    The truck behaves like a good girl while on flat ground, and if i park on a hill with the ebrake off it does roll on its while in neutral. She also revs easily to 4-5k in park very well. I looked for a scan guage that works on a 93 obd1 but was not able to find one, might you have one to...

    noob question but do all fjs come with an O/D button ? my O/D light came on recently yet I cannot find the switch anywhere. Right now the truck is incapable of driving over 40 mph up hill, right now I can barely make it home to about 1000' any faster than 10 ish MPH

    very likely, I have cleaned the maf with Maf cleaner, and the truck has a full egr delete, except for that damn near impossible egr pipe, currently capped off but there is a burn on the wire harness. the wires appear to not be compromised but the shroud has melted through. I have not checked the...

    cats have been removed and straight piped through, unfortunately no soot marks near o2 sensors, its hawaii though so the o2 sensors themselves could be toast (everything here rusts to hell and back)

    Does my 80 have a ghost ? Starts with no key or ignition switch

    However just put the truck back together and discovered low voltage to the fuel pump. It is a brand new pump that was confirmed working I can hear it prime with the turn of the key right before cleaning the starter. Did i screw something up starter related ? I also just cleaned the fuel...

    Does my 80 have a ghost ? Starts with no key or ignition switch

    Right on the money ! I just pulled the starter and cleaned everything to a polish and sure enough the plunger contacts looked like a crusty old spark plug, full of corrosion!

    Does my 80 have a ghost ? Starts with no key or ignition switch

    My 80 has had deteriorating starting issues, after a few tries she starts up, however the last time she started up the ignition switch seemed to get stuck “on” the starter continues to crank after start. I immediately unplugged the battery. Naturally I assumed bad ignition switch so i took it...
