Ya main cooling problem at high speeds is some noddy has installed ya radiator cooling fan back to front its pushing air not drawing it 😅 .and that noise is probably the fan hitting the radiator cause its back to front 😮and its got a turbo 👍 , install an intercooler and put the aircon back in her yourl be right and comfy and get a proper tune yourl get more power out off her its a Toyota mate the best 😊and that model hilux is probably the most reliable hilux ever built that gave them the unbreakable icon 👍 if you need money sell that 3 and a 1/2 grand drone 😳

We've done the trip now 2 times now & for most of the journey, I was biting my nails in fear we'd break down. Kind regards from Adelaide, South Australia 🇦🇺

@gracewalker4336 6 месяцев назад

Beautiful scenery and footage. Thanks for sharing your journey , take care !

@thelazyoverlander 11 месяцев назад

So hope you made it OK Paul. We did the trip from the NT to WA only 2 years ago, no regrets from us mate.

@Campingdownunder 11 месяцев назад

Awesome trip 😀 I'd just love to do it in a more reliable car next time 🤣

@glengriffin5773 7 месяцев назад

great content again mate you do make a good vid keep it up cheers from Queensland south

@mcake1234 10 месяцев назад

Mate you're not alone. I have sh*t go south all the time. Great footage and well done for keeping up your spirits.

@Campingdownunder 10 месяцев назад

I haven't let it bring me down. I made it here safely luckily. I'll get the car repaired when I can afford it. I'm just happy to be here 👍

@darrengray2309 10 месяцев назад

Those 12v cooler boxes use massive amounts of power no wonder your batteries went flat if you left it on all night

@Campingdownunder 10 месяцев назад

I've had it in the car for over 5 years but never actually used it. I just used it as a center console, armrest & drink holder lol. Definitely won't be using it again to keep anything cool if I stop anywhere overnight 🤣

@Broden.t27 11 месяцев назад

Good luck on your travels mate

@Campingdownunder 11 месяцев назад

Thanks mate 👍 luckily I made it but I still haven't been able to get the car looked at. Hopefully I'll get it done soon once I save up enough

@downthetrackaustralia 11 месяцев назад

From the noise and vibrations I'm guessing water pump/fan/fanbelt. Hope it all goes well for you Paul

@Campingdownunder 11 месяцев назад

Thanks mate 👍 it's strange I've had all that stuff replaced recently. I try and keep the car as maintained as I can

@AussieVanAdventures 10 месяцев назад

Looking good! Almost there now! haha. glad the hilux is still going

@Campingdownunder 10 месяцев назад

I was so happy the hilux made it. Last trip it made it there & back no issues at all. Gotta love old cars lol

@Crackymate 10 месяцев назад

Good luck in your new adventures mate. Life is too short to grow old and wonder “what if” 👍

@Campingdownunder 10 месяцев назад

Exactly why I made the move 👍

@gregwooldridge8864 7 месяцев назад

I took the air-conditioning cooler out of my 1997 hilux never over heated again the little corner windows blew enough air.

@davidmilledge221 10 месяцев назад

Only use cooler box when driving they not thermo controlled like the real fridges , the thing will run flat out till the battery dies , make sure it turns off when you turn the ignition off to easy then fail safe 😉

@louiskudlak2256 10 месяцев назад

Mate safe travels and keep looking forward to the day u update your 4wd, I could not survive in wa without aircon in my 4wd, 1st world problems ah 😂

@Campingdownunder 10 месяцев назад

Thanks mate 👍 yeah 2 years time can't come soon enough lol. It won't be a new car but at least it will be from this century 🤣

@GervsAdventures 11 месяцев назад

Least you're in WA now, just hope it's an easy fix and not a major one. Not sure but has the cluch on the fan been serviced, Unless its the injectors or something.

@Campingdownunder 11 месяцев назад

Yeah mate it's all been replaced. It's still making noises occasionally but I'm just putting up with it until I can get it looked at. I'm hopeless at anything mechanical so I pay other people to fix it 🤣

@GervsAdventures 11 месяцев назад

Just hoping nots nothing major though and easy fix. but for an 89 Hilux to last that long is Truley well looked after.@@Campingdownunder

@FlatBrokeAdventures 10 месяцев назад

I hope you made it ok

@Campingdownunder 10 месяцев назад

I made it luckily 👍

@FlatBrokeAdventures 10 месяцев назад

@Bigcountry_littlelegs 11 месяцев назад

Do you have power steering? If so check the pump pully, For the random overheating sounds like pump timing may be too retarded, retarding it helps build boost quicker but will give higher egt and possible overheating issues, or the viscous fluid in the fan may be a little low, can be topped up. Unless its spanking new they don't get much more reliable then an old ln106

@Campingdownunder 11 месяцев назад

I've replaced everything possible that can cause overheating. It's really frustrating. But I've been putting up with it for over 5 years now. Only 2 more to go 🤣

@Bigcountry_littlelegs 10 месяцев назад

@Campingdownunder then the pump timing is most likely culprit not a real hard job and can get tools off ebay cheap,

@iaincaveney7162 10 месяцев назад

I have a 1989LN106 dual cab and I turboed it and it got hot enough to open the radiator cap and expel a load of coolant, and I measured the sump temperature wi h was 118 degrees Celsius, so I installed a oil cooler fed from a slice fitted under the oil filter, cooler was 8 row high, oil temps dropped to 96 and the engine stopped expelling coolant , with a standard non power steering radiator, bottom pipe is different, I think because of the turbo the oil is hotter a than the coolant and gives heat to the coolant through the block mounted factory cooler a d the cooling system can't cope

@lyonsy143 it mainly overheats with a head wind or up big hills. The old girl wasn't designed to carry this much weight lol. I'd love to get a jack off canopy in the future so at least at camp I can unload the weight & even during the week getting to work have a much lighter car. I can only dream 🤣
