This type of electronic ignition is a healthy upgrade for sure. In fact, I’m going to order one myself!
However , I was referring to the points inside the housing of the AMF. The AMF has a small, very analog style circuit board inside with several copper contact points along with a rolled...
I have 31/10.50 tires on mine which isn’t helping, and I have desmoged my engine to bump up power, also not helping, but I get about 10 mpg . These rigs are not know for fuel efficiency to say the least.
These engines can be finicky and typically need occasional adjustments to bring it back...
I’ve been driving fj62 for about 4 years, all the while restoring it. Mechanically in tough shape when I bought it, and now have it running like a top. I’ll have advice on just about any topic. Let’s start with a question, what AVG gas mileage are you getting , ratio of city and highway?
Hello folks! I need to get my power steering gearbox and pump rebuilt for my 88 FJ62. Any suggestions as to who I should mail these off to ??
Many thanks !
Cash and time! Ain't that the truth. I'll be doing a deep dive into these more modern engines this week and will report back. I think the possible double edge sword on this conversation will be just that. Taking a highly modern engine and mating it to an analog rig. On one hand, the...
This is awesome! Thanks for the link. I have an idea for what I want to do. I'll say in advance, I know full well I could more easily power up with a chevy V8 swap. I'm interested in an all Toyota powerplant.
Here is my big Idea. My 88 FJ62 is running like a top, now that I have spent...

I finally figured this out. The two OEM single wire (B-W) connectors ARE meant to connect to each other, but only as a bypass of the AC- Accelerator circuit board. So...
I am always keeping a sharp eye out any of these that are up for sale. In roughly 18 months of searching for these rare parts, I have only seen one come up for sale on ebay. I lost the bidding war on it, at which point I had an idea about retrofitting a very similar chrome trim strip from...
I have been looking everywhere for about a year. No dice.
I made the mistake of buying a full set on ebay around the time I bought my '88 Fj62, before I knew what I was looking at. So I now have the full set of flaps that pair with the OEM fender flares.... which of course won't work...
Thanks Hammer. Your pictures were great. Noted your system is working well. With those two connectors attached, I assume you have an empty connection port on top of the AC booster? The single pin port.
I now have the dash and hvac system fully reassembled with one exception. It all looks great and is working beautifully. However, I still have not solved the issue of having nowhere to plug the AC compressor clutch relay wire back into. Considering the AC system is discharged, and its...
