Location in the engine bay where this relay was attached. Looks like it was tied into some wires that go to the headlights, and also wiring running into the cab.
I'm hoping someone can help me out identifying a relay in my engine bay that a PO cut out.
I have a RHD HJ61 - and the relay in question was mounted to the wall of the engine bay on the passenger side (left side if you're sitting in the rig).
The relay is labeled: RC-2206 MITSUBA 3821
It is a...
Would that be in the transmission? I'm getting outside my area of knowledge here.
It sounds like I'm going to need to get someone to tear into the transmission/t-case? Possibly a rebuild on both? I don't know what shops charge for that sort of thing but I'm starting to wonder if it's worth it...
I've got a high pitched sound coming from (as far as I can tell) somewhere under the center of the rig. PO told me it was a "whistle" that he thought was the snorkel, but this sounds like a metal on metal resonating sound, and the snorkel is right by the driver window so I think that would be...
The 61 is running smooth again, and the fuel tank is pretty much "like new".
There was a lot of rust on the bottom of the fuel tank. The "sludge" I could see in the bottom was actually just a big collection of rust possibly with a little aussie red mud mixed in. I couldn't find any local shops...
If anyone is curious I dropped the tank. Not a bad solo job, but I wish I had less fuel in that thing before I started.. It just kept coming!
I pulled the suction line and all I can say is it's amazing this thing was running at all.
I am not sure of the source of all this rusty / crusty /...
Well boys, the same problem cropped up again.
I pulled the sedimenter and there was a bit of rusty sediment in the bottom, but not much compared to last time. I swapped the fuel filter as well.
The rig is running again but I am concerned this is a much larger problem starting at the tank.
I...
I hope someone snagged some pictures? I forgot. Great turnout though! Quite the variety of 60s, 80s, and cruiser-heads.
Thanks to everyone that made it out. Was great to meet all of you and drool over your rigs!
Update: A big f'ing thanks to everyone who pitched in on this! The diesel is back at it and running as strong as ever.
Dove into the sedimenter and it was loaded with rusty sludge. Cleaned that out, then pulled and replaced the fuel filter. My hand priming pump is shot, but I was able to use a...
I'm just south of Bellingham and would be interested in meeting up with yous guys!
I'm in the middle of some troubleshooting but should be up & running before Feb.
Any chance you pulled up that part number? My shipped filter hasn't shown up. Opened up the sedimenter and it was easily as nasty as the pictures you linked. Figuring the fuel filter is probably full of junk as well.
That'd be great. I have one on order but if I can grab one locally I'll just keep the other as a spare. Let me know if you come up with the part #.
Cheers
Thanks for the responses you guys!
I will be working on it this Sunday, so I'll start by pulling the water/sedimenter as I'm sure it could use a cleaning. I have a new fuel filter coming so I'll get that replaced as well.
At that point if the rig is still having symptoms I'll see if I can get...
Hoping you guys can point me in the right direction here..
I was driving my 86' HJ61 to work the other morning (short drive) and as I started going up a hill near the end of the drive my Landcruiser started to slowly lose power as I went up, even after giving a little more throttle. It died...
The stereo came with a trim ring, but the existing one I had in the 60 fit the dash slot much better.
As you can see in the photo there is a small gap on the left side of the stereo, but its hardly noticeable to me.
*I'm not sure if the trim ring I have is stock or not. There was an...
