Right, I have a LHD Turbo diesel 5 speed with dual factory battery set up. The positive lead on the starting battery (left side when facing truck) is very frazzled and it's not providing a solid connection. I removed the terminal end to replace it and straighten out the braid so that slides...

Hi gang. Just want to say a quick apology to anyone that has answered on my previous posts. Life suddenly got in the way this year and kept me from the tank, but I'll be back in the game next month and will follow up on every post I started. I definitely appreciate all your help. As I'm getting...

Does anyone with one of the early LRA auxiliary tanks have trouble filling the main tank? Anything much faster than a trickle backs up. What I've already done: blew out lines, confirmed no obstruction replaced breather filter added strap to prevent kinking in fill hose below the metal, upper...

I’m not sure if this hissing (aka air spewing) is normal coming from the jet in the primary Venturi … I took off my air cleaner assembly to look - just sounds really loud. And maybe my ears all the sudden are just attuned to it or it’s new which I think. I was attempting to tune the carb a bit...

Finally getting around to prepping my f155 engine for reassembly after it sat for a couple of years in the work trailer. Just got around to test fitting some parts and plasti-gaging the crank with the new bearings. With the main bearing cap shims, the oil clearance is around .07mm, barely...

Hi all I just did my rear main seal and followed @Poser ‘s method, which is taking the oil pan off along with the main bearing cap (#4). My engine is a ‘77 2F, and I have it off the vehicle on an engine stand. Overall it went very smoothly. When putting the main bearing cap back on, what is...

Hey guys, I watched a YouTube video, I don't remember what about. The guy had his main engine cover hinged in the back and some kind if catch in the front. I think he was using the oem catches maybe modified somehow. He could lift it at the front to reveal the massive beauty underneath...

Hi all, first post and new (to me) GX owner. 07, non-nav with great maintenance records and all. Rides great and all that, but was cleaning up some really small residual oil when I was underneath the truck today. Right on the main seal, not enough to make a drip, but noticed it wet when I wiped...

I have an ‘81 BJ42 with a 13B. I believe I need to replace the main bearings but I need guidance how to identify the main bearing specs for correct replacement as well as where to locate preferably OEM main bearing replacements. I don’t know the month or year of the engine. Here are some...

Couldn't find Toyota spec sheets for head bolts/washers or main bolts. @OGBeno says I never will. So I sent a new head bolt/washer to my ARP contact, hoping they might have an exact fit off-the-shelf so we don't have to mess around with Opel and Supra studs. I'm told they need more information...

Hello everyone, I am fairly new in the world of 70 series and I am hoping someone can clarify (and educate me) on the main differences between my KZJ70 and the similar 2dr 70 series I have pictured below. From my understanding, there are 3 main differences: 1) Engine: my KZJ70 has a 1KZ-t...

I've been working on a replacement for my 80's primary engine earth cable linking the neg terminal of the main battery direct to the connection point at the bottom of the 1hz engine block. This is what the end fixed to engine looked like until I took it off yesterday: '] pic page The bolt is...

Anyone out there have Main bearing torque specs for the early Toyota B engine? If I had hair I'd be pulling it out....

Ok so after completely destroying my rear main seal trying to get it in are there any tricks to this!? I used a pipe the same diameter as the seal and it just wasn't going in!! The outer diameter of the seal just seems about 2 mil too big. Here are some pics. Any help would be greatly...

Ever 100 series I've looked at needs a main fuse box lid Seal. With some of the issue we've seen with these fuse boxes, I'd like to keep internals clean & dry as possible. The seal is our only defense to this end that I'm aware of. I've never pulled the fuse box, so I have no idea if any other...

so I'm changing all my fluids and noticed my engine oil is wheeping at the engine/trans seal. It looks like I may have caught it on a stick as it's bent. I didn't cheap my oil level prior to draining. I haven't noticed any spots or pressure changes. Anyways should the gasket be bent like...

Has anyone fitted AGM batteries in place of std lead-acid type in their 80? If so, who might now what the closest equivalent(s) in terms of size and terminal config to N70ZZL are available? I'm aware of Odyssey and Northstar as well-regarded brands of AGM battery particular in the USA. I know...
