Cleaning 1KZ-TE Diesel Injectors for a Toyota Land Cruiser Prado 

Having a similar issue with my engine beyond 2000 rpm, local mechanics claimed it was a gear box problem but I highly doubt, gonna clean out my injectors first and see if there's a difference. Thanks so much for the upload! Subscribed

Straight Veg oil can fill up your fuel filter with gunk ... there was a old 5th gear prog where they ran an old Merc on chip fat .. ran great, but the fuel filter life was short.. Good work on the old girl though!

Hi Dirty Mike's Garage, I am running my Surfs and prados on WVO for a many years and hundreeds of thouthand klicks. I admit I have to change/clean the injectors time to time. And it usually noticeably less power when running WVO compare to running pure diesel. However, if you preheat the fuel in a coolant-to-fuel heat exchanger, it helps with fumigation, improves power delivery and prolongs time between injector's services. Just a question to you: For how long you've been running waste oil (in Km) prior to your injector's service?

Does the manual state anything about putting anything on the threads when putting them back in like antiseize?

Nice, this is what I was searching for. Thanks. What grit of sand paper did you use on the business end of those injectors?

Hey mate what's actually glowplug size for 1kzte?

Hi im having same issue after 2k revs it lacks power and engine light comes on. Did your engine light come on over 2k revs ?

Another way around your issue could also be to add a small amount of gasoline instead of diesel say around 5 or 10% it would deffenatly thin the mix down. Just mix it up in a small container first and make sure your happy with the mix.

Wonder why you didn't either do a spray and pressure test and balance them, Maybe you need new nozzles? I am a MB mechanic and I advise people not to EVER go straight veggie oil. Maybe 70:30 diesel/veg is doable but really why bother?. Veg oil ruins engines.

Good day sir. Where you getting a good ticking before you pulled the injectors?
