    What have you done to your Land Cruiser this week?

    picked these up. Both are 72's. Got the brown one about a month ago. Got the grey one yesterday with a clean title. tore the nasty carpet out of both. It is going to be a slow progress making one decent, but I'm excited to get started.

    86 4runner Thought it was the head gasket??

    When the timing chain guides and rail brake the chain slaps on the coolant passage inside the timing cover on the left side of the engine. the chain will wear two grooves inside the cover and eventually through the cover letting coolant into the oiling system.

    what could it be?

    Both my 86 and 87, the check engine light is on when the key is on before cranking. If it's EFI I wonder if your fuel pump is running. My fuel pump didn't work when the ck engine light wasn't on. When I played with ground wire the light came and the fuel pump ran and fired up. Not to say...

    what could it be?

    mine was acting up similar to yours this past december. The problem was the ground wire at the block connection. Is your check engine light on with the key in the on position when it won't start? Mine wasn't.

    Felpro Head Gasket

    hey man if your cool with felpro I would have engnbldr send you there head set. I swear they are the same gaskets but way less expensive compared to felpro. I've used both in the past with good results.

    Timing Chain Kit

    Nice! I bet it's a nail driver. Is it a winchester? A buddy of mine has a winchester single shot .22LR lever he got from his grandpa. It's a take down( barrel and forarm screw in to the chamber ). He still has the hard case( looks like a thin suit case) where it's stored in the two pieces. I've...

    Rebuilding Brake Master Cylinder...Easy Job?

    If the brake light didnt come on and the brake fluid resevoir wasnt empty, then you're right, no air in the system. That is normal for the fluid level to drop as the pads and shoes wear. Now that your resevoir is full, if the fluid level drops soon you have a leak some where. Have you...

    Charging/Brake warning lights on..

    scratch that what i said about ulra belt tighting( normal sould do). i learned from some recent posts on mud about pulleys being worn, which now i think was the problem with my other rigs.

    Timing Chain Kit

    that piece on the bottom, at that distance, could almost pass as a model 71 deluxe short with the sling off.

    22re top end rebuild and timing chain work

    If it were me, i would drop the axle out and take the pan off. three of the trucks ive owned, the PO's had RTV on the timing cover. they all leaked. the 22rte i did a while back, i replaced the oil pan gasket. it was cork. still holding up and no leaks. Droping the axle was intimidating...

    Timing Chain Kit

    i used engnbldr head set and head bolts on the truck im driving now (22re), and so far ive got close to 8000mi out of it with no problems. the gaskets look like the same ones from Felpro but way less expensive. i used a felpro headset on a 22rtec, and then found out about engnblr and ordered...

    Charging/Brake warning lights on..

    ive changed a few( first one lasted a month) in the parking lot at the part store cuz i was stupid and lazy and didnt rebuild the one in the truck. it doesnt take long at all, remove the hardware and wire. the alternator will drop right out the bottom. 12mm wrench for the top adjuster...

    no power at fuel pump

    thanks Jukelemon, i think your right! it wouldnt start this morning, so i played with ground wire and sure enough the short seems to be at the connection at the block. I will replace both ground wires this evening.

    Here is my new rig

    my clutch grinds in nuetral and all gears howl except 4th going down the road. the previous owner had ATF in the t-case and gear oil in the tranny which blew the mating gasket i think. for now i ran a hose from filler plug to filler plug(tranny to t-case) until the tranny goes. there was...

    no power at fuel pump

    i tryed jumping the Fc and E1 at the AFM. that didnt do anything again. the AM2 fuse is still good. the ck engine light doesnt come on at all. the starter continues to run again when i crank even with the key off for about 10-20 sec and then shuts off. could there be a short in the fuel pump...

    no power at fuel pump

    sorry,no, it didnt have power before hot wiring it. I thought the ground wire may have been the problem as it has happened 3 times in the last year it wouldnt start. but after it sat a while it started up and ran fine until now. i parked it sunday night for about 1hr, and then when i went back...

    no power at fuel pump

    also, the starter stays running about 10-20 seconds after the key is turned to the off- locked position. could a bad ignition harness cause both these problems. the fuel pump does run when i hot wire it. found the ground wire at the pump retainer to be weak(it broke). when i fixed that, there...
