Are you sure it not just a sticky part problem? I am not familiar with this specific fuel injection system, but it shouldn't fail mechanically after being sat for a while. A sliding part, on the other hand, could easily be affected by not being activated for a period of time. Just sayin'...

You could possibly call, or visit, a Fuso dealer and ask to speak with a senior mechanic. You might get lucky. Personally, I have had success doing this in the past.

Before spending any money on replacement parts, take a step back and do some basic checks. Some simple fault finding should be the first place to start. You mentioned that the truck has been sitting for an extended period, therefore there is a possibility that there may be some corrosion or...

You should be able to access the error code/s by using the blink code method on the dash. That will give you a much better starting point, opposed to making assumptions.

Normally, if you fabricate something from scratch you get exactly what you want. Modifying an existing product can be beneficial sometimes, but more often than not, it will take longer and it may end up being a compromise for what you actually want. Determining which is the best way to go is...

Maybe you should use ChatGPT for all of your future questions, given that you seem to have so much faith in its accuracy. Personally, I would prefer responses from real people with real life experiences, but you do you... :unsure:

Neither axle should be overloaded at all. :oops:

That is on flat ground, but it does not take into account how much weight would be over a single tyre if your going up an off camber 4WD track and one rear wheel went into a deep rutt. Tyre ratings are based on running them at the specified tyre pressures. When you go offroad you will likely be...

From my understanding... the original plan was to go with the Australian manufacturer, which I suggested was not an optimal solution, given that the whole layout was designed for a RHD vehicle. @gator70 changed his mind at some point and went with a Chinese company, who built the complete camper...

True, but this type of pipework is normally installed in a house, not a vehicle that has to deal with continual vibration. Each one of those fittings has mass, so if at all possible, I would add as much support as you can for the pipework, so that movement is reduced to a bare minimum. As I...

I think that you may have missed a zero in there...

For a ladder that is mounted vertically on a composite panel, the majority of the forces will be in shear. Bonded attachment points should easily withstand those forces, assuming that the correct surface preparation and adhesive were used. If internal reinforcement does not exist, bonding onto...

Where do I start? Wow! That's a very open ended question... If you want to know the surface bonding capability of anything, you need to read, or know, the specifications of the product/s you intend to use. There is definitely no "one size fits all" answer to that question. As @rruff noted...

That looks very neat, but it's a huge amount of connectors! :unsure: Tracking down a leak in that setup would be a fun exercise.

What the....
