fuel

So my brake issue is solved (thanks to the folks in that other thread) and as I was putting the rear tires back on I smelled a strong gas smell... sure enough, the fuel pick up hard lines at the top of the tank are all rotted out. (I dropped the tank already to verify) Anyone have one they can...

(Nevermind, figured out the problem.) cheers, Jim

I need the 13mm nut that attaches the fuel line to the fuel tank. This would be found on 72' and older 40/45's.

So I was trying to cure a permanent has smell from my cruiser (not to mention abysmal gas mileage) and I came across this cracked line heading to the fuel pump. Any one know a part number or where I can get a new one?

I just noticed the low fuel warning lights up even the gauge needle isn't pointing to the last tick mark. It has never happened before. Usually the light goes on at the last tick or slightly below. Any ideas?

I need some help. I've read over all the forums and I'm still a bit stuck. My fuel gauge always shows empty. Following the advice of many others I started with the fuel sending unit. The unit itself is fairly new and with a multimeter it registered about 16 ohms on full and 119 ohms empty...

On the older fuel tank (72' and older) what size is the supply connection? I'm having trouble determining the diameter and thread pitch. I also don't want to get robbed buy SOR. I'm sorry but $45.00 for 2 pieces of brass plus their shipping and handling charges are not acceptable!

Yup, another carb question... I got it rebuilt and it runs much better than before (yay for me, and thanks Pinhead videos) But the fuel level in the sight glass seems low when it's running. It's at the bottom of the window. When it's not running it's higher, but not in the middle of the...

Hi guys, first time posting in the tech forums and I'm looking for some advice but here is a little back story on the vehicle before I get to the problem. This is my first cruiser and also my first time working on a vehicle, so please pardon my ignorance or clumsy explanations. I bought a...

I was installing my fuel tank door on my 77 40 the other day and noticed the hinge has a ton of slop. Is that normal or is their supposed to be a bushing in the hinge that wears out?

On a '97 4Runner is the spring on the fuel door available separately and replaceable? Have lost the spring on the fuel door and am unsure if the entire fuel door assembly must be replaced to have a functioning spring loaded fuel door.

I pulled the TBI from my 85 FJ60. It worked great till it didn't. I ordered a Carb from Jim C and in the time he was working on it I was able to send the ECM to have rebuilt. As all things would be I received the Carb from Jim a Carb from Troll and the ECM all back at the same time. I now run a...

The toolbox lid was sandblasted last year but picked up some surface rust in the interim. It's still in very nice condition. I found the pictured fuel line thing in a '72 parts rig a loooong time ago and assume (yes, I know) that its FJ40 but who knows? I also have the upper hardtop piece...

I pulled my fuel injectors in my '97 LX with 253k miles and brought them to a local injector shop for cleaning/servicing. I've used them many times before for diesel injector cleaning/servicing. While the upper plenum was off I decide to clean the oily crap out of it, and wiped out the lower...

Looking to replace the fuel lines that are coming in and out of the fuel tank on my newly cleaned out fuel tank. Any suggestions? Having a hard time finding anyone online that has the parts let alone part number. I sourced the image from spectre off road. Should I just see if I find comparable...

I have a very nice fuel tank cover I no longer need.. located in south jersey zip code 08360.. was removed from a 74 fj40 asking $75 for it........ must be picked up NO SHIPPING.

What is the size of the compression nut on the fuel return line for a 76 carb? And where can I get one? Is there another solution? I have been running a blocked off fuel return line and want to put it back to stock. Thanks, Phil

45 project. Heard S10 tank has worked before. Got one, but seems long. Only way seems to be to tilt it. If the fuel pickup is in the low end, and vent and inlet on hi end, would it be okay? Not gonna use these springs. Will use Alcan 4" sua or go soa Thanks

Just wanted to confirm, or not, if I had the lines going into the fuel pump correct. Seems like they match up to the diagram I was looking at. Once I fire her up I'm thinking I'll dtart a proper thread.(1985 FJ60) Thanks
