The best rust removal is Coke (Coca-Cola).

The best is Original Toyota Distributor, with a Porter Electronic Module. It's cheap and ready to install.

If I pull the PCV hose off while my engine is running, Engine increases revolutions. If i put my finger obstructing the PCV, my engine starts to stall. What does it mean ?

Today i did a leak down test. There is less than 10% of leakage, and it is mainly by intake valves. Based on this test, we can conclude that the piston rings are OK. So, it is normal that droplets come out the dipstick tube when engine is running.

One question about leak compression : When I pull the oil refill cap while engine running, there is not steam coming out (the oriffice doesn't blow out). Is this a good symptom, or it doesn't mean nothing ?

Thanx for your answers. I will do a leak down test. I will be posting the result of this test. I post some pics of my FJ-43. Recent Pics. By orejadeperro at 2008-08-15 By orejadeperro at 2008-08-15 By orejadeperro at 2008-08-15 By orejadeperro at 2008-08-15 Pics when it was...

Yes, you are being an ass... because that was not my question. But i will be polite, and i will answer to you. My disptick is broken. I don't know who did it in the past. To fix it, it's necessary to pull out the oil pan, and remove the broken piece of tube inside the dipstick oriffice. When...

I have a 2F engine, FJ-43 (middle wheel base) 1978. I want to ask you if it is normal that little drops go out my dipstick tube when engine is on and i remove the dipstick (while engine is running). My engine compression is 140 psi in all 6 cylinders, and it is not burning oil...

I'm in Colombia, South America. I actually have a Toyota Land Cruiser FJ-43 (Middle wheelbase), 2F engine, and i installed CNG 2 years ago. CNG is cheaper than Gasoline (About 50%). CNG has more advantages than disadvantages. If CNG is correctly installed, the loss of power is almost...

Thanx for the answers. I think i will go for the FJ-60. In Colombia there are lots of spare parts for Land Cruisers, but there are not enough spare parts for Fords Bronco. I actually own a Land Cruiser FJ-43 (Middle wheel base), 2F engine, 4 speed, carbureted, with dual fuel system (Natural...

Hi. I´m from Colombia, South America. I want to know your opinions about comparing : Land Cruiser FJ-60 1984 (I6 2F Engine, 4 speed transmission) with a Ford Bronco 1984 (V-8 302 Engine). I want to buy a fullsize that can hold all my family, but i haven´t decided between Land Cruiser and...

I have a question. Are the Land Cruiser Differentials/Axles made by Dana ? Recently I read that Toyota doesn´t make its own axles, instead Toyota buys its axles to Dana factory. Is that true ?

environment friend My FJ-43 (mid wheelbase), 1978 2F engine, 13 mpg, carbureted, is really environment friend. It has Natural Compressed Gas, and is really clean. Also, is an economical rig. Old Land Cruisers are the best vehicles ever made in the whole world ! They will never let you...

NO, it's not ! NO, it's not an FJ-43 It is a very good condition FJ-40. FJ-43 is longer than this one. The next pic is a FJ-43. By orejadeperro, shot with C170,D425 at 2007-11-27 By orejadeperro at 2007-12-07 By orejadeperro at 2007-12-07
