    1976 Stock 2f fuel pump?

    Same problem I had. The problem is probably that the diaphragm on the inside of the pump has a tear or is falling apart due to age, which was the case with mine. The diaphragm is the circular disk of rubber in the middle of the pump when you take it apart. What I did was I pulled apart the fuel...

    1976 Stock 2f fuel pump?

    I "rebuilt" my fuel pump myself without a kit, and haven't had a problem. What's wrong with your current pump?

    Blown Muffler

    Had this happen to me a few years ago right when I got my rig. Messed with the carb a bit, haven't had an issue since. Never looked at the timing like other people mentioned, but that could be your issue too.

    FJ40 Hard top and Doors

    I have a '76 FJ40, unfortunately without doors or a hard top. Does anybody know a good place I could buy these from?

    '76 FJ40 Cranks but Doesn't Run

    It's the OEM pump, fuel leaking out the diaphragm and out the side/bottom of the pump. I could do some southern engineering and build a new diaphragm, but i'll probably give in and buy a new one.

    '76 FJ40 Cranks but Doesn't Run

    Cleaned up the battery cables, sounded much better. It starts with starting fluid, but doesn't run. Fuel dumps out of the fuel pump.

    '76 FJ40 Cranks but Doesn't Run

    Any ideas on how to crank it by hand? It's pretty hard to reach the crankshaft nut.

    '76 FJ40 Cranks but Doesn't Run

    I think It's definitley an issue with the battery or the cables. i charged it and when i tried to start it, and it sounded better, but still wouldnt start. The connections to the battery started smoking, and were hot to the touch. I'm gonna get new cables, but I do have a problem. The previous...

    '76 FJ40 Cranks but Doesn't Run

    Thanks guys, I've been charging the battery overnight and I'll try again tonight. The battery cables definitely need to be updated, and I'll check the connections too.

    '76 FJ40 Cranks but Doesn't Run

    Hey everyone, after a few years of working on my fj40 and reading through mud, this is my first actual post. My Landcruiser's run recently, but currently doesn't start. It'll crank but barely, and by barely I mean very slowly and in a jerking way. I've already checked for spark, and am in the...
