I spend every day for the last 3 weeks working on my new mk3 Shogun and when it rains, I come inside and watch videos on other people fixing them up haha! thanks a lot for your channel mate!
i too spend far too much time working on my shogun! i still love it though! (even if every other bolt is rusted in place and normally snaps off! :) ) enjoy your shogun mate they are beasts imo.
Deleted my secondary butterfly valves. Happy I got it before it went thru. Still drives fine, now have a bung in front and back. Rod and all is gone. No noticeable difference driving.
The Montero Messiah, great stuff man. I am the proud owner of an 02 limited. And she makes me pay small repairs bills, but god do I love driving her. Still get complements on how she looks.
Compression testing alone isn’t enough. Should also do leak down test. Most likely there are leaking valves or piston rings. There are still missing bolts and valve debris somewhere. Maybe inside the exhaust at this point.
Oh man, what a great Channel. Just discovered it. I bought a brand new Montero in 1995, loved it, and I've had about four total now. Now I've got an 02 that I love to death that I call the beach buggy. I've been telling people how great these things are for years, so I'm really stoked to see someone who is even more stoked than me on them. I don't want it to sound like I'm cheating on my Montero, but I also have two Suzuki samurai's, an 86 Isuzu trooper, and a 2008 sequoia. Love them all. Anyway, keep up the good work!
Great presentation on these videos. I am getting the ChrisFix vibe, but for Monteros. I am getting my enthusiasm jazzed up again after sitting on a ABS hydro break booster that was a complete fail due to a decommissioned part sent to me for a land cruiser instead of a Montero and the seller not honouring the the sale of admitting the error even after proof. I left the project for a year until I had the enthusiasm and extra cash to make a second attempt. Luckily, my butterflies are intact, tight, and looking lovely, because, hey, this beast of a rig isn’t putting up with butterflies in its stomach!!!
I would have pulled the head or both heads. Thoroughly cleaned the intake and accounted for all pieces, even if by weight. This happened to me four years ago with only a single screw falling into the combustion chamber. What came out was a forged shim about 0.020" thick. It is still running super smooth today.
What a score! Here in Canada, these are hard to come by. Many people haven’t even heard of them, pr like many, they think mine is new, and had no idea it was retailed in 2003.
I got a 2001 4x4 Montero with a little over 20000 miles the person who owned it said a rat did some chewing on the wires under the hood, she had her mechanic rewrap the wires . I got it and seemed to be fine my friend washed the engine . I drove it home over 20 miles no problems the next day the battery and A/I lights came on checked the manual for it said it was telling me to check the tranny fulid it was low added trans fulid now after it runs and gets to the med heat on the temp gauage it starts smoking like a freight train. Why ?
Once you remove the plenum, unscrew all the screws holding the flaps onto the shaft, disconnect the linkage on the front of the shaft, pull the shaft out, remove the bushings between each cylinder's runner, TIG weld or plug the hole left by the shaft in the front where the plastic piece with the o-ring normally goes and put a vacuum cap over the unplugged port that the actuator runs off of. Pretty simple really.
How much oil would be too much oil burning for this engine? Mine is burning 1 liter every 1200-1300km. Pretty sure the valve stem seals are weared because some smoke build up when race the engine after let it idling for like 10min. Besides that no smoke
Hello bro. I have same colour and model pajero (in cyprus). I brought roof rail from ebay. When they came and check the products, there are screw on the rails. Mechanics said me that ı should open hole on the roof. Is there different solutions to assemble rail to my car? I dont want to open hole to my car
I have two Monteros free for you both run great but they need transmissions .. 2003 limited over 200k miles 2002 limited with 185k miles this one has lots of new parts If you are interested let me know
man if i didn't have my hands full with the projects i have then i'd be interested, but as it sits i need to focus on the stuff i've got already. Thanks though!
"Why do you still install these butterfly flaps? My Montero doesn't have them at all. Is it possible that they improve fuel efficiency? Because mine is too high :("
They enhance low end torque by utilizing long runners in the intake. They get closed off at higher rpms and the short runners take over. In Gen 2s, only the 3.5l DOHC used a similar set-up (94-96). I "think" all the Gen 3s have them.
thank you man! And can you tell me about diff swap from 4.3 to 4.9 did you make this change ? How's that gonna affect the fuel consumption? Any direct observations? Because if i cant bring low this consumption i will sell the car :(@@chriskahn7123
@@murtagon4460 Swirl flaps? Not sure what that means. I HAVE had a similar issue, and I had new bushings made out of a bronze aluminum alloy (a leftover piece a guy had from a Space Shuttle project, no joke), the screws were then red loc-tited in place and a new o-ring went into the end bushing. Problem solved, full functionality retained.

