    Does the FJ80 (91/92) have the power steering and transmission sharing the same reservoir?

    1991 FJ80 Overheated, no start

    FJ80 overheated on the highway. Temp gauge shot up, white smoke everywhere out of the engine compartment, check engine light came on all in the span of a few seconds. Pulled over, coolant everywhere. Let it all cool off, kept the fan going to dump heat. Went to top off the radiator after...

    Doors lock on Start up need code to disable - https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/doors-lock-on-start-up-need-code-to-disable.539196/ seems to work for later models. Has anyone tried to disable automatic door locking/unlocking on a 1991? I've tried the code with no success. My issue is that all...

    Accelerating troubles on 3FE

    I'm working on a problem with my 1991 3FE FJ80. It has started having problems accelerating and going up hills. I'd describe the problem as: -press on the accelerator -tachometer goes up to about 2800 rpms -needle on the tac starts to waver at about 2800-2900 rpms -engine at the same time...

    2020 Snorkel options for 3FE 1991 FJ80

    Looking for some advice on this, and what I've been able to find is widespread across a lot of years. What snorkels are good for the 3FE FJ80 these days? Only one I've found is the ARB and it's $400 US. Is this worth it? I may have to sell the ol cruiser in a year as I'll be moving to a...

    Bulb part number

    I'm looking for a replacement for the bulb that comes out of the shifter in a 1991 FJ80. I've looked online but the problem is there's no scale so it's really hard to tell what I'm looking at, and all bulb markings are worn off. Any ideas?

    Battery options

    I'm going to get a new battery this weekend. I've been running an Optima Yellow Top for 5 years, and am going to swap it out before it fails. No issues so far, but at a lifespan touted to be 2-3x longer than a normal car battery, I'm still in the zone where it seems responsible to change it out...

    91 FJ80- Rear running lights not working, everything else working

    My running lights have stopped working at the back of the cruiser. That includes side reds, rear running light and license plate lights. The ones at the front still work, and so do the brake lights, backup lights and turn signals. The 15 amp tail light fuse isn't blowing, either. Any ideas?

    JDM Heated Seats switch install help

    I've had the Japanese interior for my FJ80 since I bought it and I have the switches. I need the wiring to go from the switch to the seat, but should be able to track that down. Can you guys point me in the right direction for information on how to hook up the heated seats to switches and power?

    1991 FJ80 trouble starting- with a twist!

    After going through winter with no issues, I wound up having a really hard start today. The starter and battery work fine, since I was able to crank the engine a fair bit. After keeping at it for perhaps 10-15 turns of the key, the engine eventually started, stumbled a bit and everything was...

    R12 coolant - is it ever dyed?

    My AC system needs to be recharged. When it was last done years ago (2014) the mechanic used dye - I keep all my work records and this one says he pumped 1 lb of dyed refrigerant in to check for leaks. There might be a leak, but they also did it for about $64 Canadian. I reckon they either...

    What if I need the FJ80 towed? (fulltime 4WD)

    It hasn't happened yet, but it could. What if I need to get an FJ80 towed? I get that it needs to be put on a flatbed- makes sense, it's a fulltime 4WD. Is it hard to get a tow service to send out a flatbed? Can a standard tow truck use some mechanism to keep all 4 wheels off the road...

    91 FJ80...nothing is broken and it's freaking me out

    I'm really used to finding something new to fix about once a month...since May I haven't had any problems. I replaced a worn out U-joint in May, but that's about it. I've done mostly standard maintenance since I got the rig over 2 years ago- fixed a diff seal, changed the gear oil, fixed some...

    Extracting broken bolt

    I went to change my thermostat (91 FJ80) and broke the rear left bolt on the housing. I think about half an inch of the bolt is still down there. I've extracted broken bolts before, but never on an engine/ installed auto part. How would you go about getting that broken bolt out?

    Where to buy FJ80 EGR delete parts?

    I did the Google searches and found the results, but I'm hoping to have a bit of a broader conversation on this. Where did you buy your EGR delete parts (plug, plate, bolts and gasket)? Do you regret buying the parts you did? Is there a best EGR delete kit for sale out there?

    1991 FJ80 headlights

    One headlight just went out. Brights work fine, but it looks like they're separate so I think it's good. What headlights do you use? Any to avoid? Any friendly tips for changing the bulb? It looks like it's just two silver hexes on top to undo and then the plastic pulls off.

    What *is* an expedition build?

    Sure, it's a build for an expedition, so this is sort of a weird question- but what is an expedition build? What's the defining characteristic? What kind of things would make an FJ80 an expedition rig? Again, yeah, weird question but I'm not sure I really know what an expedition build actually...

    3FE FPR Location

    I'm having a hard time with this one- where is the fuel pressure regulator located on the 3FE? Also, what part can I replace it with? I read someone suggested Intermotor's FPR.

    3FE MPG in -30 C

    It's been a bit colder lately, so here we go- What kind of fuel efficiency can I expect in -30 temperatures with a 3FE? What kind of fuel consumption can I expect while idling? My last fillup was about 36 L (9 ish gallons) to 68 miles. So...bad. Last fillup before that was about 11 mpg. So...
