Didn't get the time to do anymore with it, live is getting so busy. I will get to it though.

I did the same, bought a piece of crap off ebay thinking I could modify it to work ... lol Nope, just started from scratch- not gonna lie it took a while. I'm looking at getting it scanned and 3D printed rather than taking a mould from this one and producing more from the mould. Will post updates.

Lol, I hear ya..... I was able to lift the accelerator pedal with my food and straight away the rpms dropped to normal..... simple fix in the end.

I kept them tight so I can still mount the grab handle - a little higher.

So made this for my LHD 80, doesn't obstruct my view and got the color to match the original cloth that was on the pillar. Pretty happy with how it turned out.

Replaced the accelerator cable and bypassed the EGR and problem solved.

Update..... performed a smoke test and revealed something interesting. Found a small leak which appears to be coming from the bypassed EGR - it's closed but there is a leak under the diaphragm on the intake side - very small but enough to cause the rpm not to drop below 800. I'll sort that when...

I think I do for the most part except for the last pic. Mine doesn't have anything there to plug ? I'll tidy up where I fit the resistor- it's a temporary solution for now.

Great , thank you. Will do.

Appreciate the reply thank you, I have the FSM and kinda understand what these systems do, I guess I'm wondering if I'm on the right track in that they could be the culprit? FSM shows how to test them etc and I can follow that but it doesn't really say these could be the problem.

Hi Guys n Gals, anyone know what these two hoses do ? I think part of the vsv system (96 FZJ80) been dealing with high and erratic idle when engine is hot, I'm thinking unmetered air is causing it. Have replaced throttle cable, cleaned throttle body, IAC and TPS. Any thoughts ? Both hoses go to...

I've disabled mine too for now - loop back method ? What is that? I just disconnected the vacuum lines, looped the ones on the top of the intake, disconnected the temp sensor and installed a resistor. PO said it was the EGR that was causing the erratic idle when the motor was hot. It will creep...

I'm having Similar issues, mine only smokes a little for a few seconds after start up, I'm thinking king it's the valve stem seals too. I'm thinking thinking I will have to do them eventually though. I'm going to use an oil additive for now specifically for old worn gaskets and seals as my oil...

Having the exact same issue with high idle when engine is hot... just stripped and cleaned the throttle body, bypassed the EGR, cleaned the IAC, tested the TPS only to realize after reading this post that its a sticking throttle cable !! More cash to spend on the fun stuff now lol.
