2.7 drivers

[JeanLuke]

Been doing a bit of reading and I think this matter needs a caution flag. The increased boost usually results in an increased EGT. The 2.7 CRD engine has no EGT monitoring. Hence, without knowing it, the turbine life could be greatly reduced.

If you do the Tillix valve, I would think that an exhaust pirometer should also be installed.

Yes you are probably right. Glad you did your own research as well.

Anyone have a part # for rear uni on these things. Mine is sounding very sad now.

Rear shaft? Anything matching 1310. See https://www.rockauto.com/en/catalog/...sal+joint,2392

Edit: wrong link. See https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo...952&cc=1420771

Possibly. There are heaps of them. Might try Bearing Wholesalers in baysy tomorrow.
Always been good in the past.
Thankyou.

$23 Ford Falcon uni. You gotta be taking the piss. Can't be that easy. Not with a bloody Jeep. Toyo part # K5-13XR.
The crap that looks like gunpowder used to be the needle rollers. Lol.

.

It's the other way around in a diesel. Excess fuel or lack of air leads to increased EGT.

The main issue I have with the Tillix valve is that there is no reference on engine load. Vane control is done based on calculated engine load, current boost level and engine speed. That's why you see it jump up and down quickly, the ECU reacts to changes in all those parameters.
