Anyone used torque plates on bore or hone jobs for their engine? Did you use aluminum or steel plate and what are your thoughts? Did you take multiple before and after bore measurements, and if so, how did it turn out? I am doing a diagnostic teardown and blueprint job. 1FZ engine building and...

I live in Myanmar and drive a 1980 BJ44. Some of the places I go are quite challenging with real bad or no roads, driving on shallow river beds and pretty steep climbs. I sometimes feel that I could do with more engine power. My car is a 1980 BJ44 with original 1B diesel engine. I have upgraded...

Hi, I am new here and have a question. I picked up a 1974 FJ40 last summer and it came with a hole rusted out 1977 for parts. The engine was not in it but I have it. Now my 1974 should have a F code engine and it has a 3 speed tranny, I would think the other engine would be a 2F engine but the...

No, not a second battery - and not just moving the primary to the typical secondary spot - but actually located the primary battery somewhere else in the engine bay? Just wondering what people came up with. My tire looks like it might get into that area when stuffed and turned

I'm trying to resolve a myriad of braking problems with my '86 which has been holding me back from driving it more. One item I can't figure out, is that when I pump the brakes at idle, the engine RPM's drop to ~400, nearly stalling the engine. Any ideas what might be going on?

Hey all - Finishing up fixing my V8 conversion (Gen 1 283 SBC) that my PO had butchered. I stick mostly to the @Downey conversion manual, but I've run into an (anticipated) issue clearing my power steering pump. Common wisdom says to mount the engine 1-1.5" toward the driver's side to allow...

A lot of guys remove the engine cover, why? I dont see a lot of reason either way just thought I would see what guys have to say.

I have a higher mileage good runner. Exact mileage is unknown though. No leaks. Came from a 94. $800 palleted/strapped.

We are looking at installing a Ford 302 from an older Ford Bronco into a 1980 FJ40 that has no engine. Question is there a model 302 engine we should be looking for? We have a 1973 302 motor that is being rebuilt. Also what is a good adapter for a 302 to a 4 speed stock FJ40? Thanks

Evening all! I am in need of a functional temp gauge for a 73 F engine. The rest of my gauge cluster works, but the temp gauge does not work. Thank you in advance! Dave

Hi. We're looking for a replacement 1FZ-FE engine for our '97 FZJ80. Preferably rebuilt or low mileage, but beggars can't be choosers I guess. My boyfriend blew up the engine, so we need to replace it ASAP. (He said he was sorry.) It actually just seems to be a severe rod-knock. We're around...

Hey all... Well I was not finding these on line easily, as everyone seemed to be "out of stock" with no estimate time of getting them back in. So, I decided to have my buddy (Sign Co. owner here in Bakersfield, Ca) make them for me. 3.3 MB high resolution and I thought they turned out...

HI All I was driving along a motorway at 80kph on Friday when the car stopped accelerating... it just revved and nothing more. I pulled over, stopped the car, put it in 1st gear... the same thing. The engine revved, but no momentum. Same in 2nd, 3rd, 4th and Reverse. Tried in 2H and 2L and...

Im doing a V8 + NV4500 swap on my 87 FJ60, I finally got the motor, trans, Tcase, and drivelines out. Im doing this swap with no prior experience so questions constantly come up that need answering. My questions right now are: (please excuse me if any of the questions sound dumb) 1.) Do I...
