    SOLD  FJ60 fusible link: PA

    Used fusible link from 1985 FJ60. Was having electrical/charging issues. Replaced alternator and issues still persisted. Running out of ideas I bought a new fusible link. After additional trouble shooting, determined that it was my alternator (faulty rebuild) so now I have an extra fusible...

    FJ60, brake and battery charge light on

    Hi All--1985 FJ60. The brake light and battery charge light were flickering and then staying on when driving. Also low voltage in instrument cluster, and low voltage with voltmeter at battery when truck was running. I took out the alternator (original toyota part) and had it rebuilt by a shop...

    Gas tank failure, 2000 w/210k in PA

    Hi All- I live in PA and my 100 is starting to fall victim to road salt. Its not my daily drive, but I've been nursing it along. It has spent all 19 of years here in PA... The latest damage is the fuel tank. Slow gas leak (few drops an hour) from what appears to be the seam area. Any one...

    2000 LC, normal idle speed

    Does anyone know the normal idle speed, warm engine, a) in Park, and b) in Drive with the brakes on? My battery died while replacing the headlight. Once the battery was recharged the LC would not idle at all. It drove fine but when I took my foot off the accelorator the engine would...

    Problems with new CV/axle on 2000 LC

    At 160,000 miles, the CV boot were cracked and no grease left. I had the L and R replaced by mechanic who does very good work. Drove around town for about a week with no problems but the first time I took it out on the highway it felt like a I had a flat. The vibration in the front end...

    Finally pulled the trigger on the OME Medium Load Lift Kit from Slee Offroad (1.5 inch leveling, Nitrocharger Sport shocks, Slee diff drop, 865 springs, torsion bars). My 2000 rig (160,000 miles) was stock except for Bilstiens and 285-75R16 tires. Here are my initial impressions. My local...

    AC condensation, passenger side

    I have a 2000 w/ 112,000 miles. No issues with AC until this weekend. It appears that condensation is accumulating inside the vehicle, just under the glove box on the passenger side. Maybe about 1 cup of water is on the floor mat after the AC has been running for 1/2-hour. Otherwise, the...

    Starter and timing belt at same time?

    Is there any economic advantage to replacing the timing belt and starter at the same time compared to two separate jobs? I have a 2000 with 105,000 miles. I believe the starter contacts are going bad, but the dealership's reco is replace the entire starter. On occassion (1X/week) but...

    Tire chains did the job

    One set of tire chains (front only) from Costco ($79) made a huge difference in a muddy hill climb to the cabin in Maine. I have a stock 2000, with the exception of Billsteins and Revo's. It was loaded down with hunting gear and a week's worth of food/water. Without the tire chains, I made...

    dash/temp control panel light out

    The light in the dash behind the temperature control and fan speed knobs is blown. For awhile, it was just dim but now its out. Mostly its an inconvenience, at night I can't see the settings w/o turning on the overhead dome light. I removed the bezel around the radio to gain access. The...

    world's most expensive oil change

    I took the 2000LC (80,000 miles) to the dealership for an oil change and to 1) check out a ticking noise when cold; and 2)slow/noisy power window. They called back today with an estimate: $2300 to replace cracked exhaust manifold (L and R); also said oxygen sensors will probably need to be...

    brake power booster noise?

    When I turn the ignition key on, I can hear a pump of some sort that makes a low buzzing-type noise. It seems to be located on the drivers side, not too deep behind the instrument cluster. Is this the brake power booster pump? Over the last few months, I've noticed the pump stays on...

    I like big underwear

    My 2000LC is mostly stock and only occassionaly gets used off-road. On a recent hunting trip, I was very impressed at the degree of protection provided by the skid plates. I have about a 1 mile washed-out logging road to get to the cabin, its very steep. The front bumper and trailer hitch...

    how to remove dash plate around ashtray?

    I don't have any power to the cig. lighter or power adapter on the center dash (under radio, in front of gear shift). When I remove the ashtray, I can see that wires that should plug into the lighter/adapter are disconnected. I think the previous owner had something mounted in that space...

    Bad transmission on 2000

    I have a 2000 TLC with 71,000 miles on it. Bought it used at the dealership 1 year ago. I'm glad it was a Toyota Certified Used Vehicle with a warranty, or else I'd be about $3750 in the hole. The transmission started to make a "Errr...Err...Err..." especially in overdrive. It was subtle...
