Is anybody in the Norfolk/VA Beach interested in replacing my PHH on my 1995 FJ80 1FZ. I’m having some back issues and can’t really get in a comfortable position to do. I’m willing to pay whoever has the time to do it. Thanks. Text me at7576095843 if you are interested. I’m in the East...
Romer, I did the heater by-pass due to the large amount of coolant leaking, i suspected that this loss of coolant was why I was overheating originally. Yes I meant overflow bottle. Theromstat is about 5 years old, Fan Clutch never messed with it, Coolant in the radiator was low so I added half...
Did the rear heater by-pass today(PITA), verified all the plumbing was correct from the various threads here on MUD. Started her up and temp gauge reached just below red zone. I did not notice any coolant leaking, I had coolant in the resivior, what is the next logical place to check as I chase...
What would be a resonable amount for a shop to replace all 4 Universal joints on my 95 LC Locked? I have the parts, but really don't have the time, and its getting cold out on the East Coast. Thanks
I would like to check the horn contacts on the steering wheel of my 1995 LC. To get a good look at them I would have to remove the plastic cover over the airbag, I plan on disabling the steering wheel airbag (remove airbag fuse, remove negative battery cable and wait 90 seconds). My question is...
Welcome to the LC Club. May your pockets be deep. J/K, keep up with the PM and the LC will treat you well. This forum has been great, cool people with lots of good advice.
Do you hear your knock the entire time after its been started. My wife will bust me ass if this rig needs a new engine. I told her it was just minor so she agreed to let me get another.
Yea that was the one. I bought it for 2K. Upon further investigation it does have a knock, faint at idle, but knock and sound of knock increase on acceleration. Oil pressure gauge is at the stop almost at idle, but when I accelerate it goes to normal range. He said he had the rod bearings...
I have an update, I noticed upon some further driving and listening to the engine, the knock is very faint while driving as well, speeds up upon acceleration and gets a bit louder. Additionally I noticed the oil pressure drops almost all the way on the gauge when at idle, then goes back to...
Guys, I bought another 80, with 151 K, no lockers. Owner claims it needs an new engine. His mech at carmax told him so. I took it out for a drive, only thing I noticed out of place was 5 or so knocks upon start up (loud), then it stops and drives normal. All fluids were a bit low, but looked...
I happens everytime it is started that I'm aware of. He did mention that they replaced the engine rod bearings, the rear seal and both oil gaskets recently. It sounds like a loud tapping in quick sucession, then it sounds normal. When I drove it no unusual smoke out ot the exahust and all...
