Xud7 te to xud9 te

Post by Xm25td »

Hi all,
I have tzd bx with xud7te engine, cambelt skipped camshaft and cam caps broke off so i need new head, i have a cheap engine oportunity but its a xud9 te, i has a different intake on it and injection pump has some wires on it i think its for timing advance and there is vacuum pump on camshaft end instead of hydraulic pump pulley. Engine doesnt come with injection pump!
What i was thinking is heads look the same so i can swap my intake manifold, i can remove vacuum pump and install hydraulic pulley? And last most importat is can i swap my bosch injection pump and injectors from xud7te to xud9te??

You will need a bx camshaft as it has the spigot for the pulley.
Sourcing a XUD7TE head shouldn't be too difficult.

But i have a xud9 n/a camshaft at home and pulley fits same as in xud7te so why is there any difference on xud9 te?

Not sure on that, but if you can source an xud9 bx 1.9n/a camshaft you can use it on an XUD7TE head, it just makes it more torquey at lower rpm's but a little flatter top end, the pulleys are the same for all diesels and are interchangeable, petrol engine pulleys are smaller.
Dependent on the damage to your head/caps you may just get away with a cam swap.
Not quite that simple but you get the picture.
