I only installed the EGR bypass plug and left every thing else alone. After a few years my 80 continues to run well with no CEL. I also live in a California county that does not require smog testing. My knowledge is way too limited to comment on a low temp code. I’ll throw in this unrelated...

I shotgun’d my EGR CEL woes by replacing the EGR valve, modulator, vsv and vacuum tubes. The problem continued. I did not attack the TB and ports others have suggested. Maybe I should have. Finally got a temp sensor salvaged from a supposedly functioning EGR system. That changed the near...

I have a ‘94. Have replaced all EGR components with new OEM except a used sensor off a functioning engine. Still getting error codes for EGR! I live in Ca but in a county not requiring smog checks. Can I simply use your bypass plug and not block the vacuum tubes? I do not think I care about EGR...

The car painter had the wheels powder coated

Paint by Mudrak Custom Cruisers in Sonoma, CA Upholstery by Teeters and Schacht, Novato, CA both shops very high level of knowledge and craftsmanship but, not cheap, worth the money, but one needs a big wallet

windshield wiper motor dying is sending me into “part not available” conundrum. Maybe heading off into the salvage yard direction

Finished a big refurbishing; re-upholstered front seats, total paint job in stock red, with all new door/window seals, trim; new ARB bull front bumper; new Pioneer radio then my CEL just came on !! DTC‘s 25,26 and 71 replaced EGR valve, modulator, and VSV; cleaned both O2 sensors which otherwise...

Sorry, seems I butted in. It sounds like you want to surface mount on the door panel. I took my door panel off and mounted the speaker to the door frame like the stock speaker.

I used the 1645’s. As the front door OEM speaker grills are attached to the door panel, I left them intact with no fitment issues over the new 1645’s

My ‘94’s hatch defogger has been essentially non-functional for a decade. I,too, only had a whisp of defog on one or two middle rows. I decided to get into it. I read the FSM pages, got out my ohm meter and found that I had 14v current at the connector tabs. I had a completely open circuit, no...

Just finished front and back door speaker replacement on my ‘94 FZJ80. Front door holes are very shallow per window track behind it, ergo the funny pancake OEM’ s. I found as others have that Pioneer TS-G1645 6.5“ speakers work fine without any door frame or panel modification. Just break off...

Just finished my f/r door speaker replacement on my ‘94 fzj80. Appreciate all previous posts. They made this easy. I used Pioneer TS-G1645R on front both of which had no remaining cone and were completely dead for years. Trimmed off four mounting ears allowing flush fit to door frame and used...

Now I am a bit confused. So, 80 series Al is not referring to a 94 model? The section of dash surrounding the stereo does extend in a narrow strip across top of steering column to end at driver’s door. Is there something more I should know?
