Is it reasonable to expect that a 2005 Toyota LandCruiser 78 Series Troopcarrier 4.2l diesel with aftermarket turbo would be able to tow a 2 tonne van comfortably without overheating or are we asking too much of it? We’ve fitted a TM1 Engine Watchdog and it’s set for 100C. It seems to take so little to set it off, ambient temperature over 30C and a moderate hill will do it. We’re getting to a point where we’re beginning to wonder whether there’s anything we can do that will fix the problem or it’s just symptomatic of the vehicle. Any guidance would be appreciated.
Thanks, Pete
