    I have a pretty dry sense of humor so that’s how I took it and laughed!

    Sh@#. That’s it. The speedo said 100 and my gps 62! No, but I was wondering why some speedos go to 160. I thought that they were very optimistic.

    Thanks for the links. I still have the 3 speed. I’ll try to figure out the answers to the other questions.

    Speedometer reading high

    I have a 71 FJ40 and the speedometer reads high. There are many posts here about tires and errors but not this. At 60 on my gps, the speedo says 70. Assuming that the speedometer came reading up to 4mph high I’m 6 mph or 10% off. In my way of thinking it should be because the tires on it now...

    I left a message and I’ll call but I read some of your soapbox. The lesson I tried to teach my children is similar to your third. I tried to teach them to love God, their neighbors and themselves as much as possible and that all people are their neighbors. My petition for an additional quote...

    Just to note they didn’t sell me on it being a match for my year. They offered it and let me research. I said yes thinking I’d only need the insulator.

    Okay. Here’s what I’ve got. You can see my throttle and choke cables, or what’s left of them. I’m definitely needing to replace both no matter what the option but I’m wondering if I sell this one and get the right year if I’d need anything else.

    I wonder if I should start over and look for the correct year carburetor.

    Seems like a slippery slope. I think that if I had one from 71 I’d only need an accelerator and choke cable. I picked up the insulator.

    Perfect thank you for the pictures. Seems like the linkage I have requires the metal rods to even engage the secondary. I’m pretty sure the later linkage is the route I’m gonna go.

    Thx. I was pretty sure that there was more linkage than I needed on the TOYO-600 carb they gave me. Even more reason I need pictures.

    That’s not my truck. It’s the one that I found with a picture. My carburetor is here. Behind the spring is the choke clamp. But no throttle clamp. BTW I wish that was my truck.
