    Twins in McCall, ID

    I have a '60, but saw these two beauties along Highway 55, just south of McCall. I only took 1 picture because the family was waiting in the car. To make it tech talk: can anyone tell which year they are? The one on my left in the pic had a much nicer interior, including the full rubber...

    I feel like a noob asking this question, but I just want to be clear: - relatively new TREs (within the last two years) - recently added OME lift and 33 inch tires. - steering then went really sloppy on me - so checked driveline, and seeing what looks like too much play in the ball joint in...

    Premature failure of ABV?

    Anyone have any thoughts or suggestions on what would cause a relatively new (less than 3 yrs old) ABV to fail? I saw this below in a post (after searching "ABV fail") from 60wag: Re:FJ60 emisions Make sure the air injection system is working correctly. The ABV three...

    Vacuum away from manifold?

    What vacuum readings should I be getting at various points along the vacuum system? For example, if I took a reading at the diaphragms near the distributor? Here's why I ask: failed smog miserably. Took it to local smog shop under the CAP program. Guy does not have the emissions manual -...

    Accelerator Linkage Question

    Should the chain thingy that connects to the long accelerator linkage coming out of the firewall hang somewhat slack? Or is it supposed to be completely taut? I am taking some of the parts of the linkage apart to clean/inspect. (Every now and then I have to pull the gas pedal up with my toe...

    real time question: bubbles in oil?

    Car was idling really rough. 650 then drops to 550 then back up. seemed like loss of some power. Pulled over, checked oil - bubbles. Drove another half mile and check engine light came on. Thoughts or suggestions? (I'm in Idaho, 20 deg outside, if that matters).

    Mounting new tires - ideas?

    I found some very slightly used BFG AT 33s. I plan on buying them, but the local Big-O wants $25 PER TIRE to mount them (it's only $10 per tire if you buy tires at Big-O). That's one quarter of what it's going to cost to buy the tires! Any thoughts? Is there a better (well, cheaper) way to...
