New to forum but not to patrols
Hi all
As per title I'm new to the forum but have owned Patrols before. I've had an L26 with a Perkins 4236 conversion and a Y60. Altogether done about 700k miles in them. After the Y60 died I went on to other vehicles as I wasnt too fussed about the mickey-mouse engine that was in the Y61. However I've started thinking, as I'm fancying returning to Patrols. So, question: Can anyone tell me please if the 4.2 diesel or the 4.5 or 4.8 petrol was available in the Y61 for the Japanese market ? 'Cos if they are I'm seriously thinking about importing. Regards Andy |
Does this link answer your question ?

BTW noticed on your profile that you have a GC, thats what I went for after my last Patrol, now have a Grand Cherokee ZG. Like the car generally, but dont trust it due to electrickery gremlins. Also a bit of a low towing limit. ................ Andy |

dose anyone know how to replace valve guides on a 2.8 y61 patrol

I would be surprised if Japan didn't run the full breadth of Y61 engine options tbh :nenau
I'm sure I've seen imported TD42 Y61s that looked Jap spec (eg. no rear lights in bumper). I run a Jap import TD42 Y60 myself. |

Our WK(Mk1) is great to drive but it is quite a complex Merc designed V6, for some reason we like the feel of the older WJ with its more plodding 5 cylinder Merc designed unit complete with the 5 cylinder engine note thrum. |

Re: my initial post and enquiry, I've found that the 4.5 & 4.8 Y61 are available in Japan, so started ball rolloing to import |

on the then new ZD engine. Had a ZD powered Terrano 3 years has restored faith in the engine. Mind thinking back its a shame there isnt a nice 6 pot under that long bonnet and would have been great if Nissan had done a 6 cylinder ZD with a cc around 4.5 litre and say 240 bhp out of the box...... a modernisation of the 4.2TD I guess. |
