    For Sale  1987 FJ60 in NJ $1,500 OBO

    I am selling my 1987 FJ60. Asking $1,500 or best offer. I have had the truck for a dozen years, and it has served me well, but I don't have much use for it anymore, so I can't justify keeping it. It has 178K on the odometer, and I drive it every day, though it is mostly to move it to the...

    Clubhosue posts with Mud links need mod approval

    We just noticed that TUT clubhouse posts with links to things on Mud all of a sudden need mod approval. If you link to an attachment or another Mud thread, you get this: Anyone else having this issue?

    So who was in Port Jeff this weekend?

    As I was driving and parking the TDI "offroad" :D this weekend, someone rolled by in a white 80 with huge tires (35-37s?). :D It was raining and I was more concerned about my son falling off the cliff we were standing on, so I didn't check out the truck too closely, but it looked like nice...

    Turn signals/Hazards finally fixed

    I know, not a big tech subject, but this has been an annoying gremlin on and off for years. Over the past few years, my turn signals/hazard flasher would sometimes blink slowly, sometimes even just stopping in the "on" position. I bought a new relay, that did nothing. I cleaned all the...

    Toilet trouble. . . .

    So it turns out the stain that showed up a couple days ago on the first floor ceiling is from our toilet on the second floor. :frown: Every time we flush, a few drops filter through. :eek: Luckily, we did the testing with clean water in the bowl. :rolleyes: Because of the location of the...

    If you feed your dog Diamond dog food. I know this was posted in another thread in December, but just wanted to make sure it got prominent place in chat. http://www.consumeraffairs.com/news04/2006/01/dog_food_diamond.html

    "article" on the FJ

    The first paragraph cracks me up--are they actually trying to market it to the WalMart crowd? Or are they marketing it to the Cabela's crowd that wants to pose as the WalMart crowd? :rolleyes...

    I can't express myself. . . .

    Wooooooody, I can't get the flipoff smiley to work! All I get is: :flipoff2: Did the new software reset my options or something? Or did you get it from Bill Bennett? :rolleyes:

    Humming/vibration at speed when turning left

    Subject line practically says it all. When I'm above 25 mph and turning the steering wheel to the left, I get a humming/vibration out of the front end (sounds almost like tire noise, but I have very non-agressive tread). When truck is turning right, no noise. This happens when truck is in 2wd...

    Who's that knocking at my door?

    Okay, 2F engine with 177k on it, starting to get a tapping that sounds like it's from the bottom end (not the valves). It doesn't seem to be noticeable when the truck is first started, but after it warms up a bit it's definitely audible. It's in synch with RPMs of the engine, just a modest...

    What the hell IS that sound????

    Finally determined what that weird sound was that I've been hearing increasingly for a few months. :rolleyes: I had a lot work done last fall--new clutch, valve adjustment (hadn't been done in a LONG time), smog pump, fan clutch, etc. One day, after I had driven for an hour or so, I started...

    Since when did I have MTs?

    My 60 just developed a rumble in the back, like I've got mud tires. Slows down/speeds up with tire speed, not related to engine speed at all. When I lightly apply the brakes, the rumble disappears entirely. It sounds as if it's coming from the left rear, but I could be wrong--haven't had...

    Aisin carb rebuild questions

    Finally starting on rebuilding the Aisin carb on my 87 FJ60 with 2F. I've got the factory manual, a rebuild kit from Jim C. I've disassembled the carb, placing the parts in three boxes to keep track of them (air horn, fuel body, and flange). BUT, I've got three questions. 1. I don't have the...

    New clutch job, now making mild noises

    I had a clutch job done about 800 miles ago--new clutch, new t/o, new pilot, resurfacing, etc.--and while the clutch works great, I'm getting some noises. I know it's cold, but on startup I get a quiet, high-pitched whine; when I push clutch pedal down, I get a different whine. None of these...

    Home heating question (bleed valve?)

    The heating system in our house is hot water baseboard. The zone for the top floor has been making some noise recently, so I have to get the air out of the system again, and the only I can do that is flushing it from the furnace end, which is a bit of a pain (shut off furnace, attach hose...

    Unexpected revs while braking????

    I was coming down a hill approaching a stop light, going maybe 35 mph, shifted out of third into neutral, started to apply the brake, suddenly the engine revved from 1500 to 2500 without me touching anything but the brake, then cut back down to idle after about a second. I *don't think* it was...

    How angry do I get?

    Last summer my throwout bearing seized. My old mechanic replaced it, including all the labor charged to drop the tranny, but said there was a lot of life left in the clutch, etc. Drove it for over a year. This summer, got the same throwout bearing noise, bit the bullet and had a new mechanic...

    Radiators

    It's summer, and once again my temp gauge is going up. I thought it was the "spiking gauges" thing, but that's fixed. I'm beginning to think my rad ain't working too good. Here's a typical incident: I run an errand, driving twenty minutes at about 40 mph, things are fine. I park, run errand...
