After much debate I’ve decided it’s time to sell my 1985 FJ60.
Purchased at 179k and it’s currently at 183,267k. I’ve had it for almost 4 years now and bought it as a project truck that I would slowly build. Just don’t have the time and money to keep going. I don’t use it like I should and it...
Hello all.
As a long time fellow 3FE owner, I have spent a TON of time going over this engine to make it run its best. There are not many sensors to make it happy, but refreshing the system still takes a while, especially when you have to hunt down not only the sensors, but also the connectors...
Hey everyone,
Just bought my first ever Toyota. It's a 1975 and makes me happy every time I see it. I wanted to get an idea of anything you all recommend in terms of maintenance/upgrades that are really useful/crucial. I plan on Holley EFI swapping, cutting that snorkel length and fixing...

Lots of Sniper builds, but haven't seen many 2GC large bore snipers so here is what I did. Advantage of the 2GC is it looks better than the 2300 in this situation and it fits directly to the stock air cleaner assembly. I designed and machined an adapter between the manifold and 2GC. I still...
In good to fair condition. Last year with solid front axle, first year with EFI. Living in the desert so very minor rust. Runs. Custom front bumper and oversized rims/tires. Was daily driver, not using daily in the last two years. Mechanic says there is a rod knocking but was driving well when I...

Hi,
This might be a bit niche but he goes: I have a small block Chevy in my FJ 60 and I’m putting a sniper EFI kit on that requires an electric fuel pump and a return line to the fuel tank. My question:
Can I mount a electronic fuel pump on the feed line close to the tank and use the existing...
This pass weekend, I was doing some compression tests trying to diagnose a possible head gasket leak and did a double-take on the state of my relatively new spark plugs. FJ62 is pretty rough from a cold start, especially under 1500 RPM. There's an occasional popping sound but disappears as it...
I have a 2FE converted FJ60. I have been having the hesitation/stutter/and fuel starvation from hell... the truck will run pretty good until about 10-20 minutes of driving. That’s when the hesitation/lack of throttle response/bogging/fuel starvation starts happening most frequently.

Hi all, having a bit of a rough time and thought I'd reach out with some of my experiences.
Truck ran great, no problems starting, no problems overheating. Stopped for groceries and 10 minutes ater she just would not start. Messed around bleeding injectors for some time before towing home...
Hey guys, so I have read through Jon's EFI diagnostic and am currently stumped as to where I should go next with my current issue.
After wheeling for about 2 hours while going up an incline my engine began to sputter and then began acting normally and let me continue moving forward. Shortly...
About 2 years ago I got word that there was an abandoned FJ-55 in North Mississippi that had a low mileage 2F and drivetrain that needed to be rescued.
At the time, my FJ-60 was running on 5 cylinders at best, but it was becoming my favorite Cruiser in the herd and it needed a motor.
This...

Hello all,
I have a 2 barrel FiTech EFI system to install; it uses a GM type temperature sensor. I am desmogged and would like to use one of the two temperature sensor ports in the block.
I have an OEM temp sensor bushing that I’m considering retapping the threads to fit the GM sensor but am...
This is my first build thread so give me a break on how bad this is going to be...
Most people don't want to read so...Yes, the Holley 2300 2bbl Sniper is awesome (200 plus miles on setup), yes it works on a 2f, yes its a straight forward install, yes I am running stock dizzy and figured out...
