Hi, Ive have a prob that I hope someone can help me with.
When I shut down my troopy(2000 1hz) the hole car shakes, even when I start it, It seems to do the same thing, it shakes the car, then its fine until I need to start/stop it again.
Its nothing like it is running on, the problems started happerning in the last 20,000kms.My troopys got just ova 100,000kms.
The only thing that i think it could be is the fuel shut of solieniod is a little sticky.
Ive got my local mechanic to
check the engine/gearbox mounts, which are ok.
so that leaves me........lost.

I experienced this phenomen at around 60,000kms after filling up with fuel at a place north of
Broken Hill. (one tank only)
On start up there was a couple of large thumps, shaking and black smoke, then even running until shut down which was the same.
On arriving at Innaminca I refueled that tank and did the same at
Birdsville.
Guess what - no more weird starts and shutdowns.
I have put it down to fuel diluted with who knows whatever.
It might therefore be a cheap
test to fill the tanks with either BP or SHELL from a filling station that has a large through put and see what happens.
I always use BP regardless of the cost as it supposed to be the 'purest' here in Aust and if you show constant use through dockets and there is a fuel related problem they will come to the 'party' re repairs.
