    FJ80 trouble starting, everyday.

    Try it at night with the hood open and a friend (neighbor) turning the key. Look for tiny blue sparks jumping around. If it's not moist out spray a mist of water on the plug wires while cranking in the dark.

    3FE Brag

    I was shooting for 300,000 with mine (230,000 currently) but you set the bar a bit higher! Exhaust is next for my '91. This is the best vehicle I've ever owned.

    3FE Stickers?

    The stickers were a big hit so I thought some of you might like T-Shirts. Any of the designs are possible. I was thinking of putting the oval on the left chest and the smiley flip-off on the back. I could leave the back plain, it would be up to the purchaser. $12 and I'd cover shipping.

    weird groaning noise??

    My wheel bearings on the passenger side were bad and I could hear and feel them through the floor board. I also had grinding from the engine compartment which was hard to trace. I have a '91 so your engine would be different, but you probably still have idler pulleys guiding the serpentine belt...

    Spindle question

    Has anyone heard of, or tried, to weld a bead on the worn parts of a spindle (where the bearing rides) and then turn the spindle down on a metal lathe to get it back to spec? I'm having a hard time cracking my wallet for another $500 on this knuckle rebuild. Both spindles are worn on the bottom...

    3FE Stickers?

    About 4"x6" I can make any size you want, but this size fits in a regular envelope. That's why they are only $5.00. Cheers, tusk

    wiper orientation

    Have searched and can not get a good answer as to which way the rubber wiper on the back of the knuckle should face - ridge facing diff. or ridge facing spindle. Here's what I found: Removed both sides and paid close attention to original orientation. BOTH sides had ridge facing the Spindle...

    3FE Stickers?

    Sorry to those of you that already bought the stickers, but Lka1988 and jonheld say it should read 3F-E. I hope the 3FE police don't pull you over for displaying such an error in engine designation! I know, this should be in chat. I appologize in advance.

    3FE Stickers?

    Good eye. I'll fix that! It will look more like to one pictured at the top of this post.

It would be best to email me at mtescari@hotmail.com as I check that much more frequently. $5.00 and I'll cover postage. Paypal works...

    Knuckle rebuild - Swapping sides Question

    Hello, I am in the middle of a knuckle rebuild (91 FJ80 214,000 miles and probably never serviced) and would like some input. I am questioning if I should swap sides with the birfs. I do not get any clicking now while I am driving forward (maybe a little with the wheel hard over). I DO get...

    three lights on in cluster

    I checked all connections and they were good. I just pulled the alt. last month and cleaned everything up before I reinstalled the rebuilt alt. The rebuilt unit did act a little different that before it went bad. The gauge was always rock solid even with all lights on, heater, defroster, brake...

    three lights on in cluster

    AT light, Brake light, and low battery light all came on at the same time. It did this last month and the voltage regulator was bad. Had the alternator rebuilt and it worked fine for 30 days althought the voltage gauge didn't seem to go up as high as it did before this happened. All electronics...

    92 FJ80 slips between 2nd and 3rd at light throttle, any idea's?

    Mine does the exact same thing. I just try to go a little heavier on the gas when accelerating. Maybe I'll look into the kick down cable adjustment, but I don't think this hurts anything??

    FJ80/FZJ80 T-Shirts

    These shirts are a heavy duty Gildan T-Shirt. The front left chest has the oval logo and the back of the shirt has the Twin Cam design or the 3FE design. They are not cheap, see through shirts. You will not be disappointed with the quality. I will make black shirts with white graphics and...

    anyone's 3fe sound slightly like a diesel?

    Noisey fuel injectors is my vote. Mine sounds the same and I adjusted the valves as soon as I bought it with 160k. Valves were all in spec. Didn't change the noise. Put the handle of a long screw driver to your ear and touch the other end to one of the injectors. You'll immediately hear where...

    1991 cruise control

    You might already know that you can diagnose the cruise from the front seat. Mine wouldn't engage but the cruise light would go on. Turned out to be the speed sensor which is exactly what the blinking code during the diagnosis told me. Good luck.
