coolant

Looking for a coolant reservoir for my 1977 FJ40. Mine is cracked and leaking bad. Duck tape can't hold it.....hahahha Hope all is well, -Victor

For my second question of the day. I removed my radiator cap and there was a strange looking sediment mixed in with the coolant. With some of it floating on the surface. I am guessing that after a complete overhaul of the cooling system from all hoses to the radiator.. there was something...

Hey all. I've been getting a bit of oil in my coolant system for a few months now. Had it flushed. Now there's more. Anyone seen this or had any experience with it? Kinda freaking me out...

I have a 1994 fzj80. Runs perfect and is 100% baselined. Even by mud standards. Coolant system is all OEM and new inducing radiator, hoses, water pump, thermostat, heater valve, OEM black fan clutch with 10,000 oil. Also complete top end rebuild with all new OEM gaskets and head gasket and a...

I replaced my radiator with a Denso unit from Rock Auto this last week. The foam did not remove cleanly from the original so I'm looking for a suitable replacement. I don't know what temps to expect, so I'm not sure if Home Depot foam will work. I tried McMaster Carr and Grainger with poor...

my wife and I are getting ready for a road trip in the 91. We are headed to Colorado for a few weeks right after Christmas. I have been doing a lot of research and as much PM as I can before we leave. Something that people keel telling me is I NEED to make sure my coolant is winterized. My...

I have gremlins in my '85 Toyota Land Cruiser fj60. Had radiator leaking so pulled it and had a shop run through it to make it like new. Changed out the thermostat (and the gasket that doesn't want to sit on top) and have noticed it is not heating up. Checked (took it apart and put it back...

I am sorry if I'm posting this in the wrong location. I recently acquired a 1994 Land Cruiser and I need to add some coolant. I have read the post about Toyota Red vs. the green coolant and know not to mix the two. I have green coolant right now and would just like to add some more. Every...

I was tired of dumping coolant everywhere when I drained my 2F block or radiator...cheap trick follows: I installed an aftermarket radiator in my FJ40 that does not have the extension tube on the radiator drain like the OEM (to carry the coolant past the radiator frame), so it's very messy to...

Last evening I was outside checking the oil level and looking making sure I had enough coolant, while looking into the top of the radiator I notice tiny foil like shavings in my coolant, upon closer inspection I noticed the coolant had little swirls of what seem to be very fine glitter. I...

So I've had a slow coolant leak for a while. I finally had time to look and discovered this. Have I found my leak?

Changed thermostat, petcock, and coolant two weeks ago. ( Didn't burp). No problem at all. Changed oil this weekend, drove all weekend. Let her rest Monday and Tuesday, go outside to put my mirrors back on her and notice a dinner plate size of fluid on the ground. After inspection I noticed it...

After searching, ive found most of the info I need, but there's one thing I've yet to see. In my 74, the po put a desmogged 78 2f engine in. The heater lines are disconnected though, it was just used as a farm truck. I bought new lines, and the pipe in the coolant return line, which was missing...

Has anyone used a radiator flush solution? I think my radiator has some sludge build up as I keep getting some very small amounts of gray residue up by my rad cap and in my reservoir. Anyway, I added this to my radiator that is partially drained since I am in the middle of my My overdue PM...

So I recently bought a 2000 Lexus LX470 with 225,000 miles and bought it for $6300 knowing that it would not be perfect. The first thing I noticed was that the front sat a little lower than the back. More than normal. I'm not unfamiliar with these cars entirely. I was told that the...

Hello all, this is my first thread, so thanks in advance for any help on this. 2003 2UZ-FE 100 series First, when I check (cold) my coolant level at the min/max reservoir, it shows about an inch below full. When I took my radiator cap off and looked in there, I could see the fins but no...
