fuel

I am original owner of 1978 FJ40. Replaced the leaking mechanical fuel pump with a Toyota mechanical fuel pump. It does not consistently pump fuel to the factory carb. I can be driving for a few days, week or month and then it dies and will not start up until it sets for at least 6 hours...

How typical is it for the fuel gauge to be inaccurate on the 80 Series when everything "looks" to be in good condition? Trying to determine if I am chasing results that are not realistic before doing the FSM procedure to test everything. My gauge often says there is less fuel than I really...

Looking for a place in ABQ or close to that is willing to replicate and build me a new fuel tank or to patch this rusted tank (no reproduction units available.

Another posting, this time my experience, with fuel smells and I believe related, engine will not restart. Dealer installed new fuel pump, fuel sender, fuel relay, EVAP (complete), and yet problem persists. Smell when left idling long periods (border crossings and dog must wait in truck, 100F...

Hello, few weeks ago, I replaced the original petrol tank with a smaller aluminum one, since I installed a large LPG tank. Inside the small aluminum tank I replaced the old fuel sender assy that I had to adapt to try to detect the new fuel level. Now it happens that as the level in the small new...

Hey guys, Last week my little Cruiser decided to strand me. Shortly before it died, I heard relay(s) clicking intermittently underneath my steering column/dash area. A colleague managed to get me moving by hotwiring my fuel pump cutoff solenoid - not a long term solution, as the truck then...

Hey guys! New to the land cruiser scene and wanted some advice! I've recently purchased an 80 series and am learning all new things about the car on a weekly basis. As of now I'm getting about 330kms to a full tank (subtank removed by previous owner for own reasons) and the car is running rich...

Can anyone recommend me to a good diesel mechanic for a 76 BJ40 in the Colorado area? Need to look at some oil leaks and adjustment for fuel/air, because of higher elevation it seems to run rich. Ran great at lower elevation, moved 5000 feet higher and now sluggish and leaving more black smoke...

Now selling LandCruiser EDIC controller boards with a brand new factory plug! These boards have a higher corrosion-resistance than OEM boards, meaning they’re perfect for reviving your rig. Now coming with the factory plug installed means they are plug and play. Each board is $200 or $250...

So this issue popped up when water entered the driver side dash and caused loads of electrical issues, most of them have been solved but the thing that’s driving me nuts is the car won’t start on main tank “sometimes”. Meaning, if I crank the engine, it starts, and the tachometer goes above 1K...

Hi guys, I own a landcruiser 80 1997 turbo diesel automatic with a single factory fuel tank 90 liters (24 gallons) 1. Any idea where to get in USA a long range fuel tank to replace the factory tank? 2. If thr spare wheel underneath the body is removed to install an auxiliary fuel tank where the...

G’day guys When I bought my 1994 1fz-fe 80 series it had been LPG converted. What I mean by that is the original auxiliary petrol tank had been ripped off and an LPG tank was fitted with all the parts that make the car run on both petrol and LPG. I know this was a common thing to do back in...

1991 FJ80 with 245,000mi. My issue was present before and after I recently did my injectors. When idling for a minute or 2 the engine starts to misfire, lope, and generally "run rough". A quick press on the go pedal will make the engine run correct for about 5 seconds then run poorly again after...

For my '87 FJ60, I am looking for the cleanest fuel tube sub assembly for all those hoses going to / coming from the side of the fuel tank at the passenger side rear quarter panel - right near the filler neck entry to the tank. It is PN# 77209-60041. A shiny new one looks like this: Thanks!

Up for sale is a variety of Rotopax Items: - 2x 2-gallon Rotopax Fuel tanks (Fuel Pax) - 1x 2-gallon Rotopax Water tank (Water Pax) - 2x Rotopax DLX Pack Mounts Items were used and do show some cosmetic signs of wear. However, all items function correctly - the containers do not leak and...

I'm selling the 80 series dual filler necks. The neck is without unleaded gas restrictor and can be used with diesel and petrol tanks. This filler neck can be used when adding an auxiliary fuel tank to Land Cruiser 80 Series cars. I used one of these necks on my FJ Cruiser, with a Front Runner...

In an effort to lighten the load and make space on longer trips, I’ve made the switch from Scepter cans to the Giant Loop 5 gallon gas bags and have used them on my last two trips. With a few hundred miles off road (and too many of those washboard), so far I can attest to how well made these...

Granted I’m towing ~6,000 lbs with wind but WTH? Currently driving Denver > Albuquerque > Grand Canyon > Vegas > Moab but barely making it between some pumps. Otherwise the tow experience is great for a non-HD truck but this seems a bit off.... BTW the trip odo is showing the full trip not...

BUMP Re-posting as I had a sale fall through before the holidays. Have a nearly new (less than 1000 miles on them) set of Wheels and Tires that came off a project that never ended up taking off thanks to COVID. They've never been off-road. Wheels are Fuel Blitz Matte Black, full set, no...

G’day, I’ve got a 105 series auto petrol I’ve had for a few months now and I’m really enjoying it. It’s having a problem with it running out of fuel/power when using the main-tank only. It’s happens anywhere between there being 38L to 18L of fuel left in the tank. Its running well apart from...
