    Charcoal canister for 3fe

    I think there are quite a few waiting for a good replacement for this one. There are various threads where people open them up and replace the charcoal. This all assumes the check valves are ok. Some report using canisters from other vehicles though as far as I can tell, none are a good fit. It...

    Please help! Run out of ideas for strange loss of power

    Could be something as simple as ignition wires, cap or rotor. You could try poking the wires gently with a well insulated stick and see if there is a change.

    Cranking but won't start

    Do you have fuel pressure? Has the truck recently died or has it been dead for years?

    Spark plug wires

    I tend to pick and choose OEM vs aftermarket. As long as you stick with Denso or other reputable brand I wouldn't lose sleep over it.

    Floppy Mirror Syndrome

    I have used hot glue for this. I originally imagined this to be a short term fix but it's worked for years.

    1996 FZJ80 - Cooling system issues after work done?

    I find that I get more heat as the water pump turns faster. More volume through the system perhaps.

    Drive flange hits spindle. '92 FJ80

    To anyone who followed this. A new replacement hub was required to resolve this problem. This problem became so bad that there was insufficient clearance between rotor and caliper to install the inboard pad. What apparently happened was that the inside bearing race spun and moved the disk...

    Stereo Recommendation-FZJ

    Very happy with my Sony/android auto. My model is no longer available but I'd go with whatever has the features you like.

    Trying To Loosen Alt Belt - Alt Wont Move!

    Never-seize is your friend. Especially on these old beasts. You don't want to break parts, many of which are NLA.

    Trying To Loosen Alt Belt - Alt Wont Move!

    Loosen pivot bolt underneath and don't forget to tighten when you put things back together.

    Any idea where this goes? Phantom Vacuum line

    My recollection is that the hard lines are dipicted on the hood vacuum diagram. It looks to me as though your hose connects to a hard line but the picture is a little unclear. By a process of elimination, you should be able to figure out what isn't connected.

    Any idea where this goes? Phantom Vacuum line

    Trace the hose to the hard line then follow it. What does it attach to? Consult the vacuum diagram on the hood and you may figure it out quickly.

    Did this guy put his seal in backwards...?

    Looks right to me. Using a claw hammer is pretty crude.

    Fuel Pump Question

    Went from about 8-12 on avg. Surprised the hell out of me.

    Fuel Pump Question

    I recently replaced mine in my '92 with a Denso from Amazon. Looked exactly like what was in there. Works like a charm. Fuel economy improved significantly which surprised the hell out of me. Job was far easier than I'd imagined. Be sure to have a new tank rubber seal on hand.

    Probably a stupid question

    Don't hesitate replacing a u-joint or two. I had a similar situation and replaced the defective part and away I went. Until the spline is shot, this strikes me as the way to go. You can always replace the driveshaft if nothing else works.

    FJ80 Stranded

    There's more to that story. Get the owner's contact info if you can and do a deal. It's not that difficult if you can get a name.

    Broken Radiator Overflow Nipple (3FE)

    If you're bound and determined to try a fix, I'd look for a bulkhead connector the approximate size. I'd try it. You'll need to use a Dremel or the like to put flats on the inside and outside of the neck. No idea of your chances, but maybe??? Or epoxy? What the hell. It's not worth much this...
