    Find TDC (Rotate crankshaft) with Radiator Installed.

    I need to adjust the valves so I need to find TDC, but the engine is fully assembled with radiator and shroud installed. How do I rotate the crankshaft to find TDC with the radiator and fan shroud installed? Is it possible to do that? If so, how?

    What are the heat riser bolt sizes? I'm looking for the ones that connect the intake manifold to the exhaust manifold. I only have 2 so need to get the other 3. The 2 I have are the long ones that go through the intake manifold. I need the other one that goes through the intake, then the two...

    Brakes Soft

    For the last month of occasional driving, I have noticed the brake pedal works initially, but then with my foot on it at a stop, the pedal slowly moves closer and closer to the floor. I have to "pump it up" to keep pressure in there. What could be causing this? Could there be not enough brake...

    Synthetic Oil

    I'm thinking of changing over to synthetic oil for my FJ40. Would that just be a waste of money as it would probably leak more. I haven't replaced any seals or gaskets and it already leaks on conventional oil. Would it really leak that much more with synthetic? Thanks, Rob 1976 FJ40

    I would like to remove my MAF 6-1 headers and reinstall the original exhaust manifold. To do this, I need a down tube to connect with the exhaust system. Where would I be able to get a down tube? Are there aftermarket ones or do I need to find a used one? Thanks, Rob 1976 FJ40

    Major Gasket Leaks

    After driving around about 3-5 miles yesterday, when I got home I notice a LOT of oil was leaking from the engine. Upon further investigation, it looks as if the leak is from the valve cover gasket and/or side cover gasket. With the engine running the oil was kind of spewing out. Has anyone...

    4WD Front Hubs Rebuild

    My front 4wd hubs are very difficult to turn to put the FJ40 into 4WD so I was wondering how to make them turn easier. Would I have to rebuild them? If so, how easy/difficult is that to do? Also, would I need to replace some gaskets?

    Vent Holds Water

    A few weeks ago, I noticed that the vent between the hood and windshield holds water after it rains. Is there a drain I can check for? Yesterday, I believe the vent has started to drip water onto my feet when I am driving. Any suggestions?

    I plan on changing my Rochester carburetor to a stock 1975 carburetor and then changing from the Man-A-Fre 6-1 headers back to stock intake/exhaust manifolds. Are there any suggestions or comments about what to worry about when doing this? Or reasons why I shouldn’t do this? Thanks, Rob 1976...

    Carb Identification

    I have a spare aisin carb from a later FJ40 (maybe 1982 or so). Would I be able to rebuild the aisin one and replace the Rochester carb? I am worried about whether it is possible to put a newer carb on the older truck. I am worried about if the linkages and “gadgets” will connect to my rig...
