    1987 FJ60 - No Rust! - $1,000 - Falls Church, VA

    Looks like it worth it but, I was just wondering what others think. Did the knee dent on the glove box come from the ice dance partner in the passenger seat or another seperate front end hit?

    Carburetion options

    Maybe change fuel filter if you have not already. mine acted the same way one time. The engine would rev up OK when not under load but when going uphill it would stumble an "buck". must have gotten something in the fuel. Good luck

    Gurgling, slurping

    Mine did the same thing, only after draining radiator and refilling. what i believe you hear is the antifreeze be pumped either thru the engine or heator core at startup. make sure your expansion tank is at the proper level and the radiator is full. proper rad cap and pressure. It seems like the...

    Does your PS pump growl below 20 degrees?

    started mine this morning at 5 degF. groaned about 3-4 minutes during longer than normal warmup when idling, went away after driving a couple of miles. Topped off full right now. Lucas seems like a good idea.

    Thank you all for the advice, I did change trouble shootin mode to fuel starvation as suggested and discovered that when the engine shuts off the fix right now is relieving high pressure buildup on the gas tank. It starts right away and since then I have loosened the cap while running and...
