Hi and welcome
Yes, it is most definitely a very good idea to change over to the mechanical pump. Electronic injection pump can be a problem in older trucks with hot starting issues being a symptom. You will also with the conversion move from a fly by wire throttle to a conventional wire which is another massive benefit when in low box where you should loose that jerkiness on throttle response. Tuning will also benefit as its a mechanical tune of the pump rather than soldering in a tuning box. Much better to play about with. One of the best upgrades for a Y61 2.8 Get it done |
