    '92 A/C convert to r134a Schrader valve ???

    The A/C has not worked on my '92 since I bought it. It needs new compressor and the whole system flushed and new expansion valve and dryer. I want to convert it to r134a, which is no big deal except for the Schrader valve connectors. I would like to have the r134a connectors, not just adapters...

    Halp!... Ignition lock cylinder fail

    My wife's '97 ignition lock cylinder has failed. Yesterday evening she called and said she couldn't get it started. Key would not turn. I had her jiggle the key and eventually she got it started. Her key is more worn than mine. so I swapped keys with her when she got home and my key worked fine...

    Gen 3 4Runner fan on fj80?

    I was tearing down my '92 the other day and and placed the fan down next to a fan from a gen 3 4Runner with 3.4L and noticed they are very similar. The 4Runner blades have a lot more surface area, so I think it should move more air. It is also slightly larger diameter, but fits inside the fan...

    1992 3FE Missfire??? Now a Head Gasket Thread

    Yesterday morning my truck was running great. Came home after lunch and parked it. A couple hours later I started it to go get my daughter from school and it took a second longer to start and then was missing bad. No CEL and it does come on with just switch on. This afternoon I checked and no...

    Seats: Would this be reasonably doable?

    My '92 LC could really use some new front seats. I have an '02 Silverado and the seats are really nice and comfortable. I saw these on a facebook trade page and think it would be wonderful if I could make them work in my LC. Armrests and lumbar support in my 80 would be heavenly. I wonder if...

    Wife's FZJ80 fuel line frozen, starter dying...

    I love my wife more than life itself, but... She drives around with about 1/4 tank of gas all the time. I have tried and tried to get her to fill it up when it gets below 1/2 tank. Tried to explain about condensation inside tank and cooling of fuel pump. She does not listen. She will run it...

    He's dead, Jim.

    I guess it's new radidiator time for the old '92. I changed oil and filter and replaced the fusible links this morning. This is what happened when I cranked it and let it run a few minutes. I can't get embed to work, so you will have to click the link...

    Impulse buy '97 and '98 4Runners

    This morning on the way to a doctor appointment I saw a couple of 4Runners for sale. I stopped to look on the way on the way home. Both are 3.4L v6 with auto. The '98 is a limited and has factory e-locker. Has damage on front end from hitting a deer. Needs bumper, headlights, and a/c condenser...

    Finally! And a pleasant surprise

    My 1992 LC has been driving me nuts for a few months. Running good for the most part, but did not want to drop down gears when accelerator applied and slow acceleration even for a 3FE. It has always seemed like it did not want to downshift right. I had to really stomp the accelerator to get it...

    What's that clicking noise?

    Last spring I put a set of Aisin locking hubs on the front of my '92 so that I could go 2wd. I ran it all summer and fall with the hubs unlocked and center diff locked with no problems and no strange noises. I even got a 0.3 mpg fuel economy increase! Early in the winter we got some ice, so I...

    Spartan Lockers ???

    I guess the next step for my '92 is lockers. Been looking at different ones. Running lines for air or e-lockers doesn't appeal to me. I'm looking at the Spartan auto lockers as the best bang for the buck. Anyone with experience with these? I only see one listed for my 80. Does anyone know...

    1975 fj40, is it worth it?

    I'm an 80 series owner and halfast mechanic. I'm always on the lookout for a new "project" and ran across this Craigslist ad for an fj40 rolling chassis a couple hours away. I know next to nothing about the 40 series. Not sure what I would do about a drivetrain for it. It would probably be...

    Door lock cylinder

    My wife's '97 had the rear hatch replaced at some point before I bought it. Never noticed until the other day that the key does not fit the lock on it. Is it possible to get a new lock cylinder to fit the original key? Can this one be modified to fit the key?

    '92 FJ80 power loss?

    The other day on my way home from work my '92 with 3FE suddenly lost power. Engine still running, just would not accelerate. Like it was either starving for fuel or timing retarded. At same time, transmission kept going back and forth from 2nd to 3rd. I pulled over and it idled high. Pressing...

    Heater Woes

    The heat and defrost on my '92 has not been working well this winter. It just does not get hot, takes forever to defrost the windshield, and will frost back up going down the road when it's really cold. Rear heat works OK. I'm off work today and it is unseasonably warm out, so I decided to back...

    Oil level sensor?

    The low oil light on my wife's '97 fzj80 has coming on intermittently for about the past three weeks. The gauge shows good pressure and oil level is not low. I figure it is probably the sensor, but I don't know where it is. Anybody got a pic or something? Thanks.

    Help, please... '96 Pathfinder alarm/remote problems

    A couple of weeks ago my daughter's 1996 Pathfinder decided it would not let us lock the doors with the remote. Unlock and panic buttons still work. I have three remotes programed to it and all do the same. A few days later the alarm started going off randomly. The frequency of the alarm going...
