    New fj40 need help choosing mods

    The ultimate use for this 40 will be just to play around lightly and drive it. Its really too nice for hardcore, it has a better body than my 80 and it would be a lot of work to make it as capable. 90% of the time it will be used in warm months cruising blacktops and dirtroads with bikini top...

    Wow help already thanks guys. I do not have a hard top but I do have a bikini top and a soft top with half and full doors. No emissions here and I know these engines are not a v8 and I don't want a v8 just want it to run optimal and be a little less cold blooded. The jump to 33s should help...

    If you could drop any engine under your hood what would you chose?

    3fe . . . . . . honestly tired of working on 2 friends 1fzfe's. those heads are heavy to lift off for hg. Highway sure they are better but i can get power at low rpm when wheeling, they can't. 3fe much flatter torque curve. 1fz doesn't make much torque till the wheels are spinning too much...

    Lithium-Ion Cordless Drill

    Another thing, a guy that works with me had the ridgid stuff, the dual battery charger fried both his batteries so he took him to home depot. They sent him somewhere else who eventually sent him somewhere else to get his problem solved. Since then his circ saw stopped working. He borrowed a...

    92 Transfer Case issues in high

    Drive Flanges. . . . . Hey Red, Sorry to hear about your problem but my guess is it isn't actually a transfercase problem. I believe it is your front drive flanges are stripped out. The transfercase on the 91-92s doesn't have a vc so it will send all the power to the axle with the least...

    In search of the Ultimate 80

    "I wasn't referring to reliabilty for the 91 - 92 series; I feel these engines were little under powered." So is the 1fzfe. . . . . "I know many people have installed V8 in replace of 3FE 4.0L engine. This is just my option, but I feel the "ultimate" 80 should be the 2nd generation of...

    '92 3Fe MAf adjustment - which direction???

    Yup. Same thing happens with highly tuned Cummins' or Duramax's... Yeah but those engines can deal with the extra fuel a little better than the ole 3fe.... im not sure any gasoline engine would ever make much power while blowing smoke tho. . . ;) but yeah i know what you mean. Me and dad...

    '92 3Fe MAf adjustment - which direction???

    Oh i see. . . sorry about that. Well anyways it is my understanding that "black smoke out of the tailpipe" would indicate a very rich mixture. If it were mine id go a couple teeth lean and check it and repeat until smoke was gone and it was running nice.
