Petrol to diesel

(1/2) > >>

ukmudmaster:
I have a 2 1/4 petrol S3 SWB and I want a diesel! Does the 2.5 N/A diesel fit my gearbox?? the tank has a hole for the return pipe, electics are no problem. I would be grateful for any info,
thanks,
Dave

Dr Neil:
i believe it will, though after playing round Tixover in Stanton Boys i'd be very tempted to fit a 200tdi if you can find one!!!
if you have any questions on fitting the tdi contact Stanton Boy, he'll be glad to try and help/advise you, i'm sure.

Xtremeteam:
ur not getting my tdi unless its very crisp pound notes as ive just finished building it lol

cstokes:
It is quite straight forward to fit either 2.5n/a or 2.5td from a defender or the 200tdi from either a defendr or a disco but the disco engine is alot more difficult to fit because of the turbo location and the exhaust, you will have to remove the battery tray from the chassis to make room for the diesel pump, with the 2.5n/a ot td you can use the series radiator but you will need to loose the viscous coupling, with the tdi you need to try and accomodate the intercooler which can be tricky. other than that it is quite easy as you can use the series mountings and bolt them straight onto the new engine.  If you need any more info just give us a shout.   I fitted a disco 200tdi into my series short wheel base and it now flies.

ep90:
Is the 300 Tdi harder to fit then the 200?  Most of the 200 Tdi's I've seen advertised are high mileage (due the thier age I guess)  Will a 200/300 bolt staight to my 2A box?

Thanks
