    Tips for Installing Retainer Clip After Replacing Transfer Shift Lever Seat? '93 4-Runner

    I just replaced the transfer case shift lever seat in my '93 4WD 4-Runner with the manual transmission. I'm having a lot of trouble holding down the metal cover against the force of the spring so I can install the retainer clip. Are there any tips and/or special tools that will make this easier?

    '78 2F Igniter Tech - Installation and Wiring - Early 2F (1/75 - 9/77)

    This afternoon I tested a used '78 2F igniter in my '76 FJ40 with FJ60 distributor. I wanted to ensure the igniter would work with a 1/75 through 9/77 2F distributor converted to Toyota electronic ignition. Over the past few days I spent several hours searching the MUD forums and other Internet...

    Tips for Reinstalling Transmission/Transfer in '93 4-Runner with MT and 3VZE?

    I posted this in the '95 and Earlier Truck/4-Runner forum, but I thought I'd post this here as well. After a lot of jockeying around, I was finally able to get the transmission installed to the point where the transmission input shaft has cleared the clutch splines. The gap between the engine...

    Tips for Reinstalling Transmission/Transfer in '93 4-Runner with MT and 3VZE?

    After a lot of jockeying around, I was finally able to get the transmission installed to the point where the transmission input shaft has cleared the clutch splines. The gap between the engine and bellhousing is now down to about 3/8", so I'm thinking I'm at the pilot bearing. Or am I at the...

    Fuel Pump Diaphragm Rod Differences?

    Were there different types of end features on the F engine and early 2F engine fuel pump diaphragm rods - the feature that captures the pump arm? The photo shows one type, but the one I had was tee-shaped, without a hole, as shown in @red66toy's rebuild video...

    F Engine Distributor Tech - Toyota Electronic Ignition Conversion - Machining?

    This morning I decided to add another distributor R&D project to my list - converting F engine distributors to Toyota electronic ignition. This would also include any non-US Land Cruiser small cap distributors such as 19100-61080 and 19100-61010. So far it looks promising. I'm not a machinist...

    Even More Distributor Tech - Early F Engine Vacuum Advancers

    This weekend I decided to test the nine remaining early F engine vacuum advancers in my stash, and to find an easy and reliable way to adapt the 1/8-inch copper tubing fitting to accommodate OEM vacuum hose. My initial surprise was that all nine had diaphragms that work and hold vacuum. It...

    More Distributor Tech

    As I refurbish each FJ60 distributor, I clean the dust proof cover that snaps over the signal generator. I use a mild solution of dishwashing liquid and an old toothbrush. After cleaning and rinsing they tend to lose their color as they dry - they turn from black to light brown. From what I can...
