[@brycecausovski3420]

your vids are helping so much you're a legend

[@HarrysBigShed]

Thank you Bryce. It is great to hear from people like yourself. Cheers Harry

Did you ever do the video of putting it back together mate?

[@HarrysBigShed]

I'm pretty sure I put the head back on in this video. What did I miss?

[@justforkiks29]

Are the lifters located under the cylinder head? Or can they be removed with the cylinder head still on?

[@HarrysBigShed]

The lifters are in the block I think I have no idea how they come out especially with the head on. The Skid Factory channel has recently posted up a series on rebuilding a TD42 that’s pretty comprehensive. Thanks for watching

@@HarrysBigShed Thank you for the info.

Did you manage to get the inlet manifold welded up, as usual well done. Need to feed the boy up, maybe try spinach like Popeye.

I found another one Set me back 100 bucks so not the most expensive mistake I have ever made

[@roderickduracktully7496]

What was the rough costs involved, my td42 is down in conpression on 2 cylinders. How long did it take roughly ?

[@HarrysBigShed]

Hi Rod It cost about $400 to get the head machined and another $300 or so for the gasket kit and head bolts. Allow yourself about 1/2 a day to get it all apart and a full day to put it all back together once you get the head back from your machinist. Thanks for watching Cheers Harry

hows the td42 going now?

[@HarrysBigShed]

Happy New Year Lincoln I'm going to be replacing the injectors soon as at least one seems to be leaking down over night and then I will send it off for tuning. It runs hot under load and I suspect that it is getting too much boost. I will post up a video when it is done. Thanks for watching
