    For Sale  1984 FJ60 Smog/Air Pump Oregon

    I have a smog pump off my 60 desmogged so getting rid of it. Includes all hardware. Spins freely was disconnected when I got the 60, so pulled it out and got a manefre air pump eliminator kit. Not sure what they are we worth, I’m thinking $200 plus shipping.

    The PCV does have a rattle, interestingly enough, the other end of the hose is just hanging in the engine bay. Should it be hooked up somewhere else in a desmog? I did replace the fuel pump, looks like someone had used RTV on the block side. I also replaced the slave cylinder and flexible hose...

    I decided to drive it before I changed the fuel pump. Seems like there’s less power…did adjusting the valves do that, they were very tight? And how can I tell if the vacuum advance is actually opening up? It seems like I need to run the rpm’s higher in between shifts. The carb is still a piece...

    I connected my original 2 wire up, I did the disconnect test while running and the truck died. So it should be working correctly. What’s interesting is, every now and then, it will run flawless for a few hours….

    Hey Dan, Thanks for the insight! I read your story last month, what an adventure man. I appreciated it and truly respect your endeavor. I had take time away from the cruiser, traveling for work and the flu or whatever illness is going around Oregon. I finally had some time this evening and...

    I appreciate it, does anyone know what the stock jets are for an 84’ carb?

    So I’m thinking out loud here, when neutral it revs up fine, underload it does not in first gear. Could it be the smaller jet this carb comes with? I know city racer says on the website you may need to change the jet, but I’m at 265 feet above sea level. I’m lost guys. I can’t figure it out. So...

    City Racer Carb 84’ FJ60

    I decided to retune the carb again, just in case I missed something. It’s doing the same thing…dying at hard braking and hesitation/missing when accelerating under 2000rpms and the rpms drop below idle when revving the engine in neutral and then bounce back up. I went to check the timing but I...

    Perfect, I have had good luck with @ToyotaMatt and he has taken time to text me and even a call. I’m just wondering if that pump will work since it says 3F.

    Noted, the fuel filter is brand new and pointed in the right direction. Will order a new fuel pump today. Looks like Matt’s kit has everything I need? Or do I also need the “insulator?”

    I don’t have the port on my rig…I do see some oil coming from my fuel pump or something leaking and will address that with a new fuel pump but I don’t think that’s the issue.

    I have checked for vacuum leaks and nothing. I will verify the choke cable setting again. But the fuel pump was good when I pulled the old carb off. New carb on 30 minutes later and this issue. It’s interesting that it ran so well after manually pushing the choke linkage. Or was it disconnecting...

    Float level is just above the bottom notch on the window from the last time I took a picture. From what i understand this is passable.

    @camotubebemder, you were correct. Drove it to work this morning and back to the same issue. 3 things I did yesterday, cap those nipples, disconnect and reconnect the fuel fuel cutoff solenoid and manually push the choke linkage. And ran it great…
