    Spiking Battery Meter w/AC on - Battery Test Readings

    Last two days I drove Lucy (My 86 FJ60) had random battery meter spikes which tapped it out as high as it would go. I noticed the air ramped up and started blowing out harder for 2-5 seconds first then the meter spiked. As soon as the air slowed, the meter went back to twelve. Curious if it...

    Installed Dash Cap- Crusiercorp

    Installed cap during first half of son's soccer practice this evening. Little prep work, and everything seems pretty snug. I put two strips of Velcro on one of the edges about an inch or so from the edge around the center. Didn't need any around the left or right side as it fit snug.

    Sluggish feel around 2100 RPM

    In 2nd and 3rd gear I notice a hesitation and sluggish pull around 2100 RPM till 2300 RPM. Almost a skipping feel. Around 2400 it goes away. I've noticed it since I bought it, thought the new perfectly gapped Denso plugs would help, but no luck. It isn't anything too bad, just wondering if it...

    Power Steering Reservoir - Confused

    I was checking my power steering fluid in my new FJ 60 for the first time. The dip stick looks different than the one in Chilton's SM.

    This is my first look at the plugs in my 86 LC. I only pulled plug number 2, but from what I can see compared to the service manual and posts on here, this looks normal. I haven't checked the gap. The LC runs great, but I was concerned the plugs may be old. My concerns: The rust around the plug...

    This is my first LC, so I'm trying my best learn every inch of her. I want to put some Cool Cruisers seat covers on her. The problem is that I don't know if these are stock front seats.
