oil

Hey Folks, I just ran over 90k and I started thinking about changing my transfer cases and differentials oils. This also got me thinking about extending the breather on the rear differential. I did it previously on my 4Runner for peace of mind and figured I'd do the same on the GX. The...

Im looking for a oil pan for my 77 BJ40 with B engine. I think a 3B pan would work but not sure. Thanks.

1997, 3.4L v6, automatic in a 1995 4Runner. 4x4. Notice my oil pressure was low. This picture was taken after it was very warm, rolling between Jeff City and Independence. On start up, pressure is higher. At least above the lowest hash mark. What could it be? I'm thinking an oil pressure...

I need to change the oil on my FJ 40's diffs, 3.70. Which Oil should I use....Kindly guide... Thanks

Hi all, I just wanted to double check that I am on the right track before I spend money and pull my rear end apart. (HJ47 fully floating rear) Im loosing rear diff oil somewhere, about 1L over a 2,500km trip. Its not coming out of the pinion (no oil marks) or the breather (again no oil...

I gotta admit even I got a belly laugh out of the initial juvenile trolling response from the forum brain trust; albeit from an entirely different alphabetic perspective...touché! I just love it! The question is...I've been using the WIX 51773 oil filter since the demise of the OEM 15600-41010...

Picked up a M1-209 that's been recommended here in this site. On my way back home I stopped by Walmart and saw these filters on the shelves. Mobil 1™ Extended Performance Oil Filters | Mobil™ Motor Oils Anyone use the M1-209A filter yet?

.....Do your hoses? I don't like the clamp setup. I'd prefer something more secure. Crimped. Is there a better way to secure the oil hoses? How would you boys do it?

Just posted this in the 60 section, but this is probably the more appropriate forum section: Did an oil change and overfilled the F mark by about 4mm, oil level comes up to the start of the F. Haven't run the engine yet and poured some oil in the filter before installing. Overly cautious...

Did an oil change and overfilled the F mark by about 4mm, oil level comes up to the start of the F. Haven't run the engine yet and poured some oil in the filter before installing. Overly cautious, probably unnecessary question: should I bother draining some oil or just run as is? No idea how...

I've just noticed a small puddle of oil under my 2002 LX470. Looks like the leak is at the Drain Plug on the Transfer Case. I assume this is the Transfer Case? See photo. In the photo have I identified the fill plug? What oil do I need? I assume I just open the fill plug and pump in some more...

Just doing the timing chain on my 1989 22r engine. My book says to lift the engine about 1 inch and pull it out. I tried that - no go- lifted it over 2 inches and still no where close. It doesn't even seem like I will be able to lift it high enough to get it out. Does it have to twist out...

Searching the forum I can't find any posts describing this condition. '96 FZJ80, 1FZ-FE, 210,000 miles. This is a recent development. On cold start (temps around 40F) I'm registering nearly zero movement on the oil pressure gauge. After warmup (coolant at full operating temp) oil pressure...

I hope this thread doesn't open up a can of worms. I did a search and I could only find a thread about this subject from 2012. What oil are y'all using during your oil changes? Any old oil filter good to go? Should I use a "high mileage" oil? My FJ62 only has 163K miles. I say "only" because I...

Looking for a 3B downward facing oil filter mount Thx C

Ok...started the turbo upgrade to my 1986 BJ75 today... the tear down fairly uneventful... Now that Im looking at things...looks like im going to have to relocate or flip my present oil filter configuration.. (presently with an upward mount) Also the Power steering reservoir may have to find a...

I'd like to add an oil cooler to a 2F. The factory setups seem to be uncommon and on the expensive side (compared to a cooler I already have) since the oil tap at the filter is pressurized. Am I looking in the wrong place (ebay)? Is there an easy way to tap into the unpressurized side of the...

Why is there so much moly in my diff? The axle seals were replaced 30,000 miles ago and inspected 10,000 miles ago. The breather is, um, breathing. There is ALOT of moly in my gear oil. This was synthetic 6000 miles ago. Mildly bearded drain plug These are newish gears (10,000...

Toyota recommends 0w-20. In other countries thicker oil has been recommended for older land cruisers. In the US we had a 5w-30 recommendation for the 1fz-fe when other parts of the world had thicker recommendations. Historically the land cruiser has been easy on oil with prior engines. I'm...
