    Water in Oil pan

    I was recently was forced to move my FJ40 to higher ground in Houston and now have water in my oil and steam coming from exhaust, the oil is slightly milky, it seems to idle fine and is not difficult to start..What would be the best course of action to prevent damage or more damage..

    Valves again..

    I have good compression I can hear the compression on 1#.When half are opened and half are closed do they have a sequence to adjust or just check the gap adjust and move to the next depending on intake and exhaust? Is it better to do hot or cold and what about once adjusted do I have to do the...

    No stabbing distributor...I had head done and since then I have a very noisy valve..Im just trying to make sure I'm doing it correctly but all the marks everyone says they have don't exist or I'm not seeing until bigredrocker pointed out maybe it's just to dirty to see..My question...

    Valves again..

    I have a 67 FJ40 with an F block and 2F head...Recently had head done and have had help adjusting valves...I can't find TDC mark on fly wheel is there anyway to adjust them without the mark...The only thing on flywheel I can find is a square and the needle and notch but no BB or or line..

    Valve Adjustment

    I agree and have learned my lesson in other ways about driving it to see of it fails...I will have the rods looked at next time I take it in to have valves adjusted or may have another shop look to get a 2nd opnion...I just don't understand why it's doing it now and not prior to the head gasket...

    Valve Adjustment

    The shop has been very good about re adjusting the valve..They said that the push rods are good...And that having solid valves is the problem..They need constant readjustment..They say to drive the crap out it so they can see if the stud is coming out of the head...I think they would of known by...

    Valve Adjustment

    Have a 67 FJ40 with an F block and 2F head...The head gasket went on it..Since I've gotten it back the #5 intake valve nut keeps breaking loose and causing a very loud tick..After adjustment it will run fine for about 50 to 100 miles then break loose again normally after cold startup sometimes...

    All Show No Go

    Well I ended up pulling the Master again and adjusting it and then at the slave. The master I bought wasn't adjusted well and I had to screw with the slave rod length as well but it seems to be working ok as of now. But if it isn't the lengths what about your pressure plate was causing trouble?

    Tick tick tick

    @ Pighead thanks for noticing what I call my 1967 FJ40 aka Toyota Land Cruiser. My FJ as I call it earned those letters at least 25 years before the Cruisers even came out as I call them. So please do me a favor and dont distract from the simple an honest question I asked and the other forum...
