I realize now that I have left out some very important information. It is an 84 fj60. I just so happen to have a pump from the previous owner. I removed the tank, and drilled a 3" hole just above the fuel pick up and return baffle box. So far so good. I have to use a flexible hose to...
I am looking for a thread with a bit more information about installing an in-tank fuel pump for a tbi Chevrolet 350 install. First of all is there a thread that already addresses this install, or have anyone had experience with this mod. I would like to have the correct plan before I start...
So on the pic with the fuel pickup and return installed on the tank, I take it the pickup is the tube on the left and the return the line on the right. Am I correct. These were disconnected on my vehicle when I bought it, and I am trying to figure this out without dropping the tank. Thank you
The fuel pump is an inline pump. There is a fuel filter a short connector and a new 3/8 fuel line to the throttle body. I can put a fuel pressure gauge inline. Thank you 3_puppies. I have tried running with the gas cap off and the problem still exists. I was not sure how the return line...
Here goes. I purchased an 86 fj60 with a howell fuel injection system installed on a 5.7L Chevy. I have very little history to go off of. I am having problems with intermittent stalling. My gut feeling is that the delivery and return hoses may be backwards. Does anyone have a diagram of the...
My smog pump failed, so i went with the sor pulley. What is now abandoned and what is critical to the engine.
Someone said to plug off the air rail, but I am not sure of what to use. Any help is appreciated.
Be wary of the SOR smog pump eliminator pulley. Mine had only 600 miles on it before it failed. The belts were tightened properly but the culprit was a bering that was not pressed in correctly. It did not take long to eat away at the aluminum shaft. Mine is at a machine shop getting the...
Last summer I removed the smog piump and installed a sor pulley. The part seems to be of good quality, but with less than 1000 miles, mine has failed, The pulley wobbles and flops back and forth. Has anyone else had this problem? If you have, were you able to press a new bering in, or...
See here is my dilema, I have a 77 a 79 and now a 73 fj40. They are all in various states. My plan is to put the V8 into the 79 with the four speed and scraping the remainder of the parts. Nowhere to store a fourth cruiser. Oh the fourth is an 83 fj60 that is in need of a V8
thanks for your help, I am on my way to pick it up. 200 bucks for the whole shooting match. Plus the 283 has a functioning holley carb and a decent intake. I do not want the three speed tranny, but for the price. I can trade and swap for what I really need. Anyone need parts?
I just found an 73 FJ 40. It has a 283 chevrolet V8 in it now. I was wondering if the bell housing adapter that is on this setup right now would fit on to a 79 fj with the four speed tranny. Also what do you think about the 283v8 motor anyway. Is it a sibling of a 327 or a 350. And finally...
I have a 83 fj-60. The previous owner had messed with the drivers side rear window regulator. It seems that he pryed open the channel that retains the window. Since that has not held the window like it should. Is it something that needs to be pressed on, or do I have to replace the window...
