Mates on tour, has turned to, Guy in a shed
Hey Sam, hate seeing the old gal looking so sad and stuck in the shed! Such a beast of an 80 that deserves to be out on the tracks. I'm a mechanic that lives just over the victorian border on the NSW side. If you wanted a hand to pull the motor out yourself to save some cash let me know, always willing to help out a fellow Aussie.
Your a legend mate good on ya
Hey mate my boss had similar issue after rebuilding his 80 was constantly blowing head gaskets after some research found that genuine head gaskets are the go. He put on in and never had a drama since
Rough time for you mate. But before you go drop $12k on another engine build I'd reccomend just trying another block. The hz and hdt blocks are pretty much the same. It's the pistons and rods that are different. Hz blocks are dirt cheap to pick up, transfer everything across and see how that holds up. That's a cheaper solution.
But I'd also be hammering the company that originally did the rebuild. The fact that you put all these parts in and it lifted a head seems like it wasn't bolt down correct or the block wasn't machined right. Either way a brand new built motor shouldn't be doing this and engine builders shouldn't be blaming high boost or incorrect driving for a motor popping a head after less than 10k km. They need to be held accountable.
100% I'd be in their faces every week to hold them accountable. They should have definitely had this sorted
Before he spends any money on the engine swapping blocks etc who built the engine needs to be held accountable and pay for the repairs. If it hasn’t somehow done heaps of km there is no reason for them not to repair at their expense. Otherwise time to get onto ACCC. But also I’ll mention you didn’t say in this video how many km since rebuild, how much boost & hp/tq or if they were standard head bolts or upgraded.
Mate I had a Welsh plug leaking at the back of motor. So tried this stuff. Took about 10 minutes it stopped the water from pissing out. I left it in there for 4 years and it never leaked again. Good luck
What boost you running could be lifting heads if so some arp head studs would fix it
Mate i used this on a 93 swb pajero and it got me 8 months of doing everything. As a temp solution to tide you over it worked but you will still need the rebuild. It is also dependent on the size of the gap it need to fill. Cos once my head went i tried a last ditch effort of this again to limp it home annnnnd yer no deal! Haha
Rough go mate. Hopefully it gets sorted out for you soon.
Head gasket repair / sealer is a stop gap method. Youll get a few months out of it then either need to redo it, or have repaired the cause. Im in the same boat, but for oil gallery to outside engine. Im gonna do it again next week and look into getting another engine and rebuild it.
Time for 1hd-ft conversion 😎
Definitely
We bought a suzuki jimny with this stuff in it we had the engine in it reconditioned it fucked up a new head, it blocked a channel in the head and created a hot spot warping it, that shit can get stuck In the radiator and heater core, it's like cancer for cars. Hope you manage to get it up running and reliable
Hey mate I'd be getting a long motor from head exchange in Perth. Never had an issue with there engines our heads there the go to. Might be abit of a wait but will be 100% worth it
I paid 1250 to fix my car overheating. They flushed the radiator, replaced the thermostat & water pump . Still overheats . Run fine . No smoke , no white in the oil . They did a head gasket test at first & said it was ok . Now they’re saying it the head gasket & gave me a bottle of sealant didn’t work yet . Gezz . I paid 850 for the coil presuming the head gasket was ok too . Arghhh
You can buy a BRAND NEW 6bt Cummins for $11500 landed in Aus, could be a good option, rammit conversions will have all the adaptors needed to just drop it in, will absolutely eat a 1hd power wise
they are cheap because cummins is all made in china now
@@darcykeddell4930 still genuine Cummins to their standards
It could be as simple as North Vic Engines not getting the deck height right.
They shouldn't be touching engine's they know nothing about. A proper experienced diesel mechanic thats familiar with that model engine should be rebuilding it.
As a mechanic I hate that stuff
Only tip I’ll give to people who are going to use it is don’t run your heater for several days once you’ve put it in
The heater core is essentially a small radiator and as it’s smaller and the tubes are skinny it’s very easy for them to become blocked with this stuff, radiators can as well but old radiators like in 80s don’t have as thin tubes and are less likely to become blocked
Better off having a blocked radiator than a blocked heater core
Fuck pulling dash’s
Used this stuff in my 6vd1. Had a cracked head and coolant being pushed into the middle passenger side spark plug tube. Was filling the resovoir tank 2-3 times a week. Poured half a bottle of this stuff into the reservoir and the other half into the radiator and it was fixed the next time I drove it
I'm still yet to see how long it lasts
still going strong!?
Not sure what u have or haven’t tried with the 80 but ive used the cheap $10 gasket sealer before with no coolant i took it for a good run and it held for a while. And that what was a blown gasket pushing water in a td42.
I decked my block with a stone and installed a new head and it lasted till the new owner did a snapped crank haha
Yeah the logic is sound with these things, in most of the time they do work for awhile. In your case not at all. Feel you on the front of not having your car… when I had to rebuild mine and decided to do it myself a lot of lost time in the shed but after you get past that it’s quite good to finally be back out on the tracks. Good luck mate, feel your pain… funny you mention beachport, we’re up at the limestone just after the Easter break, will be a sick one 👌
Combustion pressure can reach upwards of 120 bar, chemical welding 🤔, could be snake oil.
