I have crawled under the engine with it in neutral and the hand throttle holding it at 1000RPM, the engine, tranny and transfer case seem to vibrate as an entire unit. I can not see any visable difference between the engine, flex plate and bell housing etc. What are your thoughts? That the...
I have an 89' 62 with 175K on it. I had some work done on the transfer case a couple years ago, the shop pulled the tranny to do the work. Ever since then I have had an engine vibration that is more pronounced when the engine is cold. It starts at about 800 RPM and then dissipates at about 1100...
Thanks Chitown 40
What is and how do I fix an exhaust tick? I got underneath the engine while it was running, it sounds mechanically rough around the oil pan.
Thanks again for any suggestions.
I have an 89' FJ62 with 180K miles. There is a ticking sound that just started, I can hear it when the truck starts to move in "D". The tick speeds up as the engine RPM's go up. I do not hear it when sitting in neutral or stopped in "D". It sounds like it is coming from below the transmission...
Why Pull The Engine?
Have you done any tests to isolate the problem?
I would pull the oil pan and look for debris. If none rotate the crank until you can get a good look at each cylinder. Worst case pull the head and remove each piston/rod and inspect. The only reason I suggest this is due to...
Coolant?
How is your coolant level? I had similar pattern in SoCal (89' 62-175K) with slight coolant loss especially after freeway travel. Turned out ot be a tiny crack in the head. $$$$$ later and all is good.
Good Luck

My 89' 62 has the identical part, i have had it apart many times and there has always been condensate collected in it. Mine is starting to rust from the inside out. The strange thing is it should be under positive pressure from the smog pump once the engine heats...
I think everybody is partially right! The 20oz rating on the CO2 bottle is a liquid volume capacity. The conversion from US-Fluid Onces to Cubic Inches is:
1 Fluid Once = 1.80469 cubic inches
The 20oz bottle has an approximate internal volume of
40 cubic inches (assuming a 10% head space in...
I also own an 89' FJ62 (175K) in SanDiego. I had Transmasters by IN & Out Burger in PB do it and it was a nightmare. They are the most incompetent and unprofessional business I have ever dealt with. They claimed to have years of experience with Land Cruisers and other 4x4's, I was sold. They...
