    Fuel governor shimming thread

    Hey all. I've been recently looking into modifying the stock governors for our rotary injection pumps. It used to be popular with the 1.6TD Volkswagen guys, however the same tricks can easily be transfered over to our pumps. There are two styles of governors. The pull type all speed governor...

    Blocked Charcoal Canister

    Hi, I have a 1FZ-FE and believe the charcoal canister is blocked. Bad fuel economy and over/under pressure when opening the fuel tanks for filling. Has anyone experienced a blocked canister and how negatively did it effect your fuel economy?

    Locking Gas Cap Considerations | Fuel Cap Security

    I don't believe my gas cap is OEM, so it will be getting replaced. I have been considering for a while getting a locking fuel cap, but I'm worried about quality control issues and all other issues that might arise when purchasing aftermarket stuff. I'm leaning hard towards just getting an OEM...

    Weber 38 12v source - desmogged fuel cut solenoid?

    1980 FJ40 with a weber 38 carb looking for a switched / acc 12v source - So far, I've read that some people here like to use the ignition coil - however mine only puts out about 6.5-7v, so I assume if I used that, that's gonna take longer for the carb to open up. I've been doing okay without it...

    Fuel Sending Unit Emergency Bypass

    Recently had the fuel tank dropped and took opportunity to change the fuel pump. As anyone who's done this knows it's not easy to do on the trail or side of the street. I've thought of converting to some type of inline pump and get rid of in-tank pump but as others have pointed out it's a...

    starting issue

    I replaced the fuel lines in the engine compartment and now starting my LJ77 takes a lot of cranking. I tried the primer but it no longer seems to work. The truck does start every time but I have to crank it for 15 to 30 seconds. What could be the problem? Thanks,

    Solved: Rat chewed fuel tank sensor wire and I can't find the other end

    I checked the little portal under the carpet and found that the fuel tank pressure sensor wire had been chewed. However, I cannot find the other end of the wire. Can anyone clue me on where to look? The sensor points towards the front passenger seat so I figure it's in that direction, but I...

    Fuel Pump Relay Troubleshooting

    Hi All, Could I get a sanity check on normal behavior of the fuel pump relay (FPR). I'm trying to determine if I should be observing cycling of the FPR back and forth during engine warmup. By observing, I mean hear it clicking and feel the relay cycle periodically by putting my hand on it...

    Can I use standard fuel hose for this?

    Hi, I replaced an old hose - see picture (Differential Pressure Control PN 95337-06020), with standard fuel hose (NBR/PVC SAE30R7). Should I be worried about it? Does this hose require higher standards? Thank you!

    Inside a 200k mile fuel tank

    I'm throwing my rig a bit of a 200k mile birthday party, and as part of that I dropped the tank and installed a new fuel pump as PM. The logic for this was the few reports of bad fuel pumps (Teckis, others), or fuel pump ECUs (CharlieS, seems like a couple more) which I believed at the time had...

    fuel gauge question

    I have a 67 with original cluster and gauges. I just put in a new tank with new sending unit and now the fuel gauge reads full 100% of the time. I swear I read somewhere that the new sending units don't match up with the old gauges because the voltage output is different. Am I imagining that I...

    1968 FJ40 fuel Gauge Sender

    With a new fuel sender, the fuel gauge only goes to about 3/4 to 7/8 full when I articulate the float full up. The gauge follows properly when moving the float arm part way. When I set it at full down, the gauge indicates past empty. I measured the unit resistance with two DMM's, and the...

    Toyota 3B Fuel

    So usually when I turn the key I hear the fuel pump then glow plug timer goes etc etc. About a week ago I cracked open a banjo bolt on the injector hub thing to unlink a hose and forgot to bleed the fuel lines afterwards. It started choaking and struggled to start/stay running without...

    Kzj78 hitting fuel cut

    Hey all, so recently I’ve been noticing when i accelerate I sometimes will end up going past 10psi and getting fuel cut. I don’t run a boost T or anything like that, so I shouldn’t be going over the normal stock boost levels. Im guessing it’s potentially a wastegate issue. I’m planning on...
