    Engine Oil Level wierd issues - need advice

    Are you talking about the oil pressure guage? It fluctuates depending on rpm and throttle position. The guage in the dash is not an oil level guage.

    Is it possible to not burn any oil?

    The oil light comes on when the oil level is about 2 quarts low. It has nothing to do with oil pressure.

    Is it possible to not burn any oil?

    I don't use any oil. I change the oil at 6k intervals. 150k on an original 93 motor.

    New body for my engine

    I got the swap done a couple months ago. I did a leakdown and compression test on the motor and everything came out perfect so I decided not to open it up. Basically all the rubber under the hood was replaced, as were the fuel filter, spark plugs and wires, and battery wires. I already wish I...

    Fzj80 de-smog

    What year? My 93 was really easy to desmog. Newer ones are a pain. You must be having some search problems because there are lots of threads about it.

    probably a dumb question, anyone using 5w-20?

    The internal viscosity of a 5w-20 is much lower than that of a 10w-30 at operating temperatures. For the purpose of an engine this means that it creates a much thinner film on moving parts. The thinner film means lower friction between the moving parts and allows for better gas mileage. On the...

    preventive maint. items before engine goes back in?

    I did new plugs/wires, New engine and transmission mounts, All new heater hoses, vac lines, fuel lines, power steering hose, and trans cooler lines. Basically I replaced all the rubber under the hood. I wish I had rebuilt the power steering box and pump, and replaced the high pressure steering...

    I bought a boat but can't get past 30MPH!

    You're gonna have to get into it a little deeper than that. Compression? Maybe a valve adjustment would help. Is your throttle linkage adjusted? The FJ80's aren't fast, but they can go faster than 75 stock. Even with the tires you should be able to get going, maybe just a little slower...

    I bought a boat but can't get past 30MPH!

    Something is definitely wrong if you can't get past 75 empty, and 30 pulling a trailer.

    RTH Engine problem

    You sir are a gentleman and a saint. After cleaning and drying the distributer, changing the spark plugs, testing the VAF, testing the coolant temperature sensor, testing the fuel relay and resistor... I pulled the TPS, put my heat gun on it for a couple minutes and the problem is gone. Thanks!

    RTH Engine problem

    So I let the truck sit overnight and the problem didn't resolve itself. It basically acts like it redlines at just over 2k rpm. If I let it go that high it cuts out completely and the rpm drops to 1500 or so. It is also idles low. Any Ideas? I have a spare engine with all the electronics on...

    What to do with my 94

    94 with lockers, torn up interior, some oil leaks, in need of front end rebuild... probably worth 3k. Unless you want a land cruiser get something else.

    Question about heater temps...

    Mine gets hot enough that I turn it down to half or so once the car gets warmed up. The valve on the firewall probably needs adjusted.

    Did I Fry My Rheostat?

    It's fried. Toyota used the same parts on most of their vehicles, one out of a corolla or camary would probably work.

    RTH Engine problem

    So I was cleaning my engine a bit. (famous last words, I know.) Rinsed everything off, At first it had a really rough Idle. I pulled the distributor cap, dried it out, cleaned the contacts and now it idles smooth. But it's acting like it has a 2000 rpm redline. Also while it is at idle the...

    Locker question

    I thought post 93 they were all full floater axles with discs. Does yours have ABS? Both methods have been done. Probably harder to find, but cheaper to get used OEM lockers. Aftermarket is more expensive.

    No More FSMs?

    Ouch. I hope they print some more. I was hoping to get the electrical diagrams and Transmission book later.

    Auto shifting out of "L"

    Shift linkage needs adjusted? That would be my guess.
