    My thinking is since the O2 sensor wires came in contact with the exhaust, the fuse essentially was burned not from over current, but rather just from the wires heating up from contacting the exhaust. Just a guess??

    80 died on the fwy!

    So the mystery was solved via a big thanks to Gary and crew at Mudrak for helping me out. Turns out the O2 sensor wires came in contact with the exhaust, burning / melting the wires, blowing the fuse, thus leaving me coasting down the freeway. Hopefully this doesn’t happen to anyone else!

    80 died on the fwy!

    I’ve had zero issues in the 4 plus years owning it. Then it was just poof, lights went out literally on the freeway. Looking at the fuse on how it fried, it seems like it may not have been sized properly or something fuel pump, something failed and fried the fuse along with the terminal?? It’s...

    1997 FJ80 Exhaust Manifold Replacement

    I actually found the leak at the bottom of the manifold. I took a shop vac and soapy water and luckily was able to find it pretty easily. I replaced the gasket and I “think” I’m good. They’ll give me a free retest which I’m planning on doing tomorrow, so we’ll see what happens??
