So, my day went from great to horrible in a matter of seconds. Oil pressure dropped to... bad. Oil was spraying everywhere... looks like (*gulp*) from the head of the engine. Anywhere in Winnipeg, or close to Winnipeg that knows ANYTHING about these. I could live without the stare right now. It's a 1990 Daihatsu Hijet. And it's awesome.
I dunno offhand but dont run it until its checked!! Starpus might know. he's in the area. and has a daihatsu i think
You should have seen how fast I had that engine off. I was actually proud of it. I had my friend in the truck and he didn't even know what was happening! I was going about 60kph, clicked off the ignition and rolled into the parking lot of a shop (who will do the preliminary work, in case it's something small and simple, it's the speedy on Pembina, I've seen a sambar for sale there, and a daihatsu there before... for a bad situation it's not 10/10 bad) There was still oil in the engine (leaking out of the engine) when it was parked.... call it a win. I've been driving things like this for too long when the reaction time is that fast.
The Speedy on Pembina, just North of Bishop is awesome. They have a guy there that actually knows his way around these things. My problem turned out to be minor (I could have done it at home if it broke down there ) But, they really did it right. Clifford the big red truck is purrrrrring.
Thanks for that it's good to know that there is somewhere we can take them here in the peg BTW What was wrong with it?
