Hey all,
This is my first post on here after a lot of reading so take it easy on me!!!
Im after some help from you guys with my project down here in australia and seen as how its about the ve ip i thought this was the best place to post it
Im building up a 2001 nissan patrol wagon with a 4.2l 6 cylinder diesel, kinda like a mini cummins and i wanna have a crack at building my own pump, now im a mechanic by trade but not a diesel specialist so i know a bit about what im doing,
Ive read as much a i can on here, and cummins forum and the vw sites for pump info so no that brings me to you guys
The pump my motor runs is the same type of ve as yours except it only runs a 10mm r/h and i wanna throw a 12mm in it as the motor is being pumped up a fair bit, the pump shops down here charge $3000 plus to do these mods which is rediculous
Sooooo.... (im getting there, bear with me!!)
Im after a pump with a 12mm h/r i can strip and use the parts in mine, is there any one on here that has a cheap bone yard pump they would be interested in selling me and shipping to aus, obviously ill pay all cost, ( pay pal is easy for me but can work with who ever to sort out what there comfortable with)
the plan is to use the r/h from the cummins pump, my cam plate to make it work, and if they are the same size probably a bd fuel pin and i guess any other mods i can find on here or what ever you guys tell me i should or shouldnt do
Cheaper the better incase it goes belly up on me, and one with the boost compenstaor/ diaphragm on the top plate would be even better but not important as thats something i can get down here easier that the r/h
thats it, im done, if any one can help out i would be forever in your debt and buy you a beer if you ever land in aussie soil
either pm me or reply here or my email is
