Diesel Fuel Pump Timing Kit Recommendations

Post by **The Hairy Camper** » 21 Jan 2021, 10:15

Hi people, I need a diesel fuel pump timing kit. I've seen a few cheap one's between £30-£50 (with mixed reviews), but Brickwerks sell one for £125. As i'll probably only use it once(!) can anyone recommend anything cheaper?

Cheers,
HC.

Diesel 1Y engine. Removing knackered Injection pump and replacing it with the pump off my KY 1.7.

Injection pump timing is out on my KY pump, so need set it once installed on the 1Y.

That’s quite expensive for half the kit, you said you have the bar and pin already

Here’s a more comprehensive one

Cheers David, I saw that one. Wasn't sure if that was too cheap/rubbish?

It does seem to have good reviews though

Would be a lot easier on the wallet too!

its only really the dti thats important and its easy enough check it against feeler blades etc

theres 2 different types, theres a possibility you would need an adapter like this, i cant tell from the dti one pictures if those adapters are the same thread
