    I am looking to sell my 87 FJ60 which had an 87 2H put into. The engine runs great, but the body is losing the rust battle. It also has a Greasecar veggie oil conversion kit. I drive it every day, but it is no showpiece. email me for more info, as with any rig like this, it has some quirks I...

    I have a 2H in my FJ60, same story as most folks, the rust is winning on the body and frame. Runs strong, lots of fun. PM me if you are interested, I am in NH.

    Everyones favorite game, ID this mystery piece of steering.

    Just to make it extra challenging for all you gurus out there, I wasn't able to take a photo. My power steering for very jerky, right before I parked. When I came out the next day, it had poured all its powersteering fluid out on the floor of the garage. I found the source of the leak, and...

    AltFuel  Got a new fuel station!

    They just opened a new "congreenience" store around the corner from me. Regular gas, B5, and B20 at the pump. B100 if you ask nice and dont mind providing your own container. I will still run WVO, but save me some hassle for processing my own BioD. Very cool!

    Sat for a while, now my brakes are sticky

    My rig got parked outside when the snow and salt started appearing on the roads, I just made room for it the garage the other day. It was outside for probably 3 months without moving. It was nice and warm and dry yesterday, so I took it out for a spin to get everything going. I noticed after...

    Fuel door question

    I know that the filler neck is smaller on gasoline models. When I did my swap I did not get a new filler neck, and the diesel pump will not fit in there. Not sure about panels though....

    Frozen 3B

    Sounds like it could be fuel, I guess. My "winter" (not sure what how the US formula compares) gelled on me last year a couple times, when it got pretty cold. I think anywhere the fuel is held in very small quantities is subjct to gelling. Same way puddles freeze before big lakes. Thinks I...

    AltFuel No power!

    I am a little confused, you said the filters are mounted upside down, but the picture shows them right side up? At any rate, could you fill them via the bleeder on the bottom of the filter? I am imagining something with some thin hose plugged onto the filter and a little funnel on the other...

    AltFuel FRYBID WVO kit? thinking of buying?

    I have also started using rock salt, can't decide if it has made a difference for me yet.

    AltFuel FRYBID WVO kit? thinking of buying?

    Everyone has their own system, I have heard good things about Johns. I like mine, and am always adjusting things here and there. Basic recipie for me was: 55 gal steel drum. Cut the bottom out. Thread a 6 inch 3/4 diameter pipe out the hole, so the threads peek out, you may need to extend...

    AltFuel FRYBID WVO kit? thinking of buying?

    Yes, good point. I heard the advice that you should line up a source or sources of oil first, collect for a month, filter, dewater, etc and see if you can handle the mess, or if you can gather enough to support your needs. THEN go for the conversion.

    AltFuel FRYBID WVO kit? thinking of buying?

    Also, if you are a bit of a novice, do not expect to get any customer service help from Frybrid. They make a great kit, but they are not strong on responding to customers needs. Last I checked, they did not make a kit specifically for Cruisers, so you would have to customize theirs quite a bit...

    1987 hj60 cold start problems

    Im in New Hampshire, saw my share of hard/no starts last winter. I agree, it is not likely an air/fuel leak, as it would likely not run ever if you couldn't get it to start. It would just keep sucking air and not starting. I can't speak to the EDIC issue, mine has been removed and replaced...

    AltFuel Injector line heaters to preheat WVO

    In regards to your acidic question, I am not 100% sure, but I beleive the salt and baking soda method may solve some of this issue. I don't really think it matters how acidic it is for running SVO, but it is more important for making BioD. Brian Miller is the guru on this subject...

    new primer pump, now it wont run?

    So I got another Benz pump, it is all they have at my parts store. I taped the threads with Teflon tape while I was at, figured it can't hurt right? Screwed it in good and tight, pumped some fuel out of the bleeder screws, the second of which I did not know existed till I read the manual...

    new primer pump, now it wont run?

    So I replaced the primer pump on my 2H, because it was all beat up. I thought, no problem, this will be easy, be done in time for dinner. So I screwed the old one out, popped in a new one (it was the Mercedes versions, cause I get blank looks at the parts store if I ask for a Toyota). While I...

    AltFuel wvo pre heater - thoughts on this one??

    Oh yes, the coolant flat plate exchanged is the best thing I have done to my veg system. I got a 40 degree bump out of mine. No electrical connections to worry about, will never overheat the fuel etc. Love it.
