no shade cloth on mine bull bar and winch is all
There's your problem!!7.62marksman said:I will say that mine was a 2.8 non turbo 5 speed manual extra cab hilux 1997 model and they fitted a 3lt turbo
and it is fine on flat or down hill its only when going up hill under load that it boils and that is ANY hill over say 500m long and any grade of hill
of cause the steeper the hill the quicker it boils

I assume they fitted an intercooler, check that. Maybe flush it out, and check the hoses.
Factory motors don't have extra fans etc fitted, they don't need them.
Something is wrong and whoever you had work on it is a gumby, take it somewhere else.

No intercooler fitted and the local diesel mechs said that that was fine
Yer they don't need one for normal driving.But as soon as you take that 4x4 into soft sand or towing a heavy load they come in handy as an added extra.Occasional_panner said:7.62marksman said:I will say that mine was a 2.8 non turbo 5 speed manual extra cab hilux 1997 model and they fitted a 3lt turbo
