Originally posted by brundah01 View PostNot sure of differences on 150 as regards R&I, but when we did my 2009 120 1KD, we removed the inlet manifold, you can then clean the valve ports, but do so carefully with a vacuum cleaner on hand.
Optional: I went further, had the head off & sent for full clean & valve re-seat. Engine internals were like new, so now my engine is nearly back to new condition. On ####'s advice for Qld temps I use Penrite HPR 15-50 & use LiquiMoly Diesel Inlet Cleaner every oil change (@ 7,500K intervals -or 5000K if long dist towing involved). Always check the oil strainer.
Yes 7mm EGR plate installed.
Cheers

Hi All, I have just installed a solid EGR blanking plate on my 2014 Fortuner TRD 1KD FTV ( KUN51R) engine. While the car is "worked" by TRD I think that the engine is the same as the 2014 Hilux & Pardo.
It took 20 minutes for the job. Remove cooler cover 10m & I removed the battery & the fuel sensor plug. 12mm open end spanner to back off the EGR bolt as the dip stick bracket prevents a socket drive & then 3/8 extension drive with 10mm to back off the EGR to head nuts. Screwdriver between water housing & EGR pipe using left hand. Right hand gets Blanking plate vertical & flat to slide upto the top Fwd stud, apply light pressure to the pipe & slide it up & swing anti clockwise to engage the other stud, release pressure on screwdriver. re-tighten everything NB light pressure!
I have a Innova 31703 OBD2 scanner & will do some Air intake & Throttle body cleaning & see what errors come up. At idle there are no dash errors but the OBD scanner is seeing an EGR error but not reporting anything, street testing to TBA. I also have a blanking plate with 7mm hole if needed.
I ran some live data tests at 60 & 100KPH. The engine now runs 6c cooler 81c at 21c outside. The fuel was 7.8 K/l and is now 9.5K/L. The OBD scanner is telling me everything is running well, I did put a can of L Moly Decarb down the intake at 2 second bursts ( took 20 minutes) before the run.
No dash errors.
Next I have a catch can & will bolt it to the side of the air cleaner & pipe the PCV to it then to the FWd side of the air cleaner.
more to come.
Note: the Innova 31703 also does ABS & SRS scanning & will now live in the car just incase it goes into Limp mode on the beach at Fraser one day.

I would like to find out more about the remap that you had done, shame the private messaging still doesn't work as not sure if you are allowed to post who did it and if a dealer could tell it has been done re possible guarantee issues etc. Are you north or south of the river? I am south, again not sure if I can post my location without breaking any rules.

Could you please give me a bit more of a clue as to where you had this remap done. I have been to the first search result for remapping in Bibra Lake and they said they could not do an EGR on it's own but would need a full tune AND a blanking plate fitted albeit without any hole.
Another much more local company to me said they could do an EGR delete only but advised against it as it would be using Russian software with no support. Their favoured company (Italian) is intending to support the 2.8 engine but hasn't released it yet.
Edit this second company also said that a dealer would have to download the new firmware and compare it to the original to notice if it had been done.