Takes a licking, but keeps on ticking! 🙂 Not a fan of Asian V6s. Everything buried under manifolds! All mine ('90s Altima, Camry, Tacoma) are fours. My brother had a 1980 Colt wagon (Mitsubishi Galant in the rest of the world) with the 2.6 'silent-shaft' that made it to 280K, when the tranny died!

Wow you’re an amazing guy for selling it back to him

Dude, more content!!!! We love this Pajero content.

We also caught one on a 95 SR, number 6 butterfly laying in the intake runner, "seconds from disaster," haha. Great job B!
You are one of the Realist! Great work!
Edit: Ordered a shirt!
Bro you are freaking awesome!! Keep these fun videos coming!
Thanks!
You’re doing the lords work, love the channel
haha thanks!
This pov camera work is so good it felt like I was the one fixing the butterfly valves lol

Dude every time I watch your videos I crack up at "The Hand" hahaha
it's a signature move now haha. i can't talk without my hands
I love my montero but is always a problem, you are good mecánico
Thanks so much for making these videos!
You should really do a shirt of your 3rd gen! Id love to buy one of those
What a legend dude.
That's really great you got to ship it back off to the original owner.
yeah he was very excited about it
We've bought two like this and it was just a bad tensioner and both were not out of time.
that's awesome!
Great job bro
That's awesome!
Make more montero content like this! 🔥💪🏻
Tks for the info bro you make this make sense
That was a super fun vid man.😅

16:30 Why do these things always shake?
Nice job 👏🏾
Can you do a full video how to delete the full butterfly valve system. Please

I thought plenty of folk delete on the butterfly flaps?
You can, but they're in there for a reason. Loss of low end torque would be the result.
Did you check timming belt tensioner??
Do the 2001s have those butterfly valves in the intake? Good video btw. I love my montero..
no
Awesome ❤

Btw. Why didn’t you just delete the butterfly valve system for peace of mind. Just curious
good question, i have heard, but never experienced myself, that it gives up quite a bit of low end torque, which to me is not worth it
Great !!!!!!
I have two Monteros free for you both run great but they need transmissions ..
2003 limited over 200k miles
2002 limited with 185k miles this one has lots of new parts
If you are interested let me know
man if i didn't have my hands full with the projects i have then i'd be interested, but as it sits i need to focus on the stuff i've got already. Thanks though!
Free?
How can you prevent the motor from eating the butterfly valves? And around what millage it usually happens?
i'm not sure about milage, i've seen all types. only way to prevent it is to check that they are tight, and fix the O ring
BR from Poland !! What is the cost of shipping a T-shirt to Poland? :)
i sent you an invoice
👍👍
What heavier weight oil did you run?
10w30

What problem could arise if they are not present, and if you had a similar issue, would you install swirl flaps?@@JohnnyBfromPeoria
Adds about 5% torque and power below 3.5k rpm
thank you man! And can you tell me about diff swap from 4.3 to 4.9 did you make this change ? How's that gonna affect the fuel consumption? Any direct observations? Because if i cant bring low this consumption i will sell the car :(@@chriskahn7123

Why did you not do a butterfly valve and rod delete?
Because there's a reason they are in there.
Gold nuggets :)
