    He did try to run me over in the parking lot of a hotel on the way home, does that count?

    Are you sure it was only one or two times you wanted to chuck Mark underneath your truck? :lol:

    My Rubithon 2025 scorecard: 17 days away from home. 6180 miles driven from driveway to driveway towing an M416 with my 1997 LX450. She drank an additional 2 quarts of oil for the round trip. I can live with that. Damage: Scratched the...

    Other than the dust, it was a good time. Truck never really struggled with anything. Hats off to the organizers, trail leaders, and everyone else involved. Luckily, I found some Meguire's leather wipes at Walmart in Salt Lake. That was a close...

    Wow, great week. Did get to meet Woy & Jonheld, two really nice guys who threw down & traveled cross country to attend, thank you. Hope we lived up to the expectations. Didnt get to wheel with them or properly check out the rigs, next time...

    You and John were great, wheel with you guys anytime anywhere, John’s jokes and your responses really lightened things up, really glad you both came, we know it’s a long trip and greatly appreciate both of you..

    The tach is driven from igniter pin 4 (IG-) solid black wire. I have never put a scope on those, so I can't tell you if they look right or wrong. Since you were previously looking at the signals from the ECU and noticing them taking hits as the...

    3lb hand sledge and a brass drift from the wheel well side. Just a tiny weep. :)

    Yes. Codes are stored in memory. Active codes will throw a CEL when the engine is running and the CEL can clear on its own, but the code remains in memory. This is why it's important to clear codes when troubleshooting. This way you know you're...
  • jonheld
    If that were the case, you'd get an error code. The most common issues would be an intermittent fusible link or poor/corroded crimps/loose terminals in the relay box. I would suggest a bit of "percussive diagnostics". Give the EFI relay a tap...

    You need to go back on that path 1 step. IGT and IGF are reshaped and retimed by the ECU, but originate from the pickup coils in the distributor. You need to scope those 2 before they hit the ECU.
  • jonheld
    Negative. Jumping B+ to FP bypasses the FP logic (COR/FPR). The B+ comes from the EFI relay.

    Just guessing... 1) Excessive metal particles on the ABS sensors. 2) Bad ABS sensor. 3) Broken ABS wiring. Check for damaged wiring. 4) Excessive movement of a birfield. Check all bearings. 5) Excessive movement of rear hub. Check all...

    I use Excel. A single spreadsheet with tabs for each event. Copy the basic supply tab to the end, change the name, edit as you see fit. Color coded cell styles for easy identification. Simple, quick, effective. Been using the same file since 2007.

    LOL. After driving my 91 FJ80 for 20+ years, the speed limit is "go the fu*k around me".
  • jonheld
    This right here is the key to driving a 30 year old 80 Series. Folks should also do the math. Assuming no variation in ground speed over a distance of 100 miles, the time difference between 65 mph and 75 mph is 12 minutes. Your fuel economy...

    Mine is also my DD. 15K to 20K per year. I have 379K on it now, original HG done at 145K. Yes, I run up to and will hold 4000 RPM on mine, but doing that for a long run will burn more oil. My valve seals are getting old and weak (as yours...

    no. the bracket is different between the 80 amp and 90 amp unit. You need the 80 amp unit with the external fan.
