That's good to know. I'm not sure what kit the engine shop used but I do have the leftover box so I'll check that when I get back

This helps a ton. Thanks @Steamer !!

The picture with the red bolts isn't my engine. It's just a random picture from the internet. I wasn't able to take a picture of my own because I have the radiator in. But the issues with length do make sense and definitely worth looking into

Well the shop did have to touch the oil squirter because the engine was a basket case so this might be another issue as well. Thanks @73FJ40

That helps a ton. I will look into the bolts I have now on the rig to see if that is my issue. Like I said before the bolt heads are mismatched so they definitely aren't JIS

That would make sense. I will dig throught the FSM more to see what it says about that oil squirter. Thanks @Pighead Yeah I remember see that somewhere. The bolt heads are mismatched I'm guessing because of the engine shop having to order different ones which means they might have used the...

Once I take the Timing Cover off would this be easily noticed? And how far should the oil squirter be screwed in? I'm guessing the FSM will tell me more info but just trying to gather as much as I can here

I should also add this is a 2F engine in a 1975 FJ40

Hello! I am looking for the 2 Manifold Vacuum Unions and Plug that go to the circled connections in the pictures below. This manifold is for a 1975 FJ40. I believe the parts numbers are below but they might not be correct. 90917-11006(Union)-Orange Circle 90345-51005(Plug)-Red Circle...

Great! That answers both my questions, JohnnyC! Thank you!

Oh hell yeah! That helps me a ton thank you! Hopefully you or someone else can answer these other questions I have below- 1: We want the intake to be closed for TDC correct? 2: Do I have the rockers labeled correctly below for the 1st cylinder? (Blue "Ex" is exhaust, Red "In" is intake) Much...

Hey yall, newbie home mechanic here who has very little knowledge on engines but currently working on a 1975 FJ40. I got my 2F engine rebuilt and have it in the rig and I am trying to get the engine at TDC on the 1st Cylinder on the compression stroke however I have no idea which way the crank...
