    Low idle

    Pretty sure there’s no way to diagnose this over the internet, but looking for things to check. 1992 LC, runs perfectly till I get to operating temp then I get a really low idle like it wants to stall… any ideas of where to start would be appreciated. Plugs and wires are new, so I can skip those.

    High RPM when in Idle

    I just bought my Land Cruiser 81' today. My dad drove it 30 min home as I can't drive stick yet. Everything felt good. However, he noticed rhe RMP's sounded high when at stops or when starting up the car. Almost like the choke was on but it wasn't. Could it be something with the Carb? Anyone...

    AC/Heat Fan not blowing on "LO" and AC not cold at idle....

    Hi guys, just going through another round of quirks over here. Truck has actually been running great but of course I can't ever leave well enough alone so I have to find something wrong to fix. The AC not being cold at idle isn't a new issue but thinking they may be related. The new issue is...

    If your Lexus LX470 or Land Cruiser is dying on idle, misfiring, stalling, etc... READ THIS

    Well, couple days ago I posted about my issue, today I figured out the problem. I have a 1998 Lexus LX470, 197k miles, the seller I got it from said it needed a new fuel pump and the symptoms it was having made it seem like he was correct. Then after reading up more on it, I saw there was other...

    YAIT - Yet another idle thread...

    I'm still chasing idle issues, and realistically I probably just need to bite the bullet and buy a new ($$$$) or good used ($$$) IAC valve. I've documented it in other threads, but I've done a lot of work on the rig, plugs, cap, rotor, ECT sensor, FPR, vacuum hoses, PCV, air filter, intake...

    Weird AC Amp - Idle Up Problem

    So I replaced all of Mudhorn's AC parts that touch refrigerant last summer but never got the idle up to work. I had increased the idle to trigger the AC clutch and adjusted the RPM potentiometer to prevent any rapid cycling. I jumped back into this summer and what I found is that I have 12V on...

    '94 FZJ80, power loss above idle

    Howdy Mud, I made the acquaintance of an older man with a '94, US spec, FZJ80 recently. His 80 is way down on power and he's fired the parts blunderbuss at it without success. He's not a computer type of guy so I want to try to bring the power of ih8mud to his efforts via this thread. My...

    '75 FJ40 - Intermittent stalling at idle

    For background, the Cruiser is a de-smogged CA '75 with less than 700 miles on the original Aisin carb that JimC rebuilt over the winter. It's driven almost daily as long as it isn't raining and tonight when it acted up, I had already driven it earlier in the day with no issue. I've done no...

    Rough idle - my fault, but I don't know what I did

    Mea culpa. I changed a lot of stuff at once and am the root of my own problem. But, I don't know what I did to cause it... Before I forget - it is a '94 1FZ-FE with 297k miles. My idle is low and lumpy and i don't know what to troubleshoot. I just got this rig in late spring, I changed the...

    FJ40 Aisan carb idle solenoid working?

    Replacing original solenoid but unsure of function check. The new plunger doesn't visibly move when solenoid energized 12V. It clicks with a thump that feels like internal movement. The end of the plunger has very small pinholes, and an O-ring at the end. Is there an internal function that...

    Fine tuning 3FE

    Hey all, I recently got my 1992 80 running. I bought it with a seized engine and transmission. Found a used engine I went through and resealed and had the transmission rebuilt. It’s running and driving but it’s slow. When I say it’s slow I mean it’s way slower than a 3fe should be. I’ve adjusted...

    White smoke at idle with AC ( in drive mode )

    Hello everyone. I have a 80 series ( 1hdft) I recently got my pump serviced but the guys kinda destroyed it. No power at low rpm and it started getting worse. I now bought a used diesel pump. Got my rings and valves done. Engine is perfect now. But my land cruiser has smoke while in gear at...

    FJ62 Fuel Injector Rebuild

    I'm chasing a gremlin and decided to have the OEM injectors rebuilt. for $150 a piece to replace the fuel injectors a rebuild seemed like the obvious way to go. I found a guy online who goes by Mr Injector. He specializes in cleaning GASOLINE fuel injectors. ~$18.00 to clean each fuel injector...

    Oil Pressure 1998

    Installed new oil filter housing, coolant hoses, oil pressure gauge switch, and valve cover gaskets. Now the oil pressure is running much lower than before. So what’s the normal range? With engine warm, I’m idling at about as low 10. Upon acceleration, 45-50, cruising at 30. Is this normal...

    3FE rough idle

    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...

    Hard to start after fuel pump replacement

    Hey guys I got a 1fz-fe petrol/lpg here and I just replaced my fuel pump to a Bosch one as my car couldn’t idle on petrol and struggle to start if it hasn’t been driven in hours. Now that I’ve replaced it, when the car is cold it will start beautifully within the first crank. But now when the...
