    Perplexed ... Could Use Some Advice

    Finally found the problem!!! It took a lot of head-scratching, numerous distributor and carb swaps but I finally figured out why my new engine would not rev above 1,800 RPM. After being totally frustrated after the last distributor swap, I decided to check out the hissing sound coming from...

    powersteering pump removal trouble

    The PS pump bracket has a vertical slot on the back bolt, so all you have to do is loosen it enough to break its grip and remove the front two bolts - it should lift out straight up with the rear bolt still in the pump and just clearing the exhaust manifold. I've just gone through the reverse...

    Perplexed ... Could Use Some Advice

    John, I'll post some photos in a couple of hours (battery died on my cellphone and it's the only digital camera in the house right now). For an update, I switched the distributor last night with the original Toyota distributor and had the same results - limited upper revs. It was also...

    Perplexed ... Could Use Some Advice

    John, Thanks for your input! My question back to you is that if I am off one tooth on the distributor, can't I compensate for that error by spinning the distributor body to line it up? I have nearly 180 degrees of rotation with the distributor body and have swung it every 30 degrees to check...

    Perplexed ... Could Use Some Advice

    Hello All! After sitting 2 years in the driveway, I've just completed the engine replacement in my FJ60 with a 2F engine from a dearly departed FJ55. The new engine came with an early carburetor (F?) and a DUI distributor. I installed those and desmoged the FJ60 in the switchover. My...

    FJ60 with 2F engine performance question

    I just drove from Seattle to Southern California where I delivered our FJ60 to our son at Camp Pendleton. Going over the Siskiyou Pass in Oregon and Tejon Pass in California, I was able to maintain only 35 MPH as I climbed the passes (had to go to 3rd gear above 3,000 ft elevation). The...

    Rear door speakers?

    Try what I did ... our FJ-60 had no rear speakers or cutouts in the rear panels. There were some speaker wires under the rear seats, so I routed them to the back panels with extra speaker wire and attached two computer speakers that were sitting around unused. Some velco attached to the sides...
