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
Noob question but what
Ill Adjust the kick down cable asap but have not adjusted yet ! Ill have to let the truck and trans try to shift to a lower gear and see how she handles it, the main road i am concerned with is going alteast 50 up a highway that basically starts at sea level then climbs...

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)
Bought this beautiful project 93' 1FZJ80 and have been working on getting it reliable for over a year now. It has alway run just fine but i have been chasing demons. I Live on the big island of Hawaii so i need to drive incredibly steep grades very often. to cross the island i drive roughly 6...
Additionally, anyone know what this might ne right under the passanger seat ? I thought it was an amplifier for radio however i think it may be an aftermarket alarm system ? Im wondering if i set something off
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...
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!
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...
