do not rust, they shouldn't rust on my car. I believe the diameter of the headlight is 7", what I don’t know if it will fit on my car. Do someone as some mounting drawing for it attachment/fitting or a spare one I could borrow? Thanks for your help Jack Emily, The Very Yellow 21

Sorry Tiddy needed to sort important stuff before the cosmetic. Wil you accept £15 including delivery? Jack Emily, The Very Yellow 21

Does it means the Faulken have a better or worse load index than the Pilots? Jack Emily, The Very Yellow 21

I have changed my tyre from Michelin Pilots 205/45 R16 83V to Faulken 205/50 R16 87V I would like to know the meaning of 83 and 87, is it the compound type? Jack Emily, The Very Yellow 21

Thank gentlemen for your advice I've been talking to Clive from Aryliam and he is going to drill it out and fit an helicoil kit. Thank again Jack Emily, The Very Yellow 21

Graham thank you for the information I have been reading the technical spec of the 7M91 EXHAUST PASTE & Hi Temp Cement with great care. The worry I have is that the stud will breack loose if I use the 7M91. Have you used this product in a similar application? I'll try to contact Holdtite tomorow Jack Emily, The Very Yellow 21

😬Thank a lot batteredoldsupersport I'm a much happier man now Jack Emily, The Very Yellow 21

I’m changing from bolts to studs, to attach the exhaust manifold to the block , because there is one thread damaged, the end one at the end of the engine near cylinder number 4. The damage to the tread is such that I can feel it slipped when I trying to tighten it to the same setting as the 4 other one (hand tight). To solve this problem I was going to use some threadlocker, Loctite 270, which is vibration proof, to lock the studs in place. Before doing so I had the idea of checking the technical spec of it and it says it will withstand temperature up to 250C. So my questions are: What temperature the block goes up too? Does a high temperature threadlocker exist? What are my other option? (will have to be done by me) Thank for your help Jack Edited by - jackb_ms on 18 Jan 2005 13:49:48
