Late model 4jb1 into 90 jackaroo
Re: Late model 4jb1 into 90 jackaroo
probably cheaper to buy whole kit plus you then know you have no bad hoses
Re: Late model 4jb1 into 90 jackaroo
Well the swap is all done and running well. Swapped over a heap of parts including oil cooler, turbo (rotated but no IC) and manifold, engine mounts, all the external coolant pipes, compressor, oil sensor and accelerator cable bracket and a few other bits and bobs. The pump was a little different with smaller return line and some fuel line arrangements but everything plugged in accordingly with a couple of leftover plugs due to the original CSD. Engine a bit stronger and revs to 4000 more easily. Idles on 900-1000 atm, because I put the FIAD on which needs to be adjusted some how because its restricting the acc cable to extend a little more. Still got to work out why my boost gauge aint responding as well. Also there seems to be another rocker breather line going to the dip stick. Would I still need my catch can with this in place?
Re: Late model 4jb1 into 90 jackaroo
good to hear. Whats FIAd? The extra drain line only helps the tappet cover drain quicker. Ive only ever seen that on 4jg2 engines but as your is a similar vintage it makes sense. Still use the catch can if the engine has any fumes. Ive never used one but my 89 bighorn only had 240k on it when tinworm got too much and my 94 is still under 250k. No measurable oil consumption so no need for the catch can

FIAD. Fast idle actuator device. Ill keep the catch can on for now until further notice. Also got to test the oil pressure. It reads 3kg at start up. Hangs around 1-2kg during regular driving and sits just above 0kg when idling at full operating temp. This seems to be characteristic of the old motor so need to confirm with a new gauge setup as a sender unit cost as much as a vdo oil pressure kit.
