Hello Mate, just wondering where your got your service kit from for your Whale Gusher Bilge Pump? I've got a Whale Gusher 25 Bilge Pump an will be looking to do the same🤔

Awesome video DownUnder Projects! Thanks for the great review and feedback 👌

thanks for the info sir

did you put the o-rings on the exchanger? I did, and I cannot put it back because they slide....

thanks for the illustration very well explained.

Hey man, what size bolt was it that you used to secure the canbus?

Hey Legend awesome video👌 replaced mine with some new Sony's, Wow what a difference 👍

That's 100 % absolutely not the proper procedure regarding fuel filter replacement, luck is on your side 😅

Great video, I actually swapped out my eye glass screw driver for the awl from a leatherman rebar. I don't use glasses or sunglasses, but seeing that you are on the water I can see that sunglasses can be quite useful and having an awe that small from scissors would be even more useful as a sewing awl than the rebar awl

I've just been watching your two videos on making the box into deck hatches. Did you do a final fitting video of the hatches? How did you seal the underside, maybe use of gaskets? Great films BTW, thanks.

I’m looking for. your video of the reassembly of this Johnson F - 5B-9 pump. I’m curious becuase I need one and a Yanmar shop here in California told me not to try and rebuild mine because the F - 5B-9 Johnson pump had a special ceramic mechanical seal on the oil side of the pump and a special spring to hold the ceramic bearing at a precise pressure to keep the oil from comnig across to the water side, and the lip seal on the salt water side to keep the raw water out of the oil side. Looks to me like there are ONLY TWO inexpensive lip seals in the F 5B-9 pump. Of course he wants to sell me a brand new $560 US new FB-9 pump! LOL! I wonder… Ceramic mechanical seal? Ever hear of this in a 5 FB-9 pump??? LOL

Lovely rig mate

Great test Mate , hdj79 owner. You seem to run lower rpm than myself, 2800 at 100kph on 285/75. Any change to ratios?

definitely rough as guts ....

Loved it Gilly. One of your best. 😃👍

What an adventure! I don't fancy the next leg much. Great stuff.

good Luck Dave, I,m With you in Spirit ! Harbor Master Den.

Good to see you blokes keeping the fluids up, that sun can get pretty hot. We have something in common Fitzy, we just got back from our boat trip where our first stop was Eden but we didn't get off until we got to Athens six weeks later.

Nice work Gilly

Just joined the channel and into my 45’ Robert’s project - very helpful cheers (and local!)

When you had the bonnet up i noticed there was two heads on the motor gunna fit in well in Tassie...

Good video there, mate. Glad to see the rest of it coming along well. Regards, William.

Awesome video mate. Good info. I’ve got a HDJ100 which is very similar speeds going up that hill as I head down the coast. I was wondering if it was down on power so it’s good to compare. Thanks 😊

I have subscribed first time. Regardless of what you are planning? I am looking forward to this car. Being fully finished completed and fully restored similar type thing. Regards from William.

You two should stick to arranging flowers

Running rich eh? Cool vid. cheers

Looks excellent,she's a straight old girl.Sounds healthy too.Fitzy is a good hand.

Cheers for the video mate , Kiama is my old stomping ground . On the hunt for an fte troopy so if you hear of any coming up for sale give us a yell cob , cheers mate , harry

She's a beauty mate!

So it's going to sit and rust for how much longer.?

Looks great mate. Nice job. Well done 😃👍

Nice work Gilly

Hey mate ive got a 3 inch straight though and egr delete on my 79 rv and with out a doubt it opens them up for sure itll tow a loaded car trailer up a hill and make it its bitch itll just kept pulling up the hill without any real effort ive had v8s as work utes some with and without 3inch fitted and they had nothing on the 1hdfte.

haha I'm trying to redo mine, and you skipped the most important part between 7:44 and 7:47...i can't get the front plate off to save my life! I'm not sure what's going on but I spent the last two days shoving screwdrivers and wedges and everything under the sun to try get that stupid plate off! lol and you skip that exact part, oh boy lol

Wait until your fuel tank starts leaking and you have to cut everything up, including the tank to get it out. FYI the bottom of the tank sits just about in the bottom of the bilge and always in bilge water (not the best idea.)

Thank you. That seems to be the consensus. Or perhaps Spruce. Going to try to find Doug fir.

Leaks are a problem which never go completely away but can be brought under some control. You must be very persistent though. The worst problem I've had to face, was a badly leaking diesel tank. This required lifting the plywood sole in the galley and cutting the hull liner beneath it. Then cutting the 90 gallon aluminum tank into sections in order to lift them through the main companion way. A truly terrible project to be sure. I found the bottom of the old tank nearly touching the bottom of the bilge and sitting in bilge water (I wanted to shoot the marine architect). I hope you won't ever have to face such a mess (but you probably will).

Hello. Just removed my bow sprit, Down Easter 38 ketch ‘75. Looks like it’s a bit soft and it’s already been scarfed at the outer end a bit. What wood did you use for your new one? ‘might have to replace all of mine. Thanks for the video! G

Did you use an etch primer?

Does it really need to be that thick, or are you just being cautious,?

where did you buy the repair kit?

Bravo well done mate 👍

Not a bad video mate, but you wouldn't need those wedges if adjusted it properly.

Love it mate, I would recommend getting a Unichip fitted and a dyno tune now that you have the exhaust and bigger airbox. That will be a complete game changer. Great vid.

Love the 1HDFTEs, one of the best in-line 6 made by Toyota! Great test video mate! Greetings from PNG!

What were your EGT's running? The thing I noticed is how much cooler the truck seemed to run with the larger exhaust. Watch the temp gauge. I have a 95 Troopy with a 1HZ.

Loved it. Great video 😀

Loved it & enjoyed playing around with the drone. Looking forward to more vids & wishing you best of luck with the Tassy trip. Unfortunately I can’t make it this time. 😜👍

Jeez. You gotta be careful with that speedo . Good to have the gps as a double checker 😃👍. Good job

Definitely an improvement with the new exhaust. A shame about those disgusting sausage waters toilets. That bloke in the little black car at 15:30 I think needs some food to look at his lights. Good overall testing champion. Interesting to see the difference 😃👍
