    Distributor Replacement

    I'm wondering if anyone has used this: Aftermarket Distributor My wife and I both drive 80s. And I have a parts 80. My wife's leaks a lot of oil. A few months ago, I noticed the oil was even on top of the alternator, so .... popped the cap and there was oil. It's dripping down to the...

    Transmission sound goes away in neutral

    I promise I've read all I can and I'm getting mixed results. Speed related sound - goes away in neutral at speed. I have several fzj80s. My wife's is a 97 with about 220k. It started a vibration noise that is speed related - sounded like running over a rumble strip but very low and mild. I...

    Rough Idle in Drive with AC on

    With the engine running, in gear, and the AC on, the engine runs rough - steady but rough. It's only when it's under load, but I can tell the roughness is there with the AC off just not bad. EVERY once in a while, I'll stop at a light and it isn't rough, but maybe the compressor is cycling - I...

    New fix for shaky sideview mirrors - picture heavy

    Hey everyone. I've waiting a few months to make this post - to see how my shaky mirror fix worked. Turns out not so well, but I think there is hope. There is still stuff called Bondic. It's like $25 or so on Amazon. If you've been to the dentist in the past 10 years and they put that blue...

    Electrical short - smoking - not starting

    I have just finished up a lot of work on the Ole Boozer Cruiser. crank seal / oil pump seal / phh / water pump etc. Tonight I was going to wrap it up, replaced the belts, and put some water in the radiator (I was going to flush it out after I got the truck started.) It won't start. So in my...

    Auto up window mod issue

    I performed landtank's auto up window mod last night. It works, but not every time. It seems like it's not releasing the command to lower or rise. And I can hear the motor making noises after the window completed it's up or down (but the window doesn't move). And now my alarm is going off...

    Sloppy handling and engine noises

    I now have two 80s which is bad and good. Good since I've been working on mine for so long, the newer 80 (wife's) is that much easier for me to fix and i have parts laying around. Bad because I can compare and I'm finding out my 95 might not be in as good a shape as I thought. The 95 has 173k...

    Axle inner seal keeps leaking

    I have read it all. Ok maybe not all, but most. I watched all the videos. I rebuilt both sides two summers ago. Driver's side has never leaked. I'm about to rebuild the passenger side for the 4th time. The first time, the steering bolts backed out which dropped the axle and wallowed out...

    starting problem: New starter, new alt, bat good

    So this has been going on for a while. It makes a clicking sound but nothing happens - starter doesn't engage. I have replaced the starter, the alternator, tried different batteries. It will eventually start. Until then, I'll just sit here at cvs. Ha. Any ideas? It's happened on wet cool...

    Crankshaft Position Sensor CIL

    So now that I've replaced the IAC and that solved the revving up and down and eventually just high idle issue, I've found more issues. It seems that when the truck is hot, it doesn't crank. Everything lights up but the starter does NOTHING. At least not until the truck cools down, then it...

    Water in something. High idle / revving up and down.

    A few months ago, I accidentally put the front end under water - got water in the intake and distributor. I got it cleaned out and it drove back without any issues. I didn't drive it for a few weeks and I decided to hose out the muck that was left from that adventure - trying to avoid the...

    Speedometer wires on T-case

    Today I went riding through my land and all of a sudden my speedometer stopped working. When I got home, I looked underneath and saw the wire hanging down. Something ripped the wires right out of the wiring harness. I have no problem rewiring the harness, but I don't know which wire goes in...
