*Correction - the event is on Sunday August 20th.
Mostly a Jeep and Harley event but should be a good time. The $10 goes to a law enforcement charity:

I have a relatively new small cap dizzy (less than 5K on it) that was running a little rough recently - pulled it out and the distributor shaft itself was hard to rotate and it had a gritty blackish powder/grit in the bottom of the housing beneath the counterweights and springs - I verified the...

I just picked up a set of OEM sun visors from Toyota. I installed them and they hang down far too low in my opinion - so much so that there is a 1" gap above the visor and the top of the windshield when the visor is down. I checked CCOT's site and they had a pic of the visors and appear...

If I understand correctly, the screw circled in blue is the idle speed adjustment screw, and the screw circled in red is the idle mixture adjustment screw - correct?
I need to replace the accelerator pedal boot in the firewall - number 65 in the diagram. According to SOR and Toyota, the part is no longer available - anyone know of a suitable replacement?
I have a desmogged Aisan on my 76 2F and it currently sputters and stalls if I make a hard left turn. Braking makes no difference. I took the top off the carb and checked for dirt/grime in the jets and needle/seat - both are clean. I initially thought the fuel level was low in the bowl and was...
I just installed a SOR Extreme Plus Summer top - it's similar to a regular bikini top except it covers the back of the cab. I like the top itself when the vehicle is stopped but as soon as I start driving the top violently flaps in the wind and bubbles up. I have it tightened down pretty tight...
I have a tapping sound coming from what sounds like the top end when the engine is under load. At first, I thought it was just the valves - even though I've checked and rechecked the valve clearances when the engine is hot. Next, I thought it was pinging but retarding the timing has no effect -...
Fine tuning a mini p/s install on my '76 - when the drag link end cap screw (the one with the cotter pin through it) bottoms out do you back it off 1/4 turn or 1/2 turn??
Thanks

Rear diff spider gears are making a "clacking" noise - I'm guessing this isn't normal?
I took a look inside the rear diff and it looks like the spiders are rising/falling on the side gears when moving, making the noise. The spacer in the middle moves up and down a bit as well. There is a 1 -...
I sourced an oil filter at NAPA that looks very similar to the OEM Toyota design. The filter is made by Altrom and is p/n 361-2408 - NAPA's p/n is ATM 3612408. It has "Nippon Filter" on it along with various other Japanese text. NAPA also lists the same filter but in a longer 5 1/4" inch version...
I replaced my clutch master and slave cylinder today and I noticed something odd. When I have the OEM spring that goes between the slave cylinder and the fork installed - it depresses the slave rod all the way which I would think would be the intent. The problem is, at that point my clutch pedal...
I'm putting the 40 back together after paint and I noticed that the fuel separator cover looks remarkably similar to the 4-Speed shift pattern - anyone else notice this?
I'm getting the parts together for my mini p/s swap and need the mini steering box. Anyone know of one available locally - central FL? If not, I'll order one in through a salvage yard. Thanks.

I'm only running 33x10.50 BFG AT's and the rig won't see too much of the rough stuff, but it seems like a good idea to upgrade the tie and relay rods when converting over to p/s as the factory stuff looks like it's prone to getting bent. I plan on keeping the 40 TRE's if possible (Bud can do...
I snapped this pic a while back prior to adjusting the valves. The tips look liked they've been blued? Is this normal? The engine was rebuilt by the PO. Valves have since been adjusted and the engine is running fine.
I need to replace the windshield on my '76. I would like all-clear glass - no blue/green tint at the top.
Does the OEM windshield part number 56111-90303 have the blue/green tint or is it clear?
Thanks :beer:
Would these work on a 40 bolted through the bumper with a hefty backing plate on the reverse side? Obviously, the OEM black hook would be more appropriate. . .

Is there a bracket that will allow me to install the saginaw p/s pump using the stock holes? I'd rather use these instead of the head bolt if possible - anyone else done this?
