It runs!! The TDI 4Runner fired right up tonight with minimal cranking! clack clack clack clack clack clack clack clack clack clack!!!! After the injection pump was fully powered & a few other sensors were installed, the engine came to life in less than a second of cranking.. no sputtering about it! Pretty sweet for a diesel. Not even loud at all straight out of the turbo with no exhaust. Still a LOT of work left to do before it's street ready, but at least now I know the engine is good. Been over a year since I bought the engine. Nice to see some big progress. Combusted diesel sure smells good :-D
More videos to come soon... lots of footage, just have to make time to edit it. The videos aren't made to be entertaining - it is mostly for documentation purposes and for those wanting to build something similar.
