LD20 injection pump

#1

Post by Knock »

There are a few variations over the years, is there a way to identify them? I’m fairly certain I have the earliest.

How about identifying injection pumps, is there a difference between the pump used on the LD20 vs LD20II? How hard would it be to rebuild? What parts might I need to do this?

Last weird question, anyone know if this engine was only available in RHD vehicles, would that make some parts harder adapting to LHD?

As the LD20 is almost unknown in the USA, hopefully some non-US member will contribute here.
