95 Landcruiser. New head gasket about 25,000 miles ago. Along with new water pump, thermostat, blue fan clutch, plugs, wires, distributor and some other items.
Had my mechanic put on a new blue fan clutch, alternator, and belts last week.
Everything I have bought is a OEM except for the blue fan clutch.
When I leave a red light and push on the gas, it sputters a little bit. But it goes, and at about 12 mph it goes great. I've driven across several states effortlessly for the most part.
The issue only occurs when stopped at a stop sign or red light and pushing on the gas.
If I push on the gas very gently it won't sputter at all.
I have been running 87 octane with Lucas fuel injector cleaner at every fill up.
It does it in first gear, in second gear when leaving a light as well.
No CEL.
I'm hesitant to bring it to Mechanic on my trip. Any suggestions?