What studs are you running? What boost are you running?
It sucks, sorry to hear bud, I'm sure it'll all work out.
genuine head gasket, new head bolts, copper spray on head gasket, if head gasket keeps blowing in the same spot its the head or the block is warped/cracked or bolt holes are damaged, I've used blue devil head gasket repair on a 4runner years ago and i got another 4 years before i needed to rebuild the engine and replace head gasket also with radiator leaks on my 80 series i have used a product called k seal was about 300km from home and rad blew n went to a local shop were i was on holidays was a 2-4week wait on genuine toyota rad n he chucked 2 bottles of k seal in my 80 that old rad lasted 6 more years before i had to replace it. some times that snake oil in a bottle works sometimes it doesn't but the 2 products i have found that work are blue devil and k seal also that nulon and Wynn's main seal stuff works good for seal oil leaks
So how much did ya stuff around to set the tyre to exactly 20psi.
Cause not a hope in hell it happened just with the auto deflator
I use it in my 80 but it seems to be a temporary fix and lasted a couple months and then I put more in but she’s still kicking with it in
Can I just say looking at your head gasket you showed as an example when you've done the head gasket mate did you get a straight edge and check the head wasn't warped? Because if it is, that'd explain the constant replacement, only has to be out a tad and that coolant will make it's way through same with if you don't do coolant changes it becomes acidic I beleive and will also eat away at it. So if you ever take the head off again just make sure.... buy a straight edge in prep and if it's not flat, you can DIY a standing solution (youtube it) if you don't wana take it somewhere to get done or buy a new one. Also you were meant to crack the heater on inside the car.... and you should have reved it a few times when u were doing it initially to cause that gap to widen a tad and suck in that stuff.... I don't think the idle for 15 mins is the go as they claim on the bottle.
How many layers is the gasket? Bigger studs for boost.
I used this in my patrol after using it the car started to overheat when loaded up going up hills, beach driving etc..
ended up just blocking the radiator. Had to replace radiator and overheating stopped and still have the original leak 😂😂
My mate has a rav4 it works for a few mths then he put another bottle in, go by the instructions tho.
Why is there no warranty man??? Surely some sort of coverage for it
I no the feeling my auto in the are 4.8 patrol need the rebuild and I finally have enough money to send it in after so long saving
What the hell man, how is this engine not being fixed under warranty. Hold the engine builders accountable! You paid for a working engine!
Did you get it sorted sam?
8mths I had to wait for my new motor to be installed and delivered back ,
takes a couple of days of dirving.. the stuff works.. I had white smoke coughing and all the things... it will fix it unless your gasket is proper fucked
You need to drain and flush the old coolant out. Then just water with the additive. Should work a treat
The treatment won't set properly over coolant
This one says you don’t need to flush
Just go a 1HZ and use as much of the 1HD-T stuff on it as you can.
Wasn’t that engine an insurance job? I’d be contacting insurance and saying it still not right
I would have taken it more than just 15 minute drives
Reckon if you read the instructions its not meant to be used with coolant
Engine conversion time?
m57 big turbo?
Put a 1fz in it
Same thing happened to my 1hdt it was a cracked head you can buy a brand new head from Toyota for $1700
listening isnt your strong point is it?
@@jp4rks 😂😂😂
Fte time
DynaGrip Metallic Seal-Tite Radiator Stop Leak 250mL, a much better option, works, just follow the instructions, i had the same results as you've had with the Nulon product, my Landrover Discovery 2 is proof that Dynagrip really works, been in the engine now for 12 months and only $12.99
I don’t trust the head gasket in a can. It will block everything. I’ve seen that stuff completely destroy an engine. It sealed the water ports in block and had to get new engine.
Get rid of that 1hz man. Put a 1fz turbo in it. You'll love life
Let me know how you go
You seem like a capable bloke, might be time to learn some spanner swinging and get into it yourself? Learn and save yourself a huge amount of $$...... even if it's just a 1hz block swap
Put a Cummins in it mate
Buddy go see mick at Ms engine's look him up you tube
Bugger
No good man, really shit to happen to u, might have to start an only fan I'll sign up
'promo sm' 💥
Wouldn't trust liquid gaskets. Buy a new block & rebuild it right. Never be a Dodgy Malakas.
P.S. I am not trying to belittle you. I want to see you out on the track with no dramas.
P.S.S. & comb your bloody hair!
If you've paid a business to rebuild it and then this has happened. It's fairly clear it wasn't rebuilt properly and the business is legally responsible and liable. I'd suggest you give them one last chance to refund you or pay for someone else who knows what they're doing to rebuild it. If they don't come to the party. Name and Shame and contact Consumer Affairs.
wait a min ?? again ? didn't it get fixed ?? far out !! goodluck ! 🛻😎🤙📹
