Thanks for the imput!

Hi there. Have a 71 fj40 with 350 and turbo 400 auto trans. It's shifted fine for as long as I've had it, but the other day it wouldn't shift into park. And just got worse from there. I pulled off the b&m shifter cover and took a look at the cable and I'm a bit baffled. It looks like the...

Thanks for the helpful diagrams! As far as me messing with the wires.. Well I bought the 71 fj40 used, and it has Chevy power steering and tilt column installed by the previous owner. When I first drove it home, the turn signals worked (rear only) The fronts lights weren't even hooked up...

I'm having the same problem.. Turn signals don't work, but hazards do work. Turn signals worked when I first got it for a while, but then just all the sudden stopped working, and now both the dash turn signal indicators lights come on when I push on the break pedal, as well as the front turn...

That is what I was thinking as well. That's an awful lot of rusty bolt to come through that hole. I was thinking since it snapped pretty easy if I could just break it off with a sharp chisle, but I may have to seek out a dremel for that. I will also consider crazygreeks suggestion of just...

So I'm trying to take my hardtop off into 3 pieces due to lack of storage space and the fact that it is only me and I have no help. Also I'd like to replace these old bolts anyway. I'm trying to take off the fiberglass hardtop bolts and so far 3 of 3 have snapped right in half like they are...

I'll also be following this thread with interest.. since neither my turn signals, nor my blinkers are working at the moment either. The turn signals did work for a little while then one day stopped. The wipers wouldn't have worked anyway because they were full of 40 yr old grease, which I...

I have the "new" wave. I really like it, but I wish it had an awl rather than a teeny tiny screwdriver for glasses. I thought it would make a good pick if nothing else. Don't pry too hard on it or it will snap right off. Other than that, I love the locking mechanisms and the blades are sweet.

I thought about recommending the Thermarest, but it seems about 20 people already beat me to the punch. I got the green one, little fatter because I'm a side sleeper and it's long. I paid around 80 bucks. As soon as I tried it in my living room, I fell asleep right away. As good, if not...

I've adjusted it a couple times and it seems as it get's warmed up it starts kicking out of gear. It was worse until I adjusted. But now even when the bike is cold it doesn't really turn the motor very well. Almost like it's just slipping, and no compression. I just adjusted it again a...

I know this is a few years old, but I'm getting ready to replace the clutch on my CT110 and this is going to be very helpful. I noticed the kick starter won't even roll the engine over, so since I'm going in anyway to examine the shift drum stopper (shifting problems/false neutrals) I figured...

What city are you located? I'm in Chico. I may be interested.. Thanks, -K

I had a fuse burn out on me the other day, and it looked good until I pulled it out, and the sucker had burned all the way at the very edge. Couldn't even see it unless you pulled it out.

I'm having the same issue.. Works in first postion but not second!
