I've had a weird issue with my 80 since I bought it 1 year ago.
It will occasionally not start but crank fine. Usually after 2-5 minutes of trying it will eventually start. However, last week on a camping trip, it would refuse to start at all.
If I leave it for between 3 days to 1 month...
Hi guys,
Recently removed the LPG system on the car so it currently runs straight petrol. Since then, I've noticed when it is under 14C (57F), the car takes a lot of cranking to eventually turn on. The colder it is, the longer I have to crank. Some cases when it's really cold, I crank 3 lots of...
Hi guys,
Recently after I removed the LPG system from the car to run straight petrol, it takes a bit longer to start. If I leave the car for a prolonged period of time (12+ hours), the car does not start, but cranks. After 5 seconds of cranking, I stop cranking, wait 5 seconds then crank again...
Hi guys,
I have a cooling issue with my 3B in my BJ42.
The issue occurs be the ambient temperature 70F or 95F.
Upon first start, the engine will happily idle at ~185F. However, as soon as I hit the highway doing 60mph, it’ll sit at 230F.
Things I’ve noticed:
40mph => 200F
50mph => 210F...
Hi guys,
Trying to put a 1HZ into my HJ47 using the 2H loom.
Trying to wire up my 1HZ, the terminal in the photo, what does that connect to?
Can someone also double check I haven't missed any wiring to the engine? Want to remove anything I don't need from the HJ47 loom (EDIC, Glow Plug...
Hi guys,
My gearbox in my 42 is crunching and transfer-case leaks quite bad..
I have access to a gearbox and transfer case out of a BJ73.
Was wondering if both 5 speed gearboxes are interchangeable? Will there be any mods I need to consider?
Moreover, assuming the transfer case in the BJ73...
Hi guys,
Just bought a HJ61 with the factory rear air con unit.
The front seems to work fine, nice and cold.
The rear however, blows air, although it is not cold.
Where do I begin with the diagnosis?
Thanks
Hi guys,
Does anyone know if the OME Nitrocharger Sport Shocks will cope with a 4" lift?
I plan on running OME suspension, 2.5" lift with a shackle lift.
Thanks
Hi guys,
I just installed power steering into my BJ42, everything went well except that the fan is now hitting the power steering idler pulley. At the moment, I have a fixed fan.
I can't seem to find a suitable spacer (from Australia), so I was thinking if it was possible to get a viscous...

Hi guys,
I have a 3B in a BJ42, I bought the car without a EDIC in it and have been using the manual shut off.
Anyway, I now have a EDIC motor and noticed there is a piece of tube running off it. Is this an oil line? If so, does it attach to the engine block?

Looking to sell this to purchase a BJ42, don’t have the room for both.
If you have a BJ42 up for grabs, happy to swap with cash adjustment at either side where necessary.

Got a 74 FJ40 with a busted 4 speed and transfer case running a chevy 350.
I am aware that there are differnt types of gearboxes around, H41, H42 and H55 along with a single or split transfer case.
