If you don't turn up the fuel, it will run lean and your combustion temp will increase and you will melt a piston. If you get the mixture right then the combustion temp will be higher than N/A, and you will melt a piston.If you overfuel this will also increase combustion temperatures and you will melt a piston. If you change the pistons to ones from a turbo then you can run boost up to maybe 6 or 7 psi and fuel to match, fit an intercooler too and who knows. Its a lot of work but if you have the bits what is there to loose? Good Luck!

Check the prop shaft UJs for wear. Diff wear is normally a deep rumble or whine. It should be easy to check if you just crawl under and grab a hold!!

Put a new fuel filter on it. Cheap diesel especially supermarket stuff has lots of water in it. Could simply be coincidence, but sounds blocked to me. With a diesel if it runs and does not smoke it's most likely fuel.

Hi Went over the Severn Bridge to Wales the other day.Got ready to argue my 90 hardtop was NOT a van and the guy in the booth said no problem, all landies get charged as a car.
