Recently put a new motor with 140k miles on it. It was making a ticking noise so I took the oil cap off while running. Once the cap was loose the motor almost died then idled up for a second. When I put the can back out goes back to normal and will do that every time I remove the cap. I've never...
Selling the 80, sadly.
it's been my daily so I've kept up on maintenance and fixed a ton of neglect over the past 2 or so years. Running super well. Willing to negotiate on price. Located in north Portland, OR
Main issues include the unresolved passenger windows not functioning. Sunroof and...
Bought my 80 in Nevada. Has all emissions accessories.
Problem is fast idle and check light. Don’t know how to pull codes.
Replaced torn air cleaner hose, replaced a few vacuum lines that were torn, replaced o2 sensors. Cleaned aic, checked afm, noticeable change from rough to smooth idle...
Hey guys, I blew my 3fe’s head gasket a while back, and finally got the head off to the machine shop a few days ago. They found 2 large cracks which they deemed unrepairable, so I’m looking for a new head now, hopefully one that can be vouched for or is cheap enough to gamble on. This truck is...

Hey guys!
Long story short, my '91 Land cruiser overheated 3 hours away from my home, left it with a random mechanic and he stole my money, opened the engine and never fix s***, at the end he gave my car back with parts missing... :( a real nightmare.
This was before the stupid pandemic, now...
I bought my ‘91 for $2500 a few years ago, running decent but in need of a lot of love. I’m very much an newb when it comes to working on cars, so as I’ve been addressing problems on this rig, I’ve done the easy stuff (bushings, suspension, general maintenance) and had my good mechanic buddy...
Hello everyone I am really hoping you can help me find what this weird problem I'm having is.
When I'm driving on rough terrain and drive over something rough or even hit a pothole sometimes my RPMometer drops for a split second and my engine light (which is on cause o2 sensor I have to...
Hi All,
Selling my LC as I just don't drive it enough to justify hanging on to it (hubby has a built out tacoma so it wasn't worth building this one into an off-road/camping rig) I figure it can go to someone who will love it as much as I did, and either keep it a super solid daily driver or...
Here’s my latest project a 1988 FJ62 Toyota Landcruiser (Miles 207k).
(Video of the finished)
I own several of these trucks/parts for them and bought this truck to bring it back to life. I’ve put a lot of time into making it look a lot better to a point someone could really enjoy it. I’ve...
It seems almost every thread regarding thermostat replacement on the 3FE is accompanied by a lengthy saga of extracting broken bolts. I've got a handful of bolt extractions under my belt now, and I would like to avoid it here if at all possible.
I've got a thermostat in hand and have been...

$30 shipped anywhere in the 48. My mistake is your gain. Never run, my truck uses the later belts.
1991 FJ80 with 245,000mi. My issue was present before and after I recently did my injectors. When idling for a minute or 2 the engine starts to misfire, lope, and generally "run rough". A quick press on the go pedal will make the engine run correct for about 5 seconds then run poorly again after...
I have a bunch of parts for the smog / emissions on a 88 FJ62 with a 3FE motor. Not trying to make a killing, so if you need anything make me an offer. All items worked when I desmogged the motor. Buyer pays actual shipping. See list below and pictures. Will sell individually, are as a...
Been on this forum for not so long now but its been my go to for any/all questions i have. On more than a few the posts you've made were the most insightful/helpful; answered the questions i didnt even know to ask.
Just got my very first baby a 91' 80. Since I could remember its been my...
I did a thing. A friend was incredibly patient and enabled the heck out of me. Together, we will do many dumb things together right now and in the future. I've been pretty quiet about it, but it's time for the build to begin.

Hey everyone,
I have a few random questions to ask the group.
1. Can anyone recommend a shop for getting some rusty rockers taken care of in the Charlotte area?
2. It's time to rebuild my front (and probably rear) axles. I've looked at Cruiser outfitters for a rebuild kit. Any recommended...
I am going to replace my Cold start injector time switch and most likely my water temp sensor while I'm at it. Would like some advice on how to do this though, because it looks to me like its connected directly to the coolant supply. How do I take these out without spilling coolant all over the...
