What engine do I have?


Recommended Posts

Military engines were 11j and have several minor differences to their civilian counterparts. Things like different valve guides, different exhaust valves and pistons. There is a parts list dedicated to the components which differed on the military models

Ooh. The others have said definitively it's a 12j. What are your thoughts based upon the pictures?

As I understand it, the Mod kept the 2.5 NA diesel until the introduction of the 300Tdi. They didn't have the 19J turbo diesel nor the 200Tdi. I think Land Rover did use parts they had from production 19J engines after discontinuation such as blocks, pistons and valves. These engines for the MoD were either 11J or 13J - I don't know the difference. One quick visual check you could do is to look on the engine block near the dip stick tube and see if there is a blanked off oil return which would be for a turbo fitted to a 19J.
