Hey, just moved into the area so figured I'd say hello. Now need to get my 93 FJ80 registered and have a CEL on (code 26 running rich). Anyone have any mechanic or shop recommendations. I know of CS Auto which while close to me seems to not have a lot of time for older LCs but outside of that...
Ok, I know what the codes are (rich mixture and knock sensor) but was hoping someone might have some more insight (aside from going down the list of everything in the FSM). No noticeable issues when running.
Until just recently the CEL would do the following (now it didn't turn itself off). It...
I would like to go to a direct floor shift for the transfer case. Somewhere along the line a po put a floor shift in for 2wd/4wd selection. The hi/lo is a lever on the dash. My question . To do this I believe I need to change out the shift housing to a direct shift type (per advance adaptors)...
Yeah, MAF is closed for a bit. Sort of related question, when I go to disc, do I need to add the power booster or can I run the discs without it? I know I can, just not sure how big the difference is - again MAF has the mc and adaptor without power booster so wanted some opinions there.

1) FJ40, original engine, no top or doors, orig. paint (largely).
2) FJ40, recently rebuilt V8 (SBC), hardtop, doors. good paint but not original -$1000 (maybe).
Body good on both as...
I suppose I could say just driving period is more of a gamble in so cal. So just find one and buy it....damn what happens a year or two down the road.
Thanks for the responses. Feel free to add more.
Ok, I've read a ton of posts on this topic. I'm wanting to pull the trigger on an FJ60. My one and only hesitation is the smog. I've seen smog history on vehicles where they have passed every year and never failed. I've seen where they have failed before passing, gross polluter tag and then...
