    a/c circuit breaker tripping on 85 FJ60

    The A/C circuit breaker keeps tripping about 10 seconds after the A/C button is pushed on my 85 FJ60. I gave up trying to find the problem and took it to a local mechanic. This is what he has replaced so far; Amplifier, Blower Motor, Circuit Breaker. Next thing on the list is to replace the...

    A/C and Heater Controls not Working

    The entire Heat/AC control panel is dead on the wife's 98 LX470. It is blowing out warm air at a low fan speed but the lights and controls are totally dead. I checked the fuses and all looks OK. Has anyone had a similar problem? Thanks

    No power to Heater and AC

    Ok Anyone with A/C and heater expertise? My heater and A/C are totally dead. The blower motor doesn't turn on, the A/C light doesn't light up or engage the A/C, even the backlight behind the front plate doesn't light up. Also, the rear heater doesn't work. I have checked the fuses and they...

    Bucking in 3rd gear

    Had a problem last night driving up a small hill in 4th gear approx 45 mph. The engine was acting a little weak so I dropped it into 3rd and it started to buck on me. It did it the rest of the way home but I only noticed it when going up hill or when I was topping out on the tach. It tends to...

    My best cruiser week yet

    What a great week. I installed an OME Dakar suspension on my rig. My arms are about to fall off from the pounding turning and lifting but it was worth it. A big difference over the what looked to be the original stock springs. So, I finished up with the upgrade about 3am on Friday morning...

    Dakar Spring Install Problem??

    I just installed the Dakar springs on my 60 and believe everything is correct. But.....the rear is noticeably higher than the front. I believe the shackles are on correctly but I noticed that on the front shackles they rotate forward about 30 degrees. The rear shackles are pretty much...

    Steering Dampener Removal

    Hey All, I am trying to replace my steering dampener but can't get the old one off. Passenger side came off with a little PB lube and some hammering. Drivers side is another issue. I've tried heat, PB lube, pitman arm puller(because it is smaller, I can only get one of the claws to grab...

    Carb vacuum line mess

    I just got my carb back from Jim C. (very nice job by the way) and something doesn't look quite right the way I have my vacuum lines hooked up. Does anyone have detailed close up pics of the lines going to the carb from their origins?

    Do I need a carb gasket??

    I just got my carb back from Jim C and am ready to slap it back on. When I took it off there was no gasket to be seen (except the one that looks like it is molded onto the insulator). Do I need another gasket? Thanks!

    FJ60 Dieseling after shutoff

    I saw this problem posted a few months ago and now I am cursed with it. From the previous thread I have checked timing, plug rating and gap and fuel cutoff solenoid. All OK. I've had the problem since I had the head rebuilt and valve job done. Logic would point to the valve clearances not being...

    o2 sensor replacement on cat converter

    I am replacing my cat converter with one from cat converters.com. I pullled out the o2 sensor and it has a thin white build up on it. Should this be cleaned? Also, how far in should the sensor be imbedded? Thanks!

    Compression on a 2F

    I have an 85' 2F 60 168,000 miles with 140, 140, 110, 130, 60 :(, 140 psi on my cylinders. The engine idles rough and has a strong smelling (rich)exhaust. No smoke though. All of the plugs look good. No fouling on any of them. My first hunch is valves. Second hunch, rings. Any one else out...

    Wild idle and noise when A/C on

    When I turned on my A/C for the first time this year the engine was making some weird noise and idled wildly from high to low. I bought it over the winter(and didn't test the A/C) so I don't know if it ever worked properly. The gas pedal also depressed on it's own I guess to compensate for the...

    Pitting on axle end

    I just finished putting new wheel seals on the left front side of my FJ60 and noticed that the axle had pitting on it. I considered sanding it to make it smoother but thought it may make it worse. The pitting probably helped in the failure of the rubber and felt gasket in the rear. Any ideas on...

    Exhaust fumes

    Hey Everyone, I recently purchased my first Landcruiser.........on Ebay. Yea, that was probably my first mistake. An 85'FJ60 w/164,000 miles. I have loved both the 40's and 60's for a long time and finally was able to get one. I am a definite newbie to Land Cruisers and need some guidance...
