Thanks gang I just bought a used one from FJparts for 35.00 bucks.

Yes it like the one in the photo. The line on the right side of it. It is leaking where the vapor line connects to the bottom of that. The rubber piece is in the bottom of it. As soon as I move the line you hear it leak out. I think I need to get a new one. Seems like it is original.

It seems like the little rubber gasket pieces on the bottom of my separator are bad. If I move them they pull out of the bottom of it. As soon as I move the line you can hear the vapor leaking out. I have had a fuel odor in the cruiser since I got it. I found a fuel hose leaking under the seat...

Thanks Thanks for the help i will check that out and see if that fixes the problem.

I have a 1975 fj40.It will start up on first try.I am still having a problem trying to find out why it will not start as quick as it does when it is cold. If i run it for more then 15 or 20 min and i turn it off it is to the point of having to jump start it. I have spoken to some non cruiser...

Thanks Thanks for the help i will check out all the above advice when i get home. I was thinking since i have not driven a car with a carb on it for years that maybe it was just the fuel left in the carb after i turned it off.

fixing it Did you have to change the fuel pump to fix it or is there a way to clean the weeping hole out.Im a novice still learning. Also is it a easy fix to change the gasket on the sending unit? Thanks again
