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
