A few weeks ago my 94' coasted to a dead stop after blowing the EFI fuse (after going over a bump). After some help from a fellow cruiser head who happened to be driving by we traced it down to a short within the wiring harness, specifically where it routes to the 02 sensors. I was able to drive...
Was watching this last night and thought folks on here would enjoy it as well. Custom built extended wheelbase 80 with a home built camper and trailer. Most of the video is two guys talking but there is a lot of tech explained throughout.
I'm planning to get the AC working on my 94' cruiser and wanted to solicit feedback on line replacement vs repair. As it currently stands the AC system is empty due to a hole in the line (red arrow) where it passes through the battery box. I was considering something such as an ATP line splice...
Next time you are underneath check the condition of the inner front brake hoses. I had one fail a few days ago (luckily it wasn't catastrophic). Replacement wasn't very difficult at home but would definitely suck to do in the parking lot of a parts store on a road trip.

Recently I noticed a slight clunk that can be felt near where my left foot rests when going over bumps or when taking a sharp right turn. During normal driving there is no noise and it hasn't affected driveability.

Hey Everyone,

Hello Everyone,
I picked up a 94' FZJ80 (unlocked) back in July and have been enjoying it ever since. This forum has been a great help in sorting out issues as they come up and I'm glad to see there's such a large community of like minded enthusiasts.
The cruiser is totally stock and the...
