    Idle drop issue

    Gentlemen, My 94 FZJ80 has a solid idle at a stoplight when the heater is not running. I notice an ever so slight drop (maybe 600 rpm or just a bit less) if I have my heater/blower on the high position at a stop. I was thinking alternator or voltage regulator. Any ideas or suggestions...

    Damaged inner PS axle?

    'Speedi-sleeve' For $75 I would replace the PS axle. For the cost of a DS (long side) I would use a 'speedi-sleeve'. NAPA $40. I have some grooved axle's that I got with some birf's I bought, which will be getting the sleeves when needed. Chris 94 FZJ80 142K Locked 2.5 OME 285's DD Pin...

    Birf disassembly Qs

    I would stay away from the kerosene, just me anyway. I used this gnarly engine type degreaser (napthalene), and all it did was take forever to clean the parts, and ate the $15 gloves I bought from Home Depot. Go to Harbor Freight (if you live n Ft Collins, it is just past where the parts...

    Lost keys...need to use 80...help

    Ignition cylinder removal If I am not mistaken, the tumbler will not come out (using the button on the bottom ot the column) unless the ignition is in the ACC position. IE: you will need the key if you wish to keep the tumbler usuable. Chris

    Head Gasket Photos

    NOVA, Yeah, I think it is just a maintenance issue at 150K or so. I should get another 150K out if it, so it was money well spent IMO. lxed, s*** is right man. Bummer, I guess that is the reason I went ahead and got it done. Maybe Robbie, or some other 1FZ wrench would be up for some...

    Head Gasket Photos

    Gentlemen, Robbie recently replaced my HG, and several other parts on my 94 FZJ 141K. I have been running Toyo red since flushing the green/grey coolant that was in the vehicle when I bought it in OCT 04. The truck has never had any overheating issues, but I did have to replace a leaking...

    so what else to replace, HG gone

    Romer, They frickin' rock, if for no other reason than I had ZERO wait time for my PM. Robble was just getting them back right before I got him my rig. Funny, but the attention to detail and professionalism seemed to help the queasy feeling I got when my cash made a whoosh sound that I can...

    Mixing oil brands; M1 Rotella T

    RT, I am not 100% sure, but I thought that was the only 40W Mobil I saw (10-40, oh and 15-40). I live in Northern Colorado. I checked the Super Wal Mart in Loveland, Ft Collins, and Longmont. The old/small Wal Mart in Ft Collins carries the 5-40 M1, but it is never apparently in stock...

    Mixing oil brands; M1 Rotella T

    'slip' is the phenomenon of oil loss during high rpm's. My understanding of this is that it differs from standard consumption. Both result in oil loss, but slip is RPM dependent (mostly from high speed or rev). I believe Robbie has made comments on this in the past. That, or I am just making...

    Mixing oil brands; M1 Rotella T

    Gentlemen, I have a couple of quarts of Mobil 1 5-40 left. I was unable to find any at the local Wal Mart's (x4). I was however able to pick up the Rotella T 5-40. Would mixing these be a 'no-no' as the different base type/brands?? I really would love to use M1, but all they seem to...

    HG 'type' question

    The specific concern was related to having erosion of the block itself because of the bad HG. The work required to resolve that is on the magnitude of a rebuild (to remove block from vehicle to resurface). That is a potential problem or non issue, but until the head is off I won't know. The...
