    Exhaust leak and strange warmup stuff

    I've had an exhaust leak forever. It makes a fairly loud ticking sound somewhere down low on the header. It comes from the #3 header pipe. Ok with that said, since its been cold it takes quite awhile for the ticking to start. I'm pretty sure it must be missing firing on that cylinder...

    Bestop bikini problem?

    I've got a hand me down Bestop bikini that doesn't seem to fit. The distance between my windshield and the roll bar is about 42 inches and the top is only about 41 inches total. That leaves the fabric about 2-3 inches from even getting to the roll bar. This sounds like any rain that may fall...

    Choke operation

    I have a dumb choke question. When the choke is on, is it by design that my RPM's go up quite a bit? I'll sit at a red light and my ol' F is rattling away at probably 1500 RPM. Is that something I should be adjusting on the carb, or is the choke supposed to do that by nature?

    need a stock roll bar pic

    I need a picture of where a stock roll bar mounts to the tub. Maybe one from inside the wheel well too, if possible. Thanks in advance. :cheers:

    I fought the carb (and the law) and..... I WON!

    Today is a great day for me, I passed emissions! I am no longer a gross polluter. :grinpimp: It only took 3 carb rebuilds, a handful of carb jets, 2 fuel pumps, much swearing and many many stupid questions on this board. It turned out the the PO redrilled his main jets, to compensate for...

    Carb jets (help please)

    So I'm still fighting the emissions gods... I've done a home rebuild on my carb (OEM 71 vintage), and it has been an amazing learning experience. With that said, and after mutiple re-dos I still can't pass emmissions. I've found a strange abnormality with my carb. When rebuilding I...

    carb float needle valve

    I think this is called the needle valve. When I went to adjust my float, it sprung across the garage before I got a look at it. Is this picture correct? The flat end goes out (down), and not the pointy side? Are there only 4 pieces, the body, the spring, the needle, and the brass spring...

    strange internal carb leak?

    So I'm trying to pass emissions, I did the regular stuff and got my numbers pretty close. Since the end of the month, and my deadline, is coming up I went to a local mechanic today. I'm trying to solve a running rich problem which causes high CO at speed. At first he thinks my fuel pump is...

    Emissions help

    I know this comes up all the time. I read through many great posts about fixes to pass emissions tests, but didn't see one with my exact problem. I've got pretty low numbers on all the different tests except for CO at 2500 RPM. I was able to fiddle with the idle mixture screw which made my...

    Bench seat headrests?

    Did any FJ40 bench seats ever have headrests? Mine has the slots for headrests and the internal hardware, but I haven't seen any others like that. Is this something somebody threw in there when they had the seats reappolstered?

    FJ40 OEM shocks

    I'm replacing the shocks on my '71 FJ40. It is mostly stock, and has no lift. I would like to replace my shocks with an OEM model, does anyone know who makes them? I was looking through previous threads on similar topics and found a reference to an OEM shock being made by Tokico. I called...

    Heater resistor

    Hi all, The heater blower in my '71 FJ40 only has one speed. It sounds like this is a problem with the blower resistor. Anyone know where to get one of these, or a suitable replacement? Thx.
