I love this truck and I'm so frustrated now after literally several years of trying to resolve this issue. FJ60 1981 2F.
The engine was rebuilt 2+ years ago by Marlin of Marlin Crawlers. Very meticulous. It was replaced in the car by a guy who is less meticulous... but supposedly with new water...
Forgive me because Im asking for a friend and only have limited info, and dont have the vehicle here to inspect...
-Radiator was leaking so he took it to a Japanese specialist and they replaced the radiator, hoses, thermostat and cap
(Note: He has spent a large amount of money with them...
I just did an engine swap same 2uz on my 100 series and I replaced the water pump and fan clutch when I did it ~2,500 miles ago and I just replaced my power steering pump and after I did that I cranked it and popped the hood to make sure everything was good, and I realized there was a slight...
Hi all, first post but been lurking a while. Trying to deal with some overheating issues on my Prado and have identified that the fan clutch is slipping at high RPMs. It’s an Aisin blue hub. I replaced the silicone oil with 10,000cst fluid but made no mechanical modification to it. It helped...
Finding a crack in my radiator that only appeared under pressure and caused my truck getting hot has lead me down a bit of a rabbit hole. In looking up things related to the cooling system I found that a bunch of the 80 and 100 series guys (especially in hot and humid areas) are opening up their...
The AC in our 97 80 Series was underperforming in the recent Texas heat wave. I couldn't tell what brand or version of fan clutch was in the vehicle, but it looked very old, so I put in a brand new Aisin blue fan clutch. A week later and still not happy with the AC condenser performance, I...
Looking for an OEM skid plate in case you upgraded your rig to better armor / know someone who posted a new armor upgrade on the forum, point them to me please! I'll be down in the Springs on Sept 9th and often up near Ft Collins.
My rig never came with one, idk what happened to it. Want cat...
I have 97 LX450 with 292K. I believe I have an original Fan Clutch. My mechanic told me that I need to replace it because because when I am at the stop sign or waiting for the light to change my AC is not cooling enough. It doesn't make any noises, truck never overheats. Question, is my...
I was doing some searching found a few fan clutches out of 93-94 vehicles, but wanted to see if anyone had the “black hub” model number or part number to reference? There is a parts truck here locally wanted to make sure it was the right one n reference photos. Or if any has the aussy model...
So after clearing up all the codes, I’m in upgrade mode, looking to swap the fan clutch, I get great AC up to like 95 degree OAT, it was 91 on my way home this morning from work n even in the Costco line for fuel stayed really cold, it’s really like 95 n above, it’s been 105 lately, so at lights...
So I recently blew the radiator in my 97 Landcruiser and am looking to take the time to do my best and "bulletproof" the cooling system as I've read its a bit of an issue on the 80. What are some solutions everyone else has found work best and what brand radiator has seen the best numbers and...
I have a 2006 HDJ-100 with a 4.2 IHDT-fte that does not have an A/C elect. fan due to the intercooler position. My A/C is lethargic at best , as I live in the tropics this is quite annoying. The A/C system is all redone and fully charged. My fan clutch, seems to be ok, It only spins about a half...
Hi All,
My mechanic told me that my fan clutch is not working so well now. So he recommends that I get the part and then he can fit it in for me.
I was searching around and I found the parts on mcgeorge. There seems to be two parts that look similar but have different part numbers. I was...
Hey everyone,
So, my engine fan on my 1998 is loud... like a jet engine loud. Engine temps are normal and the ac is super cold. I’m in the mountains so it’s not hot out. There is plenty of coolant. The timing belt and water pump were replaced at 154,000 miles... there are 190,00 on the rig now...
Hi,
Any of you do the fan clutch mod on a hundred? Worth it? Advisable?
Our LX470 engine coolant temp climbs above 200F even above 205F if I let it, idling in a line of cars at the border. I am not happy that the engine can't cool itself to optimal temp when idling. Admittedly it's sitting...
I have been quite unhappy with the cooling performance of the tiny 3B/13B-T fan clutch and fan for quite some time.
As such, I did some research. I picked up a 1HZ/1HD-T fan clutch as well as the appropriate fan assembly. This fan clutch is the black-base FC.
As you can see, it...
Hey guys n gals,
I am updating my cooling system. My '89 62 heats up when idling with the AC blasting and also heats up when flogging it on the hwy. NO redline overheating but it would most likely go there if I wasn't paying attention and just walked away. The cooling system has always...
What is the best way to bolt the cooling fan/clutch assembly back onto the water pump pulley ?
I had removed the radiator, fan & shroud, all the belts and coolant hoses in an effort to clean and tighten up some things on the front of my 2F engine.
I had put all the belts on (alt/PS, AC...
I need some advice. After my mechanic installed the new head gasket, the truck is now overheating and has very low power.
This is everything that was done:
Installed new head gasket, planed and rebuilt the head, installed new timing chain tensioner, guide and follower, all new head bolts
I...
