    the fuel system shouldnt be too complicated as its a low pressure system with no electrical pre pump. all you need is a line in to the fuel filter and pump and a return back, the engines themselves are much simpler than the fuel injected ones and will run with just a feed to the glow plugs and a feed to the fuel cut solenoid. good luck with it!

    Did you ever do this? I have a bad head gasket and I’ve been interested in a diesel conversion since day 1 of ownership. I’ve never done an engine swap but if it’s possible and not too crazy I could probably figure it out.

    Spacecruiser, at a 6100 ft elevation, you may want to reconsider the C and look at the Turbo version of the 2C. Then It gets a bit more complicated.

    Where did you get your 2C motor from?

    I stumbled upon this https://www.japandirectmotors.com/ve...orolla-diesel/

    the corolla that has the 2C motor in it.
