Hi

I have just completed converting a 1998 4x4 turbo daily into a camper home, it has a 2.8 turbo motor, can anyone tell me the model?
I have also fitted reversing sensors but cant find the reversing light switch, the donor chassis is ex military and the reversing lights are lying somewhere in the bush in Angola.

any info will be greatly appreciated

roger

Hi,

If I remember well, there are two sensors: the engine rpm and speed sensor, and two switches: reverse light, and 4x4 engagement indicator.
Reverse switch is on the gear selection lever support, in the back side, on 4x2 models. On 4x4 models I'm not sure, may be on the same support, but in sideways.
It has a connector with two white wires, with code 2268(ignition positive) and 2227(to the lamps).

There are only two models 35.10W, or 40.10W, which is 3.5 T or 4.0 T and 100 hp.
The engine is turbocharged direct injection, without intercooler, type 8140.23.38.

Hi,

Iveco 3.0L engines are another generation, have EDC, that mean are electronically controlled.
The only solution to increase the power is to change the injection pump and add an intercooler.
Your engine type is 8140.23.38= 2.8L, Max.power 106Hp, Bosch type injection pump is R 657.
The engine type 8140.23.37 (the most powerful from his generation) = 2.8L, Max. power 120Hp, Bosch type injection pump is R660 + intercooler.
