Sorry I should’ve worded that better. The connector on the LC currently is the correct connector it’s just not original to the vehicle and seems as it was changed at some point in time. The pigtails that this connector has are all white, so I’m sure the previous owner just wired it up however...

Yes, I tested that one as well and found it to be good. I just confirmed that it is not an OEM connector, but it has seven white wires that are probably just connected to the harness's wires, whichever way. Would this cause the LC not to read it, as it may not be wired correctly to the specific...

Ok, the two AFM I have purchased, one of them is the correct one for the 91 FJ80. I sourced the same part number you provided to ensure I was buying the correct one. Bolts and seals right up, but the LC won't read it and therefore has no CEL, so no start. The other AFM I have used is from the...

I do not believe it is the correct AFM though because of the rough idle, bogging down and not sealing correctly. For example the intake tube is way to big for the diameter of the afm opening I have to crank down on the hose clamp on the intake tube just to get a tight seal and I know that’s not...

Since you have posted @jonheld I have gone through the 3fe diagnostic cheat sheet like 3 times making sure I have not missed anything and I have all 12v where I need it even checked the grounds making sure they are good. So when I go to plug in my “new” correct AFM the check engine light still...

Has not been running right at all. Rough idle, bogs down, etc. Aside from that had a large gap where AFM bolts up to the air box lid. The bracket with the one 10 mm that has the two holes wouldn’t line up at all and the diameter size of the hole was MUCH smaller then the size of the “new”...

I recently purchased a "new" remanufactured AFM after discovering the one on my Land Cruiser was not the correct AFM. However, when I plug in the "new" AFM, the Check engine light does not illuminate anymore, and it will not start now. If I plug the old one back in, the check engine light...

Yes, I was able to open it without anything being damaged.

The "gear" teeth on the top portion of the picture are what I adjusted.

Also, I forgot to mention that while all the symptoms are presenting themselves, the AC is on and in gear. If I turn the AC back off and the LC is in gear or park, it will smooth itself out, idle back to 650-800ish, and the black smoke disappears as if nothing is wrong with it.

Thank you for replying! I inspected the intake tube as you suggested, and found no visible cracks in the bellows section or anywhere else on the intake tubing. I am new to the Land Cruiser addiction, so bear with me as I am also a weekend mechanic trying to do the work myself. It has been doing...

I have a 1991 FJ80 3FE, and I'm having trouble figuring out what's going on with it. It starts up perfectly fine, idles around 650-800ish, and idles a little higher when the AC is turned on. When I shift into gear, reverse, or drive, visible black smoke starts coming out from the tailpipe, and...
