Howdy folks! My e-brake has never worked since I got the truck last year. I'm just now getting around to tearing it down since I have leak coming from the transfer case output seal. I've got the transfer case output seal replaced and speedie sleeve done which were pretty dang easy. Now comes...

Update Replaced the ignition coil and still no spark. Some the wires look a little frayed i'll try replacing those next.

Thanks for the tip scrapdaddy, I was able to turn over and find top dead center :). Now i don't get any spark :(. I've double checked my work when I put on the new condensor, rotor cap and point. The only thing not replaced in the chain was the capacitor, not driving the pig for a couple weeks...

Hi all, So I did a goof move. I removed my distributor to replace the points and forgot to take a mental note of what position the distributor rotor was in :(. Now i'm trying to find top dead center so I don't botch things up and having a hard time. I've tried jacking up the rear end and...

Hi Scrapdaddy, Sorry for the delay in responding, its been one heck of a few weeks. Here are some pictures of the rear window as requested.

Good eveining all, It was a busy weekend for the Pig and I. After removing all the loose wires I found under the hood thinking something was causing a short, turned out it was the starter. While I was at it I ordered a new dizzy cap, points, rotor and wires. She now starts like a champ on the...

Thank you! I have ordered it!

Thanks for the reply scrapdaddy. I did find a bunch of wires and such that were not connected that might have been the cause. I'll dig more into it tomorrow and post some more pictures up of the pig.

Thanks for the reply wngrog, any recommendations? I found this fj40 weber carburetor land cruiser and the needed adapter plate.

Howdy, new pig owner here. Since I received the truck a month or so ago I have not been able to get it to start consistantly. From what I was told the 1F engine was rebuilt three years ago and has roughly 18000 miles on it. When I do get it to start and drive around it sputters during...
