I have a 1998 WA Starwagon GLX (Auto) that has done 235000Kms. On idel mainly if aircon is on and when started it blows alot of blue smoke. Does anyone know if this would be due to stuffed oil seals or valves or could it be the rings. It does not blow smoke when accelarating. From the day i bought the van it has always seemed very gutless. Is this normal for this model van?

Hi

Anyone know if the wa starwagon (australia) uses the OBD 2 protocol for the diagnostic plug. I dont think they have to comply here in Aus like the us or eu cars do. It dosent seem to have the obd compliant plug and I would like to get the codes and diagnostics from my vehicle.

Any info appreciated. Not sure how similar the delica is. I have a 2002 WA Starwagon

Anyone know if a wheel with a 38mm offset will fit on my 84 L300 Van without conflicting? Thanks!!!

Gidday,

I'm in the middle of changing the cam belt on my L300 Sportpac. The balance shaft belt snapped and caused the timing belt to jump a few teeth -- but there is no other damage as this is apparently a non-interference motor.

The motor is the 2 litre 4G63 SOHC (carbureted). Now I've figured out all the timing marks for all the pulleys except for the cam pulley. ...

I want to put put a 2.4 into my van but can not afford to buy the computer and associated stuff. What i want to know is if i can fit my 2.0 carbie and manifold and rejet to suit the 2.4.

My partner just bought a 1990 L300 express 4wd. The rain gutters are very rusty. It appears the roof is a double skin, which I presume is the reason for the common rust problem.

We do have a mig welder...

Hi Folks
I'm new here but have a 1991 MWB express van (petrol/manual/no A/C) that has developed a problem since I've installed a CD player - not sure if that has any bearing on the problem though. The park lights/tail lights, dash lights and horn are all on F3 which blows as soon as I turn the lights on. The horn works OK though if I replace the fuse and don't use the lights....

The gear changes are extrmely sloppy/vague on my L300. I was told I needed to replace the bush on the crossshaft assembly. Can anyone tell me if these bushes are available (in Australia), and where/how I might get one? I gather I could have one made up but I'd rather have one ready to fit when I dismantle the assembly.
