    Rebuilt 2F seems to be going down hill

    I've started a couple of threads this week with random questions trying to diagnose issues, but I thought I'd try one last time before I call in the professionals (anybody know a good professional close to Little Rock AR)? My rebuilt engine is going down hill....... I had my 2F (11/78)...

    Do Aisin Carbs have vents - smoke machine revealed some sizable leaks

    Quick facts: '78, recently rebuilt 2F and Aisin Carb, desmogged (except no charcoal canister...yet). It won't idle below 1100 (and choke must be partially closed) and Idle solenoid is working, so I'm looking for a vacuum leak. I built a smoke machine, covered the top of the carb, and pumped...

    When should carb pull fuel from main jet?

    I’m trying to fine tune my rebuilt engine and I’m working on diagnosing a high idle. I just have a quick question: at what rpms should you see fuel coming out of the main jet? If the engine is idling at 800/900 rpms should it be pulling fuel from the main jet or should it still be running off...

    No brake fluid from new master cylinder

    78 FJ40 with dual reservoir master cylinder. I replaced the master cylinder with a new Aisin along with all new brake lines in the front. I couldn’t get any brake fluid out of the rear wheels, so I’m about to start taking every brake line connection loose to diagnose the problem. I started at...

    When to adjust carb/valves/timing during engine break-in

    I’m getting very close to starting the break in on my rebuilt 2F. I know there are hundreds of posts on break in procedures because I’ve read them. I was very hesitant to start yet another engine break in post. However there is something I haven’t seen mentioned. I know it’s important to get...

    Clutch Cover/diaphragm spring question

    This question is for a ‘78, 2F, 4 speed I’m working on getting my rebuilt 2F back in the 40. I’ve installed a new clutch kit (with clutch cover), and I just bolted on the transmission. I’m 100% positive I have the clutch disc in the proper orientation. If I grab the shift fork and push the...

    Wanted  FJ40 air cleaner whatchamacallit

    I’m looking for these little brackets used for the air cleaner attachment. If I didn’t know they were suppose to be there I’d be fine with my washers, but it eats at me just a little bit.

    Anyone recognize this distributor

    Dang it. I’m having my engine rebuilt and it’s suppose to be ready this week (that’s not the dang it part). I’ve been busy with other projects to get ready for the engine, but I now need to sort out my distributor. I’ve got what I think is the original (this is an 11/78 FJ40 with a desmogged...

    For Sale  Arkansas - radiator frame

    Fairly good condition with just some slight surface rust. What looks like rust on the photos is actually old antifreeze I think. I’m not 100% positive, but I think this is from a ‘74 or older. It was on my ‘78. I discovered it was incorrect for a ‘78 when I picked up an air inlet ‘cowbell’...

    I have a set of late model 40 steel wheels (5). The PO put these on my ‘78 and I’ve decided to go back to the original wheels. They have a couple of small scratches. $375. Local pickup only. Now I know the tires are old, but the wheels do come with (4) BFGoodrich 33x9.5 tires. The PO put...

    looking for a transmission shop - is FJ40 experience necessary

    How important do you think it is for a transmission shop to have experience working on the transfer case and transmission from an FJ40 ('78 with the 4 speed)? I very recently pulled the drivetrain (engine, transmission, and transfer case) out of my new to me '78. Let me say I've never done...

    Oil Pan Reinforcement Rail

    Let me start by saying I’ve been a very good boy. I got my first FJ40 about 3 weeks ago (11/78). I haven’t asked any questions yet, but I am stumped on a couple of things. 1. I’m cleaning years of grim off the bottom of the drivetrain and noticed a strip of metal along both sides of the oil...

    craigslist  (not mine) FJ40 collection near Dallas TX

    FJ40 Collection FYI: I tried to ask him if he'd consider selling just one of his FJ40's or if it's all or nothing.....no response. I'm assuming that means all or nothing.

    Wanted  75-78 FJ40 close to Arkansas

    No Longer Looking!! Proud new owner of a '78. Wanted ads do work. I was contacted by a mud member with a 78 that he was willing to sell (but it was not listed in the classifieds). I bought a 95 YJ Wrangler a few years ago, but I've regretted not getting an FJ40 instead. I'm ready to...
