have you taken the plastic covers off the top of the head and checked for water in the spark plug tubes? It sounds like there may be water in there +1 on what Marvelicious said about pressure washers as well, garden hose only I use and for...

You have to unplug everything electrical connector, blow it out and let it dry out.

I had time on my hand and decided to operate on the charcoal canister-LCP hack! Per @LandCruiserPhil instructions.

All comes down to maintenance that has been done. i.e. all coolant hoses, transmission hoses, brake lines, fuel lines/hoses, lubrication, etc. Brake pads etc. Belts. Basic toolbox with what you would need to replace a hose or change a spark...

Irish Reiver reacted to Marvelicious's post in the thread What is this cable supposed to be plugged into? with
Haha.
Careful with that. I'm pretty sure I saw them plug one of those into Patrick Stewart's head when he was taken by the Borg... Looks like multi-pair possibly shielded cable of some kind. I'd guess radio equipment of some kind. -

Yeah definitely. Lots of traffic means the trail is constantly changing. That first video I posted of the "Gauntlet", this is what it looked like in 2018. Almost unrecognizable at this point.

Every trail I have Run this year seems to be harder ! My guess is there getting used more = torn up, harder.

Get ready for some world class high end fabrication folks! Made my own block off plates from 3/8 plate I had kicking around.

Irish Reiver replied to the thread What Did You Do with Your 80 This Weekend?.I can't recall how much it takes as I just pour the oil onto a modified garden spayer which makes filling the diffs much quicker. I have used the Supertech gear oil from wally world for years. I don't see the point in over paying for oil when i...

Okay, you guys talked me into it. If I remember correctly 2 gallons / 8 quarts should be enough to do the t case with a part time kit and 2 diffs with arb's right? I think last time I used Lucas synthetic 75w-90 in all 3. That should be fine...

If it’s leaking that bad like others have said it needs to come apart. Never had a single issue with paper flange gaskets in 10 years of ownership. If everything is working properly gear oil should never reach that gasket. IMO adding permatex...

Clean up complete - and installed a window molle panel for storage options - next job get the rear shelf setup back in when carpets fully dry.. I wasn’t going to do both sides but I think i will now - got a deal on them!
-
Irish Reiver replied to the thread What Did You Do with Your 80 This Weekend?.I change the oil in the diffs when the clocks go forward. Any moisture, dirt etc. Picked up over the winter months is more or less gone in time for a summer of driving. Cost is less than a bar bill so makes sense to me.

It’s pretty cheap and easy to do. When in doubt, change it out?

Occasionally I boot up the 3d Printer and make a few things. I fixed my bad latch in the center console, and also drew up some rear door speaker spacers. Didn't get good photos of those though. My son is loving the 80 RC, and even drove it...

Please find another "mechanic" or reach out to a local LC group in your area for recommendations. There is no OBD1 code for "manifold pressure sensor", considering there is no manifold pressure sensor on a 3FE. What @Godwin posted is true, and...

Irish Reiver reacted to Kabanstva's post in the thread 1994 Landcruiser door w/flare fitment with Like.
If you look at the 91-92 cars, the flares were not as thick. They got bulkier (stick out more) on the 93-97 models. 93-94 and 95-97 look the same but the 93/94 are fiberglass 95/97 are ABS plastic. Mounting hardware/clips are also year specific.

She's home! I'm moving this month, so tearing into the engine will have to wait a few weeks. Will start with measuring compression, poking around with the borescope, dropping the oil pan to see what's what. My plan is to remove the entire...

To OP's question, I just got a new windshield last week and without tint, it's considerably better at blocking UV than what was on there before, and this is with the pretty intense UV we get here at 7k ft. The installer said many replacement...
