    Tuning a 3B

    Is there a comprehensive guide on tuning a 3B for maximum performance? I’ve been reading these forums for years and read about turbos and intercoolers and such. It seems like most people just swap up to 15bt’s instead of trying to tune a 3B. I understand that but for someone like me that has a...

    bj62 Alternator?

    Okay here's my puzzle: 1989 62 series with a 3B, 12V system. I had a sh*t terminal connector on my main battery, and on the occasional start, always after glowing, the power would shut off completely when I turned the key. I would tighten or wiggle the terminal, and she'd start right up. I...

    3B Inline fuel filter

    Has anyone had success at adding an additional (second) inline fuel filter, prior to the injection system and factory canister filter? If so, what brand/kind? I'd like to add one that was clear, or had a view port, but had doubts about the pressures involved. I have a standard 3B and anything...

    Toyota 3B inline fuel lines

    Gday, So recently I did a engine swap for my 3b and my previous one was well, not good. Anyhow My old 3B had a rotary fuel pump so the fuel lines it had were just hoses and hose clamps. Where as now my new (to me) 3B has an Inline fuel pump but the fuel lines have Banjo bolts which along with...

    What is the best shop to rebuild a 3B?

    3b engine blow-by, how much is too much

    Hey I’m just wondering what is an acceptable amount of air to be blowing out of the oil filler hole. This is a 3b diesel. Mine seems to have a fair bit, but it’s done it since I bought it 6 years ago. I want to say it feels like a hair dryer but it’s not nearly that high, maybe like a heat gun...
