Ok so I’ve been battling a low idle for awhile. Couldn’t really pinpoint why it starts tell recent.
It seems to start after going to 55mph+. It runs fine after ECU reset, driving through town for a few days. Jump on the highway and when getting off and coming to a stop (foot off the brakes or...
I've been having an issue over the last week that first started when I was out camping. I had my cruiser idling to charge our phones while at camp on friday and the engine sputtered and died. No CEL or anything. It started up again and idled smooth, didn't have the issue again until this...
80 series with dual batteries. Uses 24 volts for start and runs with 12. At idle it's reading 12 +/- at both the dash voltmeter and the auxiliary one and when running it's approximately 14.5. Also, when the signals are on at idle the tach and factory voltmeter "bounce" a bit.
What should it be...
Hi Guys,
My Saudi spec 1982 FJ40 with a 2F has developed a strange intermittent electrical fault. It mainly occurs when the vehicle is just sitting idling, the engine will stop running and the instrument panel loses power. I can restart the engine and it will run but the idle circuit has no...
I'm hoping that someone can help explain how the idle up works in my 1999 Prado, 1KZTE...
There are two VSV's connected to the top of the Idle Up Actuator: VSV No.1 and VSV No. 2. The Idle Up Actuator has two ports on the top. I believe the Idle Up Actuator controls the small butterfly in the...
Hi All,
New to working on my cruiser. Started it up yesterday to let it warm up in the Utah winter and started hearing this clicking/rubbing noise while idling from the fan area. It seemed to go in and out, so I didn't think much of it. Drove it a few miles down the road and didn't hear the...
I have a spare IAC that I sourced from CruiserParts that was tested by them.

I did not end up using it but can confirm it works after bench testing it and testing it on my rig. My low idle was...
Hey everyone. If you saw my last posts I was struggling with high idle and multiple codes being thrown. I fixed all my codes and checked my vacuum lines, however I am still idling very high. In neutral I am sitting at about 1500 rpm. Not sure where to start. Was thinking a tune up might do the...
I was testing my AC Idle up, and while it was engaging, it was not consistent or strong enough(FJ62 Manual). I then 'bypassed' the AC Idle up Valve and found plently of suction to engage the suction cap switch. I found I was loosing pressure in the AC idle up valve, and some testing found that...
97 TLC. Essentially unmodified from stock, but massively reconstructed...frame swap etc, so if there is something wrong, its likely my doing. Yes, it ran before the teardown.
So I've got the beast all back together from frame swap and professional head rebuild. Engine starts and idles...
I currently have a 74 FJ40 with a 2f engine and 75 carb. Can I use the original setup on the 74 which consists of the wire on the harness side coming through the firewall (attached picture) or do I have to use the 1975 setup? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
Sorry if this has been asked before, my search didn’t yield any info. Does anyone know where to find a gasket for a pre-‘75 idle solenoid? Do I need to make my own?
Also, I haven’t seen much on these earlier solenoids. Are replacements NLA or does someone sell them?
Thanks!
Having trouble with idle solenoid in my stock Aisan carb. Just finished the rebuild kit and was having trouble with idle and figured it was the solenoid. It bench tested fine, but doesn't work once installed on the carb. It has 12v going to it, and I ran a ground straight to the battery and...
Hey all.
I haven't been on here in awhile and honestly, its because my 100 series has been great!. But, that ended yesterday. I have always had the exhaust manifold ticking noise, but yesterday it started to get worse and then started sputtering at idle. I drove it for a bit and it...
The Lexus was so quiet at idle for years that I sometimes didn't know it was running and tried to start it again. My 2006 has 160k miles and while not terrible I can feel it idling. Is this due to motor mounts aging? What causes this, what can be done to remedy, and how much would it cost?
Hey guys,
So my 2013 has all of the sudden started to stumble just after start up and feels like it’s going to die with a low idle. It only happens at start up and quickly goes away. Additionally it happens frequently regardless if the motor is cold or warmed up. This has been going on for a...
Forgive the long story, but it might help isolate the issue. My family and i went camping a few weeks ago and on the way home the 1997 Land Cruiser 80 series (US 1FZ-fE) started running rough and the check engine light was flashing. I pulled over and pulled the spark plugs to see if I could...
Hey all! Read through a ton of posts the last few months and learned a ton. Hoping to describe my specific problem and see if anyone has any pointers outside of everything I’ve been searching.
1986 FJ60 (fully smogged). Bought as a non-runner, though it would crank and start, just died after...
My 105 is on LPG and fuel. It runs fine on LPG, on petrol it idles OK in neutral, but sometimes as soon as you put it in drive and just slowly move around, like turning a corner slowly or in the parking lot it stalls and also misses. But, drive around on fuel and at times, its seems perfectly...
