    How far can the FZJ80 go without oil?

    No worries. I was poking back at you. I don't believe to much in additives. Good advice on the oil filters. I'd read that the cheap filters the lube places use are inferior to the OEM filters.

    How far can the FZJ80 go without oil?

    Tax payer money at work. What a waste! (The Land Cruiser that is)

    Guess I should have bought a Camry.

    How far can the FZJ80 go without oil?

    I'm not a techno guy and you lost me at the "460 partially swapped in" but I'm guessing my cruiser engine wouldn't go 6k miles without oil.

    Well said. No matter what, it's always about the maintenance. (And a good mechanic)!

    How far can the FZJ80 go without oil?

    Your right about the fishy part. I've been scratching my head about that ever since. Lack of oil could have been exaggerated. (Mechanic listed as 7 qts low). Daughter said it ran great until it seized and started up again about 15 mins later. I have no idea how far she'd traveled after she left...

    Thanks to all for your input! Since this happened, I constantly ask my 4 girls if they've serviced/changed oil in their cars/SUVs. They're all gathering up here next week and I will be holding a "check your fluids" class with mandatory attendance.

    So I guess that means bullet proof is not the same as oil less proof. :(

    I think we can rule out the eco warrior. Not many of those in central FL. But the PO'd someone is an interesting angle. 🤔

    How far can the FZJ80 go without oil?

    #3 is pretty sharp. No idiot light ever illuminated as I know of. The invoice on the engine swap included an oil level sensor but don't know if that was due to the lack of oil.

    Great advice George! I did show them how to change a tire and about brake tab squeal but absolutely failed on teaching the "check the fluid course".

    How far can the FZJ80 go without oil?

    I've always been curious about this. I figure you cruiser heads will have the answers. The details are as follows: -I purchased the 1997 LC in 2002. In 2015 daughter #3 was using it as a daily driver. We live in Mobile, AL and she was attending college in Tallahassee FL which is about 240 miles...
