    Trade South Florida, 1990 FJ62/12HT

    $15K on "12HT rebuild" could be a bit misleading, though unintended. Looks like I spent $13,170 to have the engine removed, rebuilt, then re installed. Plus another $1,722. to have the injection pump rebuilt. ( documented on another receipt) I recon I should move this post over to the 60 series...

    Trade South Florida, 1990 FJ62/12HT

    The shop was named Stoney's at the time. Albert Tempro was running the show. Albert is a very talented and knowledgable Land cruiser specialist, I wish him the best. Dirk

    Trade South Florida, 1990 FJ62/12HT

    To me the value of the truck is more than the sum total of the effort and receipts. Which is why we do this, we value the rig more than the money. Which is fine until you have to justify it to another, convince someone else to value it the same way you do. I got to the stage with this 60...

    Trade  South Florida, 1990 FJ62/12HT

    I am interested in sourcing a Troopy, FZJ or HZJ 75 or 78. I am most interested some type of trade deal, looking for someone who recognizes the value of the time, effort and quality that has gone into this LC and wants to offer a Troopy, completed or potential, of comparable value. 6/2011 -...

    Does the 2H oil pan fit on a 12HT?

    Different PN# 2H = 12101-68012 and 12HT = 12101-68030. (I have same question regarding the compatibility of the oil cooler and housing).Thank you

    12HT air in fuel system?

    BINGO! A clogged crappy little $5 inline filter on the fuel tank. Change the paradigm! ALL of you who participate in the troubleshooting process in these forums are invaluable! Thank you and God Bless.

    12HT air in fuel system?

    I replaced the hand pump with a (Bosch) spare that I had, no change. The fuel lines from the filter to pump are crimped with banjo fittings. Is the "nozzle leakage pipe a fuel return line? Should I be able to bleed the system there, or should I try where the fuel enters the injector. I agree it...

    12HT air in fuel system?

    Unfortunately, I read the FSM "AFTER" changing the fuel filter. I definitely introduced a lot of air into the system. The truck runs fine around town but when I accelerate on the highway the engine will sputter and loose power. I have bled the filter as per the FSM, no change. I have attempted...

    (FJ62) 12HT sweet spot?

    12HT swamprunner, The PO did the conversion, when I took over the truck had the A442 and I think 3.7 gears. Ran smooth as silk, purred down the highway at 70. Now I have a rebuilt engine, H55, 4.11 and it feels more like a really fast tractor. Check your oil cooler, mine had very bad corrosion...

    (FJ62) 12HT sweet spot?

    load Tim, I found your web page, that explains boost a bit better. So if torque isn't a factor of load then that would leave heat ? (Cylinder/combustion chamber temp) I have a new engine and I want to break it in properly. At 50 mph, is it better to drive in 4th gear @2000rpm with 7lbs boost...

    (FJ62) 12HT sweet spot?

    so does more boost/ fuel mean more torque? Is engine load a factor of torque? Is this extra boost utilized throughout the 1800- 2500 rpm range or only at the top end?

    (FJ62) 12HT sweet spot?

    Yes, 174-175 degree engine water temp. There are no hills here in south Florida so I haven't been able to test the EGT limits. I read guys are running 15 - 19 lbs of boost on these engines, where are those BTUs being utilized? My turbo seems to kick in around 1800, 10-12 lbs of boost seems...
