Thanks for kind words and yes will def miss her, she has LPG conversion and here in the UK it is 79p per litre so its not to bad and you cant notice any difference, is LPG easy to get over in the states?
I just would like to say this forum has been great to me over here in the UK and I know most on here live in the USA, you have all been very kind and very helpful in the 8 years I have had the Cruiser.
As you probably know Fuel over here in the UK is very expensive and my other car is a 6...
HT leads
Whats the best way to get a full set to here in the UK (near London) I would be gratefull if someone would buy me a set and I would send you the cash via paypal and you could then send them to me as a gift, as I would have to pay tax when they arrived here in the UK if they were sent...
Hi all.... I live in the UK and have had my FZJ80 for quite a few years now, it has covered 185K on the same HT leads and I now think I need to replace them, over here in the UK they are very expensive, what sort of cost are there for a full set over with you in the USA
Thanks for all the replies they are much appreciated, I just measured both wheels from face of where the wheel bolts on, to the edge of the inside of the rim, standard Toyota wheel is 4 3/4 and modular wheels are 4 1/2 inches
Well that's good to know, thanks for the reply john, perhaps I should put the at2's on my rims, but still have tread on my bridgestones and would rather have the at2's just for winter and just swap over when needed.
The at2's are on Mitsubishi alloys 6 hole, perhaps they will fit straight on...
It's winter here in the uk and we have had the worst snowfall in 17 years, it only lasted six days and has all now gone but more is predicted next week.
The tires on my 80 are standard 275 x 70 x 16 bridgstones which are more of a road tire which is normally ok for uk weather, I have decided...
Cat fitted back in place today, not nice laying in snow :-( but all done now and hope mpg go back up to the 190 that I normally get.
Will let you all know how I get on, does anyone know how I can check out the u2 sensor I do have a multimeter.
thanks for all the replies, yes I am running an lpg system, I did not mention it as it may have complicated things, the fzj80's here in the uk only ever run one pre cat o2 sensor, that's why I thought it shouldn't make any difference to the fuel consumption if I removed the second cat (how would...
Really sorry to hear of your truck HG going :-(
Mine has done 180k and suspect mine will fail sooner of later, I do keep an eye out for all the usual signs of HG failure.
Hope you get it sorted ok matey.
I had to remove the rear cat from my 1996 4.5 fzj80 because it had rotted and blown a hole, I thought it would be fine to run just one cat in the system, at the same time I took the cat out I noticed the lambda sensor retaining nuts had rotted away badly, the only way I could get the off was to...
I have had to temp remove the second cat on my fzj80 4.5 as it has rotted just back from the flange, I have at the moment put in a straight section of pipe.
will removing the cat have any problems to the engine or fuel consumption or is there something I need to do?
After replacing the hoses on the auto box cooler, I still had a leak :-( taking the front fender off again, I noticed that the leak is coming from the bottom cooler hose connection, the alloy pipe that comes out of the cooler has corroded in one tiny place and leaking, has anyone else had this...
