oil

Hi Guys I need a 3b oil filter housing that hangs down. The one on my 3b is up and will get in the way of the turbo. If you have one I would realy use it. I have checked with the rock mountain guys and nobody has one. Thanks

My mechanic was doing some repairs on my 1995 TLC and he noticed some dirty oil in the bottom of the side coolant reservoir. (I think that this is the part circled in red in the attached photo). He wasn't sure how this occured, or if it means that this is a sign of a bigger problem with the...

Alright... don't flame me too bad for these questions. I found lots of info on engine oil via search engines and this forum, yet I could not find an answer to my specific questions. I'm trying to decide on a synthetic engine oil and viscosity for my 1HD-FT. I am a huge fan of Mobil 1...

I have an FJ40 series oil cooler and oil filter bracket assembly for sale. It is a little dirty but was working well when I removed it from my 1982 FJ40 last month. Asking $200.00 shipped within the USA (actual shipping cost elsewhere).

I saw this post in Facebook LX570/LC200 North America group talking about what "710" fluid to use with higher mileage engines. Most respondents agreed with using 5W-30 or 5W-40. This is something I have never thought of so it caught me by surprise especially with my '14 LX 570 at 183K miles. If...

Finally learned to changed the oil from my cruiser. It's not much but it's a first step on learning to maintain your own car. Unfortunately the oil filter was I got was too small so I'll have to go and buy the right one. Besides transmission fluid and fuel filter, was else should I drain?

Hi all is it possible to remove the engine oil sump of the 1kzte while in the KZJ78, I was going to inspect and clean the oil pickup?

Drove the 80 for the first time longer than 10 minutes after recently doing quite a bit of PM. Was checking for oil and coolant leaks. Noted this fluid on the ground. Touched it and it was cool and clear with no smell (likely water). I did not have the AC on during the trip but wondering if...

I’ve just taken my exhaust headers off my 1hz and it’s got what looks like oil but on the block. Wondering what anyone thinks it could be thanks .

Just went to check oil level and found no markings on the dipstick. It does have the following stamp: 1811229C2. It measures 52 cm from tip to the bottom of the yellow bonnet. Is it partly broken off?

Another Interesting Car Care Nut video, in this case on the US build Tundra 3UR-FE and issue with timing chain tensioner. Wondering whether 0W20 pushed by the EPA is resulting in less oil pressure and possible issue with these tensioners not exerting enough force. Seems the rotor type oil pump...

I've not got my car currently so I can't check myself.

Here are some pics of the engine compartment. Apologies for the mis-ID of the type. As a new one to these I thought that because it's 3 liter it is a 3B. It is a B motor. The previous owner did put A/C on it as you can see. No heater. Went to local Toyota dealer parts guy who said that the...

I'll start by say I just finished rebuild my engine, all new gasket, rings and clutch. So I disconnected the fuel pump relay so I could crank her over a few times to build oil pressure, the problem is the gauge doesn't jump up and upon removing oil pressure sender, no oil was coming out. It...

1979 Canadian 24volt BJ40 with 3B engine. No oil pressure on the gauge. Grounding the wire leading to the sender causes the gauge to max out. Removed the old sender and installed new 24volt sender. Still no reading on the gauge. By the way the old sender was marked 12 volt.

Good afternoon everyone! My 1967 FJ 40 has its original oil bath air cleaner but I just discovered I’m missing the steel mesh insert. Any idea where I could score one?

I've had good advice so far for my sortie into the world of the BJ40. Thanks! If anyone from around the world has a source for proper filters for the 3B motor, I'd be grateful. Thx

2004 LX470 128k miles what key hole lubricant is your go to this thing keeps locking up and wont turn until its gets oil. Ive tried to clean it with a degreaser then using a silicone lube then the issue comes back within 1 week and its not like she drives everyday. Do I need to pull it and...

It seems that my oil filter is leaking around the top. It's a Fram and I've read that it is easy to overtighten them crushing the gasket. So what and where can I find an appropriate oil filter for replacement and future oil changes? Thanks

Hi folks, time to service my 40-Series and, after a long pause, bring it back to the road again... I changed the gear box oil: according to the owner's manual the specs are API GL-4 or 5 and viscosity SAE 90. Went to my local parts shop and they gave me this gear oil: specs GL-5 and viscosity...
