I was able to get it out once I figured out how to use the holding tool. Thanks for your input.

And there it is. Can’t believe that didn’t cross my mind. I was hung up on the tool looking like it was bolted into a different home in the illustration. Thank you so much.

How are you keeping the pump from rotating when you’re getting the nut off? I even have the special service tool, but it only points at one point and it spins every time I try to turn the nut.

I assumed the nut would keep it from sliding back. The only photos I’ve seen of pumps removed had the shaft threads exposed / the nut off. If that’s not the case, I’d be glad to go ahead and push it out once it’s unbolted. That would be welcome news.

I’m in the process of removing my pump for reconditioning. The injectors are already out, and the hard fuel lines are off. I’m essentially following the FSM protocol (FU-28) but I’m stuck at step 14a - removal of the injection pump drive set nut. I have the special service tool. I’ve tried...

Is there a way to it without removing the fuel lines.

I figured it out! After replacing the motor, replacing blades, etc - the only thing left was the wiper linkage. I put in a new OEM linkage and now everything is smooth as silk. The old one looked quite rusty. It felt smooth when moving it by hand until I had a new one side by side to compare...

After sleeping on it, I figured it out. Once the motor is detached from the firewall, you can manually move the wipers up the windshield. This moves the linkage so that you can deliver the joint between motor and linkage through the service port without trying to perform endoscopic surgery in...

I have a 91 HDJ81, and the wipers have moved slowly since purchase. It has fresh blades, the wiper motor has just been replaced. With wiper arms detached, the motor sounds normal and speed varies with switch input as expected. With wiper arms on, it moves at a crawl. I replaced the motor...

Unfortunately, my ‘91 doesn’t look quite like that. The motor linkage has a smooth ball on it and the linkage has a blind ended cup. There is no metal tab on the linkage. This was supposed to be a simple job and now it’s driving me crazy! I know this is the 100 series thread, but I couldn’t...

I’m in the midst of this repair now. I can’t get the ball joint back together with the motor intact. Every time I push the motor in, the linkage scoots back and I can’t get it to connect. Any tips?

I got it from Duncan Imports in Christiansburg. They have a huge selection of JDM cars - some in a personal collection and some for sale. Worth checking out if you’re ever in the area.

Thanks! I’ll check that out today.

Hello all! I just acquired a 1991 HDJ81 recently imported from Japan with 150,000 Km. I’ve started to change all fluids and I’m in the midst of a timing belt and water pump change as well. It’s been running great and feels very solid. My only concern is that the green and amber turbo lights...
