Got some work on the 6.2 done tonight. Started by removing the vacuum pump and oil cooler bulkhead. And installed the Tejas Saginaw pump conversion kit. These engines do not come factory with an hydraulic PSpump so the Tejas kit is very cool. The kit comes plugs for the vacuum pump oil lines...
As mentioned, it won't work on damaged seals, gaskets, hoses or otherwise… but when its function/approach is something that applies to your leak, it has potential to do what it intends. Intact but old, hardened small rubber seals/o-rings have potential.
Another common one is Lucas, which...
New seals are in. The amount of caked-on crud on the front of the motor is actually impressive. VCG and spark plug seals are next.
PSpump out for rebuild. Was leaking pretty bad
Wow!! Thanks for such a detailed response. It certainly sounds like a good option. It arrived today and I will be giving it a go in the next couple of days once I have pinpointed the leaks a bit better and can accurately see if it works. Thanks again

You need the handle for holding the gear so you don't damage it when removing.
The emergency plug is on another page.
He has the good stuff.
Also has the pump it looks like........
You can also rebuild the pump...
The rebuilt pumps have an issue because there is a plug with an O-ring that is never part of the replacement and there are no replacement parts from Toyota. Absolute Wits' End makes an emergency plug for that location that I would HIGHLY recommend obtaining and carrying in the truck if you...
I love it when a temporary fix becomes permanent. . .or semi-permanent. I remember an editorial in one of the car mags I read religiously years ago and that was the title. . . 😝
And Op, this is an issue I dealt with last year and drove 400 miles sans PS after it blew. I’ve got a small...
The primary leaks on the 1FZ-FE are:
Valve Cover
Spark Plug Tube Seals
Distributor O-Ring (Dizzy o-Ring)
Oil pump seal (must also replace the front main seal when fixing this)
PS Hoses
AT hoses
Focus on those. Yes, it's possible that there is an oil leak from the pan there, but that appears to...
I bought this truck back in may of last year, and have been wrenching on it ever since. I've done all of the following work below but just can't seem to get it to run right:
New Water Pump, Thermostat, Radiator, and all coolant hoses
New Distributor + Cap
New Spark Plugs and wires
New Valve...
IMHO it seems like if one of us individually rebuilds a PSpump there's not much of a problem with the plug falling out as we don't mess with it. However when a large commercial entity (Cardone for example) rebuilds these pumps en masse they likely clean (hot tank?) the pump housings which may...
If you still have the PSpump out, be sure to either epoxy in the rear plug or pick up the Wits' End plug field repair kit. The O-ring on that plug is not in the kit and it is not "serviceable"
Toyota partsmongers simply list everything as Manufacturer: Toyota. The water pump, for example, is made by Aisin Seiki, but looking at these sites, you'd never know that. Same goes for the alternator, made by Denso. And brake booster, Aisin Seiki. So now I'm wondering about some of the other...
I screwed with my PPS solenoid last year, it was frozen so I tore it down and got it working again. Like you, I don't know if it's getting actuated at the correct speed. I didn't really notice a difference afterwards, but I also have 37s. Looking at the FSM (Page SR-36), it appears as though...
Well HD Automotive get back to me. They sure have the stuff to do a complete though out project.
The plan, I Marvel mystery oil my oil and gas on my 80 and driving it now. At time of take down I will recheck the leak down on 3 of the cylinders just to see if improvement happened or not. But I...
This week I finally got back on the 80... Its been a slow month for the 80
My 40 broke down and spent a couple weeks getting that right.... Then took it out for a run around Windrock....

Sometimes you win some.... The 3FE High Pressure line landed perfect on the 2uz...
BILT4ME - I had seen the emergebcy plug on Wits end but had not fully realized what was going on there. Will JB Weld it tonight before it goes in - thx!
heres some of the parts i ordered when i did mine, i believe the studs and nuts are for the exhaust manifolds, i replaced as needed, the oring for the pspump... i did the egr delete with hudd expo stuff, and a plug in the exhaust port, some plates i made. i also did the pesky heater hose, got...
I managed to some-freakin-how.
Haven’t even wheeled what I’d consider hard for years. Smoked a deer big time about a year ago and shortly after that my PSpumpplug s^*t out. May have just been a coincidence. Maybe not. But my sector shaft got seriously tweaked somewhere along the way.
