Dan has one of these old anchors that lost some of the magic smoke. I've just repaired it after reverse engineering the schematic. Both small signal transistors were dead as well as the zener. Looks like Q702 died and caused a chain reaction...

Just noticed you are in Oz! I am by no means an eggspurt but hopefully that it what it is. If the shaft can wiggle around , the bearing is loose, it also causes oil leaks needless to say. It can be difficult to get the shims in Oz. I got some...

Are you sure it is bent? It maybe the bearing preload shim needs to be replaced/repacked with a thicker one, which I had to do once when my driveshaft bolts came loose, after heavy towing. I drove for around 200km with a vibration over 80kmh...

Here marks the end of the "friend's shop" time; some photos before getting to the house after registration, insurance and tax payement. roof rack and tent installed, on the road going home to finish little things ! :) :) :)

I did this on my 15bf to keep the dirt dobbers out.

It is quite common to use the most recent repair manual. When you tight the bearing cap bolts (B/2B/3B Diesel) you should be very careful with the manuals. For this family diesel engine Toyota published several manuals. Widely available at least...

Pricey.. but if you're after quality of ride then parabolics should be a consideration.. https://www.terraintamer.com/estore/suspkit-inc-shocks-sprgs-bushes-pin-kits-str-damper-u-bolts-4

My one-owner HJ61 from Spain is at the uphoulstery shop right now to have the seats sewn with a fun Scottish tartan wool. Then it heads on a ship for America! The suspension is, as far as I can tell, original and quite tired. With a new...

When it arrives you’ve got to show us the “seats sewn with a FUN Scottish tartan wool”! That alone would be an off-road comfort experience for me.

I believe just the three bolts, but you have to jack/lift your engine up a bit to remove the mount then ( so the stud can slide out of the upper bracket ).

What engine is this? Why not just vent it to your intake manifold? Or if its turboed to a pre-turbo air intake position?

With the help of a friend to help keep things held down + a plastic deadblow hammer and some strong whacks, we were able to get the turbine outlet elbow off the turbo. I measured axial shaft play at 0.178 mm, so it's definitely time to make the...

Not to toot my own horn... but the unrestored project truck I have listed for $32,500 would require observably less work to baseline than the red firetruck. A carb'd 1FZ would be far superior to a 3B... and the H150 is such a smoother...

For the past year I was experiencing the dreaded no start, turn the key and clicking then after ten turns BAM it would start eventually 20 turns. Not every time of course but definitely after a long ride or the local liquor store run. I went into...

I think you need an Auto Electrician at this point.. I have no confidence that your original harness is intact and that you're not running a bit of a dogs breakfast of internal regulation/external regulation wiring. The pinout diagram I have...

I replaced that blue boost hose with proper stuff.

Dropped the oil it did look old, popped the cover off all looked as normal and all moved freely no springs were loose they all felt good, I pulled the back diaphram cover off to just to make sure I had it on right and it was all good. Replaced...

Green plug needs to be checked for correct conditions to excite alternator.. diagram orientation is looking into the plug on the alternator.. as per description. Best done with an incandescent test lamp, not a digital meter.

30A may not be sufficient, especially if you were to turn on spotlights etc.. I suspect your fault is not in your white wire though. A proper diagnosis of your alternator wiring needs to occur.

You have a fault? You should test continuity between your B+ Alternator Stud and the positive terminal on your battery. Fusible links will be somewhere just downstream of the positive terminal of your battery.. but after so many years its...

Yes white wire is correctly connected.

also check the fan blade clutch works properly

How far have you wound it in? Enough that power is impacted? I am wondering if the rack is stuck in the full open position.. I would consider taking off the side inspection plate of the pump and operating the fuel control lever.. the plate is...
