Re: Pajero Mk1 Tourer build-up
Looks great!

One of your questions was whether 1989/90 TDs had computers.
Answer is "No".
Wire the starter from the ignition through a relay.
Remember to wire the cut-off solenoid on the fuel pump.
The rest of the wiring is very basic and simple.

thanks for the answer, I got that all sorted out. I have the starter turning using the key with the petrol wiring harness. and actually will be able to get the selenoid to click on the fuel switch via factory harness too. since the ignition switch sends a12v power when the key is on. should work.

Will be running this weekend, video of start up will be included!!!

Re: Pajero Mk1 Tourer build-up
Sorry for the lack of updates, I needed a week off jsut to catch up on sleep. LOL.

Well here is a photo of her all back together.. well almost.
I still have a list of items to sort out

Rear driveshaft - is at the shop getting a new flange put on along with balancing and new universals. dropped it off today actually. so hopefully done for the weekend. I thought I moved past the whole FWD stage... LOL
Wiring: I have all required tools to cut wires and solder them into the factory location.
*I am on the hunt for a 89/90 Pajero wiring harness diagram , let me know if you have one.*
Tuning - it is still not running correct, I have included a start up video so you can hear what is going on. idles like <censored>, rough. missing. have double checked the timing. could it still be off?
I have also bled the lines and #3 is always putting out a misty foam and the engine rpm doesnt change, bad injector? 1,2 and 4 when the lines are cracked the engine damn near dies.

any help would be greatly appreciated as I am in a bit of a rut. diesels are new to me and I am on one hell of a learning curve.

Moving under its own power: and looking rather badass I may add...

Start up video:

And a few more goodies arrived:
my gps receiver. getting a netbook, with 10" screen and ozi explorer for mapping software. and will make a bracket for it to sit off the dash.

Thermostat finally arrived:
Image

And the big ticket item, long range fuel tank #1
132L vs factory 92L with no lost clearance.

A few flaws though, some welds have porosity and pinholes, along with some cold lap. its hold pressure according to the manufacturer, but honestly, I am not impressed. as it may hold pressure sitting still but after 1000km's of corrugations I am sure that those fail points will fail, leaving me stranded with no fuel. I have tried to contact the company who keeps telling me they will call back but never do... I am not impressed, tank is covered in weld spatter too. I am going to get them to give me a ro for getting it repaired and will reweld the main seals myself. then I can at least trust the welds. Not impressed at all with the customer service after dropping 950 bucks..and yet most companies here wonder why people order from china and the states.. "but what about customer service?" well... I am not getting it here, so what does it matter where I order my parts from..

Attached.

It does not cover the diesel models though (being from USA! :( )

The rest should be similar / identical.

I attach the Glow System for the Gen 2, which should be very similar.

Re: Pajero Mk1 Tourer build-up
Thanks!

I will do some wiring over the nights this week, as the woman is gone for a month back to canada. so with a month to kill there should be some good progress.

I found out that there is fine tuning on the timing by turning the pump. will do a bit of research on that and hope it solves the issue.

Re: Pajero Mk1 Tourer build-up
thumbs up for not skipping corners. You'll love it once done and the enjoyment of driving a vehicle without the worry of a cut corner that may bite you is truly an awesome experience. Been there done that and it was working beautifully until I sold it.

Although it broke my heart when I saw it the other day and the new owner is trashing it. Bumps and broken lights etc. :cry:
