This soap opera should be in chat. The guy who wants a collector with a salvage title. The dude from Iowa who talks junk about other states (look in the mirror). The lib who's worried about someone's wealth and talks about how much money all the people he knows has (bragging about wealth of...

Folex carpet cleaner did a great job on my 93. Don't scrub, just blot it.

If you're trying to get to the front drain tubes it's not that hard. I just dropped a portion of the headliner on my 93 last week to check the connections. Just remove the visor and clips and grab handles on both sides, drop the dome light/sunroof controls (I didn't take the mirror off), pull...

IMO, anyone buying a truck from an area that uses salt should take a look at the brake lines, especially the lines that run along the driver frame rail with a focus on the area between the frame rail and fuel tank. Salt accumulates in that area and the brake lines will rust through. I had that...

I had the same issue with intermittent starting. Looked at starter and ignition, ended up being a slightly loose negative battery connection. YMMV

Replace the vacuum lines while you're in there and the #1 heater hose (throttle body to block). The #1 heater hose is difficult to get to if you spring a leak on the block side (ask me how I know), but easy to replace when you have it apart. I replaced all hose clamps with new OEM spring...

I have mine apart right now so it's fresh in my mind. The line from the LSPV connects to the bottom on the side closest to the wheel and the shorter line from near the axle goes to the other side. In other words, facing the driver side wheel shorter bottom left, LSPV connection bottom right. Mike

I am looking for both front window runs

I decided to change the oil on my black hub fan clutch off of my 93 FZJ since the fan wasn't changing speeds. I pulled the fan clutch and didn't notice any leaks and the clutch had decent resistance, bearing was good too. Drained the oil and cleaned the inside and noticed on both faces inside...

I was hoping to meet you all this time now that I work off of Aviation (Gateway Centre), but I'm working out of town on the 1st.

I'm going to make the April meeting since a new job takes me from east Raleigh to out by the airport. It's been too easy up to now to just travel east from work home to Clayton, but in a couple weeks I won't have an excuse not to make the meetings.

I had similar symptoms with my 93. Ended up being the EFI relay was bad. The EFI relay is in the engine bay, driver side in the fuse box. Drive your truck around until warm, then check to see if the relay is hot. I could barely touch mine it was so hot. Good luck.

3rd in line if the other 2 don't work out.
