    Glad it was still under warranty - barely

    I first noticed a slight stumble at idle when stopping at a stop light. No check engine light. Thought I might have picked up some bad fuel or something. In a day or two the check engine light did come on, so a friend scoped it with his DIY gadget and it came up with a problem at the #2...

    Sequoia air injection system

    Two years ago on a road trip our 2012 Sequoia 4.6 went into limp mode. Limped it into a Toyota dealer and they diagnosed a bad air injection switching valve which they replaced and we went on our way. No issues since then and the truck runs great but last week the check engine light came on...

    Looking at a 2019 Sequoia

    It's a 4WD Platinum. I currently have a 2012 SR-5 4WD with the smaller 4.6 L V-8. Anything I should be aware of when I go to see it?

    GE bottom freezer not cold, clicking noise

    We have a 12 year old GE Profile bottom freezer refrigerator that started to make clicking noise every few minutes. The click is followed by what sounds like the compressor starting up, but within about 10 seconds you hear the same click and the compressor stops. This happens repeatedly. The...

    Just recently can't upload photos

    I haven't had this issue before. Since late last week I can't upload photos. The progress bar goes all the way to 100% and I can see a mini version of the pic, but when I click save I get: Oops! We ran into some problems. A server error occurred. Please try again later. I have tried on two...

    Question about smoking a butt...

    We have guests coming for Thanksgiving and I want to serve pulled pork to them the day before which is of course Wednesday. I can only smoke this weekend, so will the meat be okay if smoked Sunday and refrigerated to eat Wednesday? How about smoking it Saturday? I've never stored pulled...

    HVAC gurus, your input please

    I live in a modest home in coastal South Carolina, the heat/humidity capital of the world. I've been in my home for 19 years. The original HVAC system was 15 years old when I moved in and lasted another 5. Current system was installed 14 years ago and has been nearly trouble-free. We have an...

    Engine gasket sets

    I'm looking at a few websites to order an engine gasket set (need head gasket, valve cover, valve stem seals, intake & exhaust, etc), specifically fjparts.com and sor.com, and want to make certain I'm getting the right set and the best value. My 1969 FJ40 has the F145 (single-barrel) engine, so...

    Not overheating, but overflowing

    In the time since I got my FJ40 and when I got it running, I flushed the cooling system and replaced the hoses, thermostat and radiator cap. Later I discovered my radiator leaking so I replaced it as well. As I began to drive it on longer trips, 25-30 miles, I noticed that coolant would come out...

    How tough to replace the upper door frame

    on my '69 FJ40? Mine got bent pretty badly. It looks like it would be better to swap out the frame instead of an entire door (simpler and cheaper). Has anyone who has done this got any pointers for me? Thanks!

    Clutch issues when hot

    The engine, not the outside temperature. When I start her up dead cold, the shifter moves easily through the gears and shifts into first and reverse with no gear grinding. Driving becomes increasingly difficult when the engine gets up to normal operating temp -- gear grinding when shifting...

    Need tire info for my 1969 FJ40

    The previous owner put Goodyear Wrangler GSAs on it. They still have boatloads of tread, but driving recently I felt some wobble/shake that led me to take a closer look at them. The truck sat for years, which probably led to the dry rot that I found. I had noticed the light cracking on the...

    A year later - update to my '69 FJ40

    Last summer I posted this... https://forum.ih8mud.com/40-55-series-tech/505331-new-fj40s-getting-1969-a.html It took over a year, but "Wanda" is back on the road. :) Here's a tally of what it took (to date): Replaced gas tank Rebuilt carburetor Installed fuel pressure regulator Replaced...

    Heater valve question

    I finally got my '69 FJ40 on the road last week. (Yaay) Within no time the heater was cranking and I was sweating. I found the valve with a little t-handle coming out of the cylinder head. It's pretty stiff -- I managed to turn it a quarter turn clockwise before I thought I'd better stop and...

    Did my '69 FJ40 come with a 1 barrel or 2?

    I've been having issues with the carb on my '69 FJ40, ordered a float and carb kit for it, but think that the parts that came are for a 2 barrel, whereas mine has a 1 barrel, which I thought was stock. What did the '69 come with?

    FJ40 stalls when stopping

    My '69 FJ40 - original engine and carb - stalls when braking to a stop. The carb has been apart and cleaned, and has a new float. It idles great, and drives like a champ. If you stop very gently the engine will continue to run, but anything more than a gentle stop means that once you push the...
