    Random 70 series pic thread

    Started collecting a few photos of 70's I see in the local area. Most are 2H diesel powered, some 3F, and the ultra rare 1FZ-FE (Ambulance/Fire Dept) Some hard years of work duties have seemed to leave a few beauty scars. Some scars look worse than others though....

    BJ74 Poptop, modular top camper or something

    I really wanted to see what this would look like, just a 3 min MS Paint attempt! Actual scale may vary. Not sure if this is someone's MWB here but it sure as heck is one of my favourites

    Builds Silver Bullet - BJ74 Tough Offroad all rounder buildup

    Far out what an epic thread! I often read what others have done to their MWBs for inspiration on what I can do on my FJ73. Your engine bay is gagging for an episode of "while I'm here, I may as well..." and then the next 3 to 6 months disappear hehe! Is there anything you would have done...

    Rebuilding 2F and Fuel injection Or 1Fz swap

    When you mention Fuel Injection Kit, do you mean a Holley Sniper? I would say that would be a hell of alot easier than a 1FZ swap. To be honest I think the 1FZ factory EFI system is slighlty agricultural and complex for conversion purposes. It is still a very solid setup though. Maybe if you...

    GCC-spec 3F engine won’t idle

    I have been attempting to sort my 3F out, and found the following: Vac Lines, were total mayhem, things disconnected and not on the right port etc. The fuel vapour routing is what I'm struggling with currently. The tiny circle rubber gasket that seals the Secondary Vacuum diaphragm body to...

    GCC-spec 3F engine won’t idle

    It is a little different that what I have seen here in Aus, but it sure looks like a tamper proof device One solution could be to replace it with a new screw, and keep the factory spec one for if you need to have a EPA inspection 2F 3F Carburetor Idle Adjustment Screw for Land Cruiser FJ40 FJ55...

    Help with 3F Carb Vac lines (Australia FJ73)

    Thankyou Juan, I thought I was doing something wrong! Unfortunately in the sign up process I cannot view the 'captcha' security image, my pc is quite archaic. I did however get some momentum in fixing things up while reading this thread: How many different vacuum ports on Aisan (3)F carburetor...

    What did you do on your 70 series today?

    Today I attempted to adjust the timing on my 3F, there was some difficulty getting a good signal for my timing light (may be a sensitivity issue?) I then inspected the distributor and really have no idea what Im looking at. It appears to be some sort of optical sensor and slotted wheel? I am not...

    Help with 3F Carb Vac lines (Australia FJ73)

    Hi all, Im having difficulty un-fking the spaghetti monster Vac Lines on my 3F. I have seen various discussions on the FJ60 routing, but there are so many conflicting diagrams and info! I have a 1986 3F FJ73, with power steer, air con (not working...) and Auto A440f The carb has a diaphragm...
