PERKINS PROBLEMS
barmiebrumie:
Hi, i have a 3.9 in my Rangie, it also has one of them flame thingy's,
A while ago i had problems starting it, found out the starter was worn out, had it reconned & at the same time wired up twin batterys it now turns over faster than most petrol engines :shock: ,
The flame start on mine glows for about 5 seconds & then lets some fuel through & sets alight & is drawn in to the manifold, fires up a treat, just bought two new flame/glow thingy's of ebay only £10 each :lol: , fitted one in & one for spare :wink: ,
Mine is also on a push button.
Hope this helps John.

That is the million pound question everyone thinks it is a mazda/perkins one of the first that they prouduced. The diesel garage i use say its a normal perkins but are un sure if its a 3l or 3.8 as it came out of a forklifter we think log book says 3l and the engine number is just 5 numbers with nothing else on the engine anywere so its is a bit of puzzler all i now is it gos like s**t off a shovel compared to other diesels. So if anyone out there wants to come and have a look at it please feel free to :shock:
Miniman:
Can you get a picture of it. Also if its a 4203 3.3L or a 4236 3.9L it will have the engine No under the injector pump out of sight. Very hard to see. Get a photo of it and we can all have a look.
