<p>I've found a print shop that can reproduce the engine bay decals for the SD33T. I've ordered a set and the quality is good. Let me know if there is interest and I'll post the info.</p>

<p>Unfortunately I've had to swap in a Cummins 4BT. I live in the Denver area now and found myself needing more grunt to make it to the trails up in the Rockies. The engine recently passed smog here in Colorado but had developed oil in the coolant shortly before I swapped it out. I never bothered tracking down the problem because I had already started gathering parts for the swap. Other than the leak the engine ran great and I used it as a daily driver for a while.</p>

<p>The T-19 was professionally overhauled about 3 years ago with new bearings and seals. Works great. I can sell it with the engine or separately. The bull gear is gone though. I also have a 2WD T-19 if that would be useful for anyone.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Obviously 1000 pounds of diesel engine is a bit hard to move, so you'd need to come pick it up. If it doesn't sell I'll end up parting it out... I'd rather see it help another Diesel Scout get a new lease on life. I'll take best offer.</p>

<p>hi, I'm getting close to having my rig on the road, been doing brakes/rotors cylinders etc, and looked at the missing hose from the booster to the altinator, and realized that the vacuum pump is missing too, So this might be a very good time to hydra boost it. There was a really good write up that I thought was Eldons but I cant find it, I'm trying to get a parts list for U Pull It, we have several yards in oregon. The power steering pump on my rig has no belt and is unknown so Im thinking…</p>
<p>hi, I'm getting close to having my rig on the road, been doing brakes/rotors cylinders etc, and looked at the missing hose from the booster to the altinator, and realized that the vacuum pump is missing too, So this might be a very good time to hydra boost it. There was a really good write up that I thought was Eldons but I cant find it, I'm trying to get a parts list for U Pull It, we have several yards in oregon. The power steering pump on my rig has no belt and is unknown so Im thinking i might as well replace it in the process with a compatible one that has the third hose fitting ande was looking for the model that was used in the write up, the really great write up. so if anyone knows which models have which parts to pick off of I'd really appreciate any wisdom. thanks</p>
<p></p> Oil Filtertag:dieselscout.ning.com,2011-10-09:718234:Topic:88832011-10-09T06:34:56.877ZEldon McFarlinghttp://dieselscout.ning.com/profile/ihdiesel
<p>It is time for the first oil change on the truck. Standard SD33T with a canister filter. I found a few threads here and there about finding the correct filter and what to do once you've got it. I figured that this, combined with the old filter setup would be plenty.</p>
<p>Of course the old filter is different, with different o-rings. The new filter, which everyone I can find (local garage, Wix website, and multiple threads) agrees is the correct one, comes with 4 o-rings (pictured below).…</p>

<p>Of course the old filter is different, with different o-rings. The new filter, which everyone I can find (local garage, Wix website, and multiple threads) agrees is the correct one, comes with 4 o-rings (pictured below). One of the smallest seems to fit the drain plug, the medium sized fits the bolt, but the biggest o-ring is too big for the mating surface to the engine block. Along with this is an alum. washer that was at the head of the bolt, a copper washer and the spring.</p>
<p><a target="_self" href="http://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/88853312?profile=original">PA080732.JPG</a></p>
<p>What combination do I need to keep the oil in the truck, and keep unfiltered oil from working its way around the filter? And if this is the correct oil filter, why is the o-ring too big? The old mating surface o-ring is smaller and flatter than the new one. It is still in place and is still in good condition.</p>
<p>The pictures below show the puzzle pieces and both sides of the filter. Any help would be greatly appreciated.</p>

I need to find a voltage regulator for my 1980 scout traveler turbodiesel I am rebuilding, the prevous owner removed it and could not tell me how and to get one. I need help, if someone could inform me on the specs and where I could find one would be great.

Wow I love the interweb. I mean how else could people interested in such a small portion of a nitch like 30 year old 4x4's with a rare Japanese diesel engine ever come together.<br />
<br />
I have a 78 Traveler with a stock 345, 727 with a low gear set, 4inch Triangle springs, and 33's<br />
<br />
My new scout is a 77 Terra diesel. its getting dana60's F&R. with 54/63" chevy springs. H1 wheels, Goodyear 37"<br />
<br />
My scout diesel engine will be looking for a good home soon if anyone needs an complete engine.

I have a sd33t and recently replaced the thermostat housing. In the old one there were 3 wires, 1 for the gage and 2 for the EGR. On the new one it has 4, 2 each for the gage and the EGR. Any idea how to convert the 2 for the gage to the 1 wire that is there?

Hello all! I've inherited a rather large hole in the side of the block of my SD33.<br />
<br />
After much consernation, I plan to just plug a whole new (to me) running engine in.<br />
<br />
I'm systematically going to as many websites as I can to increase my chances.<br />
<br />
Please ask around and let me know!<br />
