Hi Peter,

This is what I'm looking to install in my DJ-6. I found a CJ-5 with a 4 192 perkins in it.
The seller want 500$ for the whole jeep.

Thank

My goat experience is limited, but I think I remember a goat preferring a good push instead of pulling.. :D

That's Amma, an alpine dairy goat.� ;D

She'd come in handy pulling the jeep, not riding in the back. 8-)

This isn't a barn find, it's a barn build!

As if I don't feel dumb enough looking at any gas powered engine I am completely clueless looking at a diesel one. This is quite fascinating, please keep it up.

And yes, nice goat. A video of the goat riding in the Jeep would be superb.

Continued on with the injector pump side of the engine. The secondary fuel filter housing is on the right of the photo towards the back of the engine.



Installed the rebuilt injector pump with low and high pressure fuel lines. The grey lines above the valve cover are the leak off lines. The leak off system feeds excess fuel that the injectors don't require back to the fuel tank.



It takes a long time to make sure all the lines are plumbed correctly. All these lines have been meticulously cleaned inside and out. Any contamination past the secondary fuel filter would be very bad for the injector pump and fuel injectors. Note the final components of the throttle linkage.



Here's a bigger view of the whole drivers side of the engine. The gray line that passes around the back of the block brings the fuel from the lift pump to the secondary fuel filter. This line is bigger than the high pressure lines. It looks to be 1/4" while the high pressure lines are 3/16". Sorry the pic is a bit fuzzy  ::)

This is when I was getting the trim together on the lift pump (passenger's side) of engine....the grey lines on the right are for lubrication. New copper crush washers installed to form 'joints'. The rebuilt lift pump installed on left.



Intake and igniter installed:

I went from not knowing diesel Jeeps existed to learning of two in a week.I stumbled across a '59 for sale out in Phoenix.

I reached outa couple of weeks ago to that fella but never got a response. If the body is in very good shape I think it would be a fair asking price. Looks like a PTO winch up front too.

Sounds like there a problem with the transfer case.

The smoke could caused by something as simple as a bad injector or dirty filters.

It actually runs!  Gawd, am I glad that's in Arizona, otherwise you'd be paying me back for a certain lunch date we had a few years back.  :-)

Now that's a historical piece.  How cool would it be to get it going again!  Please keep us updated.

So I did manage to slowly get the replacement Perkins up to snuff. The crank spins freely and the replacement engine came with a big box of parts like a rebuilt injector pump, a set of injectors, Lucas starter parts. All the rest of the trim is there like the lift pump, high pressure fuel lines, oil filter housing, fuel filter housing, water inlet and outlet.

Rebuilt injector pump.....



The injectors....



Checking the fitting of the pump

For your information Ryan, Diesel jeep was rare. Mainly made during the Kayser-Willys era.

This one should be a late 1963 or early 1964.
