    Head bolts; 1.5 vs 2F what's the difference and why?

    I pulled my cylinder head the other day, routine valve job, 4 of the head bolts have washers, 11 are shouldered. They look pretty much the same otherwise. What is the actual difference between the Late F and the 2F head bolts? Why are they different? Is the difference in the blocks or in the heads?

    What year light switch is this?

    Assuming it's a headlight switch for a 40 or 55. I should put it in classifieds, but should be able to state what it fits. 6 spade plugs on it, 3 position in-out pull-push. Has a TEQ stamped on it and a number "003". If that's the part number it's gotta be pretty early

    First, very bad noises. Then, no power...

    Pulling out of the storage area last night, after replacing my manifold gaskets, in 2nd gear, hoping to merge with traffic, I got a sudden and terrible bad grinding noise. I think from the front end of the transmission. And an equally terrible bad loss of power. Engine was running fine, but...

    Will 40/55 brake fluid reservoirs fit on an 80 brake M/C?

    Planning on updating the brake master in my '74 FJ55. Sent away for City Racer's brake booster, went to Napa for a master cylinder. Got an 80 master, non-ABS, it was in stock! But it didn't come with a brake fluid reservoir. Got back in line and inquired about one. "We don't even list those"...
