So, I live on Maui, but was in NC on New Year's Eve, when someone decided to throw a fountain type firework in my truck, burning the entire inside. She only had liability insurance, so there's no money coming to fix it. It was one of the last 62s made and overall, the truck was in fantastic...
I have a 90 FJ62 that has been on the IR and I'd like to get her back on the road. She needs a tune up, fluids changed, a general once over, some bodywork and a same color paint job. I've shopped around and can't really find anyone I trust at a reasonable rate, so I thought i'd throw this idea...
I've been extremely busy over the last six months and my truck has been sitting for quite a while. I couldn't get it started and realized that the fusible link was shot. So, I've replaced that (thanks North Country Land Cruisers) and she starts fine, but the wipers won't turn off unless I pull...
I've recently started getting some hesitation in my truck. It happens at all speeds and especially uphill. Feels like it isn't getting fuel, then all of a sudden will burst, then hesitate, then burst again. If I stomp on it, it'll level out until I let off.
1. I'm losing an overflow...
My wife and I are moving to Maui from NC and we're driving through on our way to CA. I've never been to NM and she's been twice. We can go to either place, but don't want to waste our time, as we are here for the night and will be headed on to Flagstaff, tomorrow. We are looking for decent...
I have changed the head gasket in my truck twice and swapped out the transmission, but I am embarrassed to say that I cannot figure out how to change my headlights. I can't even find it in the FSM. Does the trim have to come off or do they come out through the engine compartment?
:confused:
After overheating, I replaced my transmission last year. Since then, the temp light on the shifter hasn't gone out. I am careful to pay attention to the tranny and check fluid with every fill up and have had no problems. However, I will be driving cross country and would like to have it...
I am trying to put together a plan for our move and I'm trying to figure out the best value for doing it.
We have a 2000 4runner that is going with us and i thought about using a tow dolly to tow the 62 to San Francisco. She is heavier than the 4runner's capacity, but since i've never towed a...
Anyone have a lead on a facility that has long term storage for a vehicle? Preferably in the Triangle or east and indoor. Terry from Cary is trying to become Terry from Kauai and I don't want to take my truck, as we would already be shipping the wife's 4runner. Also, any tips on what should...
My brother is looking for a toy and has been looking at Mustangs and Broncos, but I keep telling him to look at 40s. He is concerned about the seats facing inward, as he has two little kids. I keep telling him that is a temporary issue, because the kids will grow.
How hard would it be to...
I saw this truck in Wilmington and thought someone may be interested. It has been on the beach, but the undercarriage isn't too bad.
The area code down there is 910.
I haven't had a chance to so before, but I just wanted to thank Eric, Clint and Johnny for their help in getting my truck back on the road. It turns out that incorrect timing can cause all sorts of issues.
Thanks again guys,
Terry
My head gasket blew and I finally put it all back together, with the help of some club members. She has a miss, though and I can't figure out why. If I put a piece of cardboard in front of the tailpipe, it intermittently POPS back against the pipe.
The plugs and wires are new, the head was...
I am replacing my head gasket and had the injectors cleaned. I had her all back together, but when I turned it over it started spewing fuel at the rail. My injectors weren't set correctly and crimped a couple of o-rings. Is there a way to put the rail under pressure without the efi on it, so...
