    3vze Help! Issues after timing belt!!!

    Ok so not long ago my timing belt tensioner went bad. I have never replaced a timing belt on this motor, so I had my concerns. I used a FSM so I was not too concerned. I checked and checked my timing marks to make sure the lined up right and they did. So tonight I went to fill it back up with...

    3.0 Timing Belt Issues

    Ok so, recently on start-up I would hear this high pitched screeching coming from under that timing cover, the water pump and timing belt was replaced recently so I have to assume it either the idler or the tensioner. I have never replaced a timing belt before, so... I thought to myself I could...

    Clunking from front end after SAS?

    I seem to be getting a loud clunk that feels like its on the pass. side when going around turns at low speed, especially when there is a bump as well. No noise at high speed.

    Vibes from rear after SAS?

    So I think I am getting some driveline vibes when I am accelerating and decelerating through just about any gear. I notice it most in second gear. If I mash in the clutch it stops though. It only seems to do it under a load. Could this be driveshaft imbalance? This is a Trail gear SAS kit, 4...

    Think I can turn 35's?

    So my truck is at the shop right now getting SASed and I am looking at moving up to 35's from my 33's. So I had 4.88's installed awhile back to turn the 33's. I ran about 65 down the interstate at 3,000rpm, which I always thought was kinda high. So you think my 300k V6 will turn 35's?

So anyway I replaced the speedo cable because the transfer end of it was broken anyway. It still didnt work properly... So...

    1F Oil Pressure

    My '72 1F seems to have real low oil pressure. What should it normally read going down the road and at idle. At idle the needle is only between the 1st and 2nd line. When running down the road at about 2.5k its reading a little below the middle. Is this normal, could it be my oil press. sensor...

    Popping noise from exhaust?

    I noticed on my 72 FJ40 there is a popping noise from the tailpipe under load. Its not the same popping that occurs when I let off the gas and decelerates. Its just random popping, not extremely loud I dont think its backfire. There is no hesitation, I know there is a little exhaust leak around...

    Where does the hose for the carb insulator go? The Chiltons manual claims to go back to 1970 but they excluded my beloved F engine in the vacuum diagram section. Thanks!

    Carb Help~!

    Where does the vacuum hookup from the carb insulator go? It seems like it is so close to the carb. It doesnt look like I can fit a hose on it. And how does the throttle cable linkage hook up on a 72 F motor? Pics would be wonderful. Thank you! Andy
