There’s a walk around video out there, I’m pretty sure he mentions the color in it or in another with the same color. Being TLC/Jonathan Ward my bet is it’s some kind of modified BMW color.
Canadian HJ and BJ 60s are going to be your closest option for import. There are some already imported running around but they pull a pretty penny. Don't forget that to legally import a non-USA truck it needs to be 25yrs or older. As for the auto Iv seen a 2H with one but not sure on the 3B, but...
I can't add anything new here but keep us posted on your findings. I have just finished doing much of what you have but chasing a different issue. I always like to see how other problems are solved for future reference.
Update: I got every thing back together and runs great. I wish I had another 2F to compare it to, just to see what the noise difference is. After the second time checking every thing it did not stutter at 1500 like it did. I can not pin point the cause but on the test drive I couldn't see, feel...
Just ran through it again, I got them all feeling the same now, I had to adj only a couple but ran it w/o the valve cover( Kinda Cool!) and they seem as quiet as I'v ever heard any. Still some ticking but not much. Going to put back together and see if it still stutters at 1500 to 2000. Then I'm...
Ok cleaned the flywheel and painted the line and dot. I was using the correct mark.
Would the gap be the same after the engine cools for a bit. I was going to check them again but can't decide to warm the engine up again or just do it now. I am afraid that as things cool the gap would have to...
Good call on dropping the cover to clean the flywheel. Now I can see If I just use the wrong mark. The "line" is TDC and the "Dot" is the timing correct?
Ok, I started at the only mark I could find in the "window" looks like a line w an arrow top. I did start w the 4,6,8,10,11,12 group would that make a difference?
I am able to turn the idle down and keep the engine running smooth, just stutters out of the 12000 to 1500 range. Thanks
Yep, I'm rechecking all the vac lines right now then I going to track down a light and do the timing. Just wondering if this was a common thing see after a valve adj. Thanks
Just did the valve adjustment on my 83, FJ60 with 164k. Fallowed all the posts I found as well as the Haynes. I did it the first time yesterday, every thing sounded good when I fired it up but it would kind of miss and sputter when I gave it some gas. I slept on it and re-did it this morning...
