WTB 1mm oversized 1.5d pistons

[Dieselpower74]

Just seeing if some has 1mm oversized 1.5d pistons set or even .5mm pistons set . I would like to get my 1.5d back.

Is the bore so bad you need .040"/1.0mm over. They usually clean before .5mm. Why put that much money in a 1.5?

Well I didn't check it  didn't have a dile bore geage but it needs a bore I know that it's has the worst blow by and won't start with out ether. And why is because everything is new in the engine except oversized pistons. New main bearings rods bearings new head and head gasket with arps. Some though they could get buy with just a re ring

Correction: after using ether in this engine, the pre-cups in this head probably no longer qualify as being "newish." They may well be tetering on the edge of a cliff.

Heads fine I had it checked. I was worried.  But back to the topic dose anyone have pistons set for 1.5

I do not think anyone will have them, I think they quit making them.

I really think you should consider the advice of people on here. What did you check in the head exactly? If the glowplugs were working you probably should not use that head again, especially if you are putting money into the bottom end. The weakest point of these engine are the precups in the head, using ether is a death sentence on them. Good luck.

Ya that why I put a post on here just to see if anyone has any.

And thank you.
