Identifying sherpa 2.5d engines?????

Sep 14, 2003 1 Replies

Hi



I have just collected what I am told is a sherpa engine that I intend fitting into my series 3. Any advice from someone who has done this?????????????????



It looks just like a 2.25 diesel landy engine except the injector pump has been turned through 90 degrees and is run of the front of the engine, there is a vacuum pump where the injector pump was and the water pump is different and it has an oil cooler piped from the oil filter housing.



Does that sound right?



Also do these engines use the same type of starter motor?



Thanks



Jon


Sounds about right i have one fitted in my old S3 its basicly a 2.5 LR lump with a different timing case i beleve

as for the starter im not 100% sure but i suspect that the standard 2.5 starter will fit as it is the same block..
