    Carburetor vent...

    I have had the worst luck with carburetors lately. Two years ago a sold a '73 Bronco with a freshly rebuilt Ford carburetor . The buyer traveled with a trailer a long distance to buy it as I stated over the phone it ran perfect. He gets to the house with cash in hand, we start it up and fuel...

    Distributor cap help

    Lads, I purchased a new distributor cap but didn't install it right away. It has numbers on it but when I follow the 153624 wires to the cap the poor girl just back fires and won't start. The last cap had no numbers...argggg. Can one of you provide just a hand written drawing or picture and...

    My twilight zone 40

    I thought I'd post here as I think the fj25 guys are sick of me whining. My '67 bone stock FJ40 runs perfect, well almost. When I'm on the road turning right it coughs, shutters and dies. I pull over to the curb, crank on it a bit and it coughs to life. Then runs perfect until the next...

    The brake job

    It's interesting to me all the '65 parts on the '68 (Sept '67 build) 40 I'm working. This week a "full brake" job and if I'm correct the removed and replaced wheel cylinders are cast with 65 (so far) meaning the year?. Perhaps I'm wrong and it doesn't mean the year but I like to pretend. The...

    Con-Ferr

    I have numerous ads for the Con-Ferr business in L.A. I got to thinking about the V8 conversions in the 60's/70's for the FJ40's that Con-Ferr sold. Were there any identifying tags, stampings etc that would indicate the conversion was done by them?

    Wits end

    I had my stock carburetor ('67) rebuilt. Ran perfect for about four months but of late it does some very odd things. Come to a stop sign, the idle gets rough or the poor dear starts running very rough like someone poured a cup of gasoline down the throat of the carb and it dies. So there I...

    Intel question on 40

    Fellers, is there a book best suited for information on the FJ40? I like reading on changes thru out the years. So far all I have is the The Land Crusier Legend book. But, it covers many Land Cruisers and I'm not interested in those. My focus is the 40. Some of the knowledge you guys have is...

    Complete exhaust system

    Subject is a stock 1968 FJ40 FST in need of a stock exhaust system. I did a search and nothing, SOR nothing. Stainless would be nice but I ain't holding my breath. And, my requirement is no welding to build. Slip fittings/joints only with U clamps and bolt right in. Is there anyone selling...

    Stamped engine number question

    I looked on Spector but it only goes down to '69 and I'm perplexed on where to look now. Stamped number on block F193467 boss. I'm happy to do the homework but need direction on where to look. The block is for sale and I am always on the lookout for year appropriate back up parts. Regards, Mike

    Thread size for oil sender please

    My oil pressure gauge is dead. I installed a new sender, no luck. I don't have the patience to dig into the gauge cluster and since new oil pressure gauges are not around anyway, I have the thought of installing a hard line and gauge and hanging it under the dash. Ugh...I hate the look but am...

    Weezer

    Not the band, my 40. I have a wheez that I cannot find. I'm driving, runs fine then starts making a very loud vacuum wheezing sound. If I increase the rpm it stops but comes right back. Then it stops making the sound as in nothing. Of course it won't make the sound when I open the hood...

    Column shift questions

    Lads, Every column shift vehicle I have owned always had a spring like action when pulled towards the driver for first and reverse. I am working on a '68 Fj40 FST that seems to be stuck in that position of the first and reverse. I cannot go into second and third, the shift lever won't go...
