    Low / rough idle once engine is hot 1994 FZJ80

    Hi all, 1994 FZJ80 starts up great and runs well for about 30 minutes when I come to a stop. Idling is pretty row and drops below 500rpm. Get a pretty strong fuel smell from the exhaust as well. Think O2 sensor based of what I've read. Anyone have a similar problem or any suggestions how to...

    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.

    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...

    Power Steering Stiffness at low RPM

    Howdy folks! I recently brought my car into a local shop in BK, NY after experiencing a power steering hose blow up (while on the freeway!) The shop replaced the pump (I forgot that I had replaced the pump a few months back, I'm ashamed), but it honestly looks like the same (or used) hoses...

    Low Rough Idle After Changing Battery

    Hello, I recently got a '92 FJ80 and have been working out the kinks to get to run better. The truck was bought with a broken ignition cable for the 6th cylinder. I have replaced spark plugs, cables, distributor cap and rotor. The engine was still idling rough and at low RPM after that so I was...

    Low Idle Before Big Trip, Need Advice

    Ive avoided writing this thread for as long as I could, and did an absurd amount of searching. Cant seem to find any one person's situation that accurately replicates mine. Need some advice. I have a 93 FZJ80 with 158k miles on the 1FZ-FE. It has been idling low for about six months now. At...

    Careless Desmog

    Ok, well I'm not sure if it was an effect of replacing my smog pump with a pulley but my 86' is not running so hot or more specific the idle is to low-stalls out, and it diesels, well it always dieseled but I'm curious if there are things one should be aware of before you pull a smog pump. Note...
