I am trying to track down the cause of my fluctuating temperature. Over the past few months, I have been dealing with a lot of heating issues. The PHH went, the radiator split and a few other misc hoses were replaced.
When I first start the 80, the truck warms up to about 140/150 according to...
Has anyone modified the bottom cushion seat bolstering? On my new truck the bolstering is hitting me on both sides and has kicked off some terrible sciatica. I love the truck otherwise but I can’t stand to drive it.
And yes I test-drove it and no it didn’t bother me during the test drive. And...
That is possible as I know the grommet is in fact missing. I'm just kicking myself because I havd actually purchased the PHH kit I just didnt have a weekend that wasnt super hot or raining in the last 2 months.
I'm not sure on the accuracy, at just about the same time it also gave the code P0115 which seems to be the coolant temp sensor. I'm not sure if went off as a result of getting fried from overheating or vise versa. I'm going to have a mechanic take a look, but it wont be for a few weeks and hope...
Yesterday after a short spin, my truck started to overheat. It went from normal temps to 280+ according to the Scangauge. I was able to get it home, I'm sure I should have just stopped driving when it happened, but I was close and there were other things going on at the time, which led me to...
I got a Scheel-Mann and for a while I wasnt really happy. Then I got some seat jackers that change the angle and it much better. They took sometime to get used as they got more broken in.
I just pulled an ABS Code 13 from my 80 and I wondering what the best way to troubleshoot is. I'm new to working on anything brake related.
From the FSM this is what is noted -
ABS control (motor) relay
Open or short in ABS control (motor) relay circuit
Thanks!
It is a 96. So technically a FZJ80. The coolant in my radiator is reddish more like rust to be honest. I think some one mixed red and green. I'd say I'm due for a flush.
The headgasket was done by the PO like 4k ago so most look good. I'm still trying to figure out the origin, but ill start by just tightening some hose clamps and go from there.
I was a Rover guy too. Sold my 110 last year. I havent found an RN style set up. Wits End has a lot to offer, I have been using parts.toyota.com to get part numbers and diagrams and then search the web there.
Today when I start up the 80, I let it run for a little bit since it was cold. About 30 degrees. I came out about 10 mins later and there was a small puddle of coolant (or at least I assume it is coolant) under the car. It is brownish red. It was on the driver's side, kind of under the battery...
Hey apologies for the JV level question but my 96 has security lug nuts for every lug nut. I wanted to swap them out to standard-issue so I bought some M12-1.50 Thread 13/16 with the washer which are supposed to fit a '96 rim. When I installed them the washer doesn't seem to seat on the rim. Any...
