First FJ40!!! - Build Up Thread - Whistle help???
First off I am a NEWBIE!!!! So bring on the ...
OK... I finally did it. I got my first 40 last week. Its basically a barn find from up in the GA mtns. A 1977 with 62K miles. Original everything... almost. Clutch, and timing belt replaced some time back. New front bumper and newer tires.
Thoughts anyone on what to do first... Want to keep it original looking and a daily driver.
Thinking of rebuilding the front knuckles and overall tune up. What I need help with first is diagnosing is a high pitched whistle at low RPMs. I was told by a friend that it may be a vacuum leak. Where do I start with that?
Here are the pix on my Picasa page:
