12ht

Hello all, I've just installed a 12HT in my FJ40 to replace the failed 2H. It was supposed to be a fairly straight forward swap. Generally everything went well. At the end of the 125 mile shake-down drive, I noticed a slight pop... pop... pop. This is confirmed to be an exhaust leak at the...

Part 90923-02079 in an unopened package. I bought this from another Mud member a few weeks ago hoping that it would fit my 2B. It didn't, and appears to just be too short. ToyoDIY shows it fits the 2H and 12HT. It was also previously advertised as working on a B, 3B, and 13BT, but I cannot...

So, my e-brake light is turning on randomly. At first I thought it was just the electrical circuit issue causing the light to indicate that the e-brake was still engaged although it was not. But some research how now shown me that the e-brake light indicates the e-brake being engaged, brake...

Hey guys— first post here. I recently joined the LC community with a new old HJ61 VX automatic. I know very little about engines and repair and decided to dive into the deep end with the HJ. I've been having smoke issues and luckily there's a guy that works on old/JDM LC's here that I was able...

Hi Guys Absolute newbie to posting on Ih8mud but have been leeching off of your excellent forums for the past few years now. Six months ago, I finally bought a 89 Sahara FJ62G converted to a HJ with a 12HT diesel swap(previous owner's handiwork). The problem I am having is that the...

This post may illicit a chuckle from some because it's likely very easy but I've simply never done it (and perhaps it belongs in the diesel/24v section, but I get more replies here. I took my cruiser out today and noticed a strong diesel smell so I went home and upon further inspection I...

1989 cruiser 12HT h55 339,000km Is there a recommended cleaner or additive to clean this old girl up? I get one puff of black smoke at start up and after that she's pretty clean. Obviously it's an oil burner so you still smell diesel when behind it and I feel a bit smoky after I've been riding...

So, I have a 1989 HJ61. Right side drive. Previous owner had welded a snapped shift lever on. It re-snapped. I got a replacement lever from Spectre Off-Road in the hopes it would be compatible. It is not (see photo). My next best thought is to cut off the new lever and weld on to the old...

Hi all, I just bought an old 24v HJ61 that has supposedly 200k kms on the clock. I say supposedly as the speedometer looks like it had been disconnected and wound back perhaps, I pulled the dash to fix a gauge when I first got it and the speedometer connecting cable popped right out!. Is there...

hey fellas, wondering what people have done the their 12HT's to gain more power, whether you have done insane stuff to get ridiculous power or if you have tried to play it safe and get good power as well as engine life, just show me what youve done to your 12HT! im personally thinking of doing...

Ugh! I am stuck and need some help. I have searched for several hours through the forum but can't locate an answer. But I know that many people have solved this and someone can quickly provide a direct answer. Here is my situation: I have a 1989 US-version FJ62. Transplanted a 12HT into the...

So, here I am: Cruising westbound along Hwy 412 just 15 miles east of Tulsa, Oklahoma and I get this funny burning oil smell. About 30 seconds later, it starts making nose and smoking a fair bit. Put the clutch in and coast over to the side of the road. The engine is no longer running when I...

I feel silly asking, but I have a rare bird here. It's a 1989 JDM HJ61 (rhd) with a five speed and 12-ht diesel. It has a 4wd button at my left knee and the light engages as well as a lever 2H-N-4LO on the floor. Up front it has Asisn locking hubs. First thing first; I thought it was a...

I am about to embark on the “mechanical” side of my build and knowing nothing about motors I was hoping some members could point me in the right direction to get the most out of my $$. I purchased a 1989 12HT 24V motor from a HJ61 with 235k , I saw a video of it running a couple of days before...

I'm not very knowledgeable about these things and would like to know a lot more as I look into buying an HJ47. I would like to put a 12HT engine in one after I buy the HJ47 because I want something with a little more speed than a 2H for highway driving (I'd like to use it more as a daily driver...

Howdy forumers, What an invaluable resource this site is. I've only been poking around for a couple of days and already learned a lot. I've been a lover of the 60 series LandCruiser since I was in elementary school and now that I'm mostly grown up, now it's time to get one. (Stop reading...
