So,
i bought a ford transit with a dead engine.
Its a 2006 Single cab, with dual rear wheels, 6 speed manual and 2.4 TDCI 135 engine. with 90,000kms
I had a complete 2.4 TDCI from a 2008 Land rover Defender. with 20,000kms
Great i thought, pull out old engine, pop in new engine.
Then i realised with it out, the VJ 2006 transit 2.4 TDCI has the H9FA with Delphi injection and a vacuum operated turbo. and the VM 2007+/Transit has the H9FB with Bosch injection and Electronic turbo.
No matter, i'll strip both down to long blocks, put all of the Delphi VJ electronics including injectors into the H9FB motor.
Nope injectors dont fit.
Okay, lets put the whole H9FB in and just work it out.
Brand new dual mass flywheel, and done, its all in, except for the exhaust down pipe off the turbo, which i can sort, all is great.
----- So at the moment ive stalled and its been sitting for 3 years and im trying to determine what to do.
Now comes the electric side of things.
I bought a VM haynes manual and VJ haynes manual, studied the wiring diagrams. but they are crap.
The engine has a small fuse box, which ive put next to the large fuse box from the car in the engine bay.
I can get it to crank, but it cranks say three times and then stops.
So my head starts spinning at this point, because im not disengaging the engine immobilizer, so that has to be causing a problem.
I have the VJ pedal in place not the VM accelerator pedal, but id assume it would start but just not rev, so i doubt thats causing a problem yet.
So i feel like my options are.
-Sell it off.
-Try to find a 135 Mk6 transit that has been rolled and put a whole engine in it and sell the H9FB engine i have. (I've been trying this but it seems hard in Australia)
- Get a whole VM Dash wiring harness and pedal, and retro fit it into the VJ.
- Get the immobilizer switched off by a tuner in the ecu, to see if i can get past that problem.
Happy to just chat about it all...
