I am wondering if anyone can recommend a shop in the area to do a leak test on my AC. It’s getting hot here and would be nice to have it working. It currently works, just blows hot air.
It’s something I would like to tackle myself, just need to know where I stand. My condenser looks pretty rough.

Clutch Issues... Help Needed... 1987 HJ61 - https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/clutch-issues-help-needed-1987-hj61.1311156/
Just got back from vacation tonight and crawled under her. I don't see a cover under the bell housing although it does look like a bolt is missing. I will try again to look in daylight tomorrow...
Additionally, the slave arm was tight, I couldn't move the arm under the rubber boot with my...
Adding this photo from the manual since it doesn’t mention anything about a clutch cover in the “inspect clutch disk” remedy. I’ll look again and also look to see if the slave rod is tight or not. Thank you. I will post back when I am able to get to my truck.
Any places I should look first? From what I have seen online it’s possible oil is leaking from back of engine onto clutch plate which can cause it to slip. Shouldnt I have an inspection port somewhere?
I wanted to post here before I put it in the 60 section cause I may be looking for recommendations in VA…
In the last 2 weeks or so I have noticed my truck pulling slow up hills. Engine revs up fine but really long time to engage and pull when releasing the clutch. Started with only 4th gear...
I have a used fj60 tank I would be willing to trade for anything 60 related (used tires, rims etc). Tank holds fuel, just needs a good cleaning inside. Bottom tank pictured, doesn't have the rubber inlet or fuel pickup anymore.
Let me know what ya'll have.
@OTRAMM is highly regarded here, but he is out in bealton VA.
Sounds like you have a parasitic drain somewhere. I know in my truck I have to remove the face plate of my radio when I park it otherwise it will die in a couple days as well, as it is wired to alway be on even if the key is off.
U fortunately I am working nights this week. I am also out of town during your Valentine’s Day trip next month. I will have to see when the next time my schedule lines up with yalls. I’ll probably have a kid or two with me.
Well glad to say I had my injectors rebuilt with new ones on order from United Diesel in Alexandria. 2 were stuck open. Pop the cleaned ones back in so I am back on the road 👍

Thanks! Even though it looks like its only a 12 min drive, I am playing single dad while the wife works tomorrow. Not sure about all my minions running around.
We really like the area, so far so good! Happy wife happy life as they say...
Hello everyone,
Not sure if this is where to post this, but I am new to the area, just PCSed to Springfield, VA from Japan. Looking to find time to meet some like minded cruiser folk once the family gets settled in the new house. Currently working through fuel issues on my hj61, but once I...
