I am very happy with the zerostart circulating heater. If you are going to get a plug-in heater, you might as well. It was easier to install than the freeze plug heater, is more powerful at 1500 watts, and it's only $118 on Amazon. A year...

Yes we do. The longest living and toughest vehicle around. I've had the pleasure since the early 1980's.

Ah! If great when warm, then glow plugs. Thinking that I read some additional post. Still a stiff primer pump is a good sign no matter what you do. We have many, many Toyota's in our underground mines, I always tested the primer as a force of...

Vaccum leak! Air is being sucked into the fuel line. Use a section of clear hose. Start from the IP to fuel filter and work your way towards the tank. Air bubbles are the clue. No air bubbles and you want a firm primer especially after an...

If it is 15-20 min you probably have a airleak in your fuel lines . Shouldn’t take more then 30 seconds on a cold start for the idle to smooth out and the smoke to disappear

I decided to tack on the body mounts and weld the pieces together. Here are some pictures of the mounts mocked up. Still parts gathering as l go, now have almost everything including doors , rear wall and steel roof, already have a front screen...

I would start with the glow plugs system. Make sure that you have power to the busbar when the key is turned on, and as the system powers down. If yes to the busbar, then test the glow plugs. If one is bad change them all. Sensors: Toyota uses...

I made a clock replacement for the 70 series. This adds a GPS speedometer Time, date Altimeter Voltage And lots of other features Only needs to be connected to power that used to go to the clock...

For anyone who wants to know All done and in, looking tidy went in without any trouble bolted straight up to the auto runs and drives nice. Massive difference in power like driving a completely vehicle. Feels like it has more pick up than the 80...

So have I done me well it hasn’t left me stranded on the side of the road apart from what as happened. Yeah going in the direction of the 1hd-t. Have a 80 with the 1hd-ft in her.

You may want a tranny temp gauge, and drive accordingly. My 91 with A442 is in Whistler BC. Drives nice and cool in 4th gear all day, downshift and watch the heat rise quickly. According to my son even low range does the same sort of heat...
