    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...

    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...

    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...

    Oil Light

    Gentlemen, OK, I about s#&* myself on the way to work today. My engine oil light came on briefly while driving into work today. I was running around 60mph, oil guage was between the top two marks (normal for my rig). I saw the light on for about 5-10 seconds, and then it went out...

    stuck ignition key solution/radiator question

    Gentlemen, Thanks for the advice on the ‘stuck’ ignition. I was pretty sure a new key would not fix it, as the door locks still worked fine with the original and all copies I had made. Turns out that the ignition lock cylinder was bad. Not real common, but apparently it happens. I was able to...
