Hey folks, sounded like I just grenaded my L300 4D56 engine, 4 weeks before leaving for a 12 month roadtrip. I'm in Chattanooga, TN, and I have a great mechanic for everything but the Engine. He just doesn't do diesels. I'm leaning toward a D4BF Crate engine, but need someone to put in in for...
Hey everyone, I've recently picked up a 1995 L400 2.8 Diesel 4M40. Hoping you can help me diagnose a problem, I really appreciate the support these kinds of groups provide.
I seem to be having a Hesitation/Shudder/Cut Out while driving, especially under load. If I step quickly on the...
Howdy. Had a rough week with my delica.
Flipped it on its side in the woods. Managed to get it out running and driving after adding coolant. All other fluids looked fine. Not seeing any leaks other than coolant ( which I was already aware of before the flip)
Drove about two hours with 0 issues...

Hey Guys,
We got an L400 and cooked the engine.
We have had it for 5 years and have replaced radiator, recondition diesel pump, calipers, fair bit in the front end etc
We were deciding whether to sell or just leave in a shed for 5 years until we get a chance to redo it..
We were going to...
Looking to offload the motor from my diesel delica that I just pulled out to swap in a D4BF. Wouldn't mind keeping it around for parts, but I don't have the room. Engine was actually running well when I pulled it to replace. Is complete except for the parts I had to swap over to the new engine...
I ended up throwing a rod on my way back home on a cross country trip. As it stands she’s stuck in a shop in Nebraska. I thought about upgrading with the newer Huyndai engine. However the mechanics are hesitant on installing the same thing but a little different (even though I explained it’s the...
Dear,
I'm Nicola and I write from Italy.
I have to rebuild a 1988 4D56 Engine .
I read this post:
https://delicaforum.com/index.php?threads/cylinder-heads-flush-recessed-or-protruding-valve.1286/
Now my engine has PROTRUDING HEAD and PROTRUDING PISTONS.
Since I found a NON-PROTRUDING head...
I replaced my alternator on my L300 with this alternator but my belts are rolling over at high rpms. I'm pretty sure that this is caused by misalignment of the alternator. From what I can tell, the parallel alignment of the alternator pulley is further back from main pulley. But it could also be...
Hi folks, my 1989 Delica L300's diesel engine has failed, and I need to refurbish or replace it. If you could answer either of these questions, I'd really appreciate it!
1. Do you know of any specific shop that will rebuild/refurbish the current engine? (A place that offers a warrantee would be...
Hello all, I'm quite new but very excited to own my 91 Delica Starwagon Super Exceed!
However, I've stopped into a project that had me a bit in over my head...if you have any advice or leads, I'd be elated and appreciative.
I have a turbo engine with a blown head gasket and a scored...
