oil

Just put a rebuilt 1F in my 1973 FJ40.I am using mallory dual point ignition. Checked that the nub at bottom of distributor is long enough to drive oil pump.Had good oil pressure when first started. But after she warms it drops down to marginal on the gauge.I worry about this bcause my last...

Does anyone know where I could find these 24v replacement guages?

Is there any reason NOT to use Royal Purple Duralec SAE 15W-40 in a 1HDT?

What kind of motor oil? I know it’s 10w 30 but I’m assuming because of its year it can take conventional oil? Should I put synthetic or a blend instead? Thank you!

ARB rear locker and onboard ARB single tank compressor in engine bay have been great. Slee installed so done right. Last week was out and re-pressured tires up as always for the run home. Got home and big pool of oil collecting under front tire - opened hood and source was at the compressor...

So my 3B is using considerable amounts of Oil (details I'm photo) per week, Thing is I'm not noticing or smelling much burnt oil from the exhaust or any leaks. It seems to mostly be coming from the breather pipe. I wondering if switching to a thicker oil would help at all and also why it's doing...

I recently got a used 2015 LC200. I'm not sure if the oil meter means level or pressure - either way - I'm wondering if my needle is too low? Is that normal? I do notice it goes up (to about half way) when I'm using engine-braking (lower gears down hills). Where's it supposed to be? (and...

Just got my 2F machined and rebuilt. Machine shop sent need a slip of cardboard specifying which oil they said I should use. But they didn’t say which type. What do you guys run? I’m at altitude at 5800 ft in cold ass Idaho Thanks Dan

As pictured, NOS 2F oil cooler - ADDED the additional NEW o-rings, gaskets, hard and rubber lines as pictured below $300 plus the shipping from Houston TX

Pics say it all. What are my options? Does anyone remember where the bottom of this line goes? I'm dreading taking my lifter cover off... I really hope I don't have to pull the motor to access it. Any help is very appreciated!

Hey, I believe my rig is leaking a bit of oil where the distributor goes into the block. It's just metal on metal. Is there no gasket for this part? Thanks

I recently inherited a FJ62. I had all the fluids changed at the dealer and it pretty much sat for the next 6 months. When I checked the oil this morning it was way past full, so I assumed they over filled it. I dumped all the oil and pulled the filter then did a refill. At 7 quarts it is...

Hey everyone, I want to start changing my own oil. With the exception of the oil and the metal cap removal adapter, am I missing anything needed for an oil change? Is the factory recommended 5,000 mile interval with full synthetic the way to go? Anything I need to look out for? Finally, what...

I have a low oil pressure indicator dashboard light that is coming on when the pressure gauge is normal (see attached). So I suppose either the light is a false-positive, or the gauge is wrong (although the gauge seems to behave normally - drops on low revs and rises at higher revs). Any...

Hello, It's been a while since I haven't changed the differential oil from my FJ80 for a couple of years. Recently checked the oil and it's due. Any recommendations when changing it? What kind of oil and brand should I choose? I always try Napa autoparts. Thank you!

I’m in the process of changing my oil pan, and I faintly noticed tiny metal shavings in the pan that did not appear in the oil change. You can also see sludge and a little bit of coolant residue that was from a bad oil cooler gasket which I replaced already. My issue is not knowing what to do. I...

First, a poll. This is for the F/2F folks specifically. Pick all that apply... oil weight AND Dino vs. Synthetic.

Hello Everyone Actually I have replaced my 2F engine with a 1HZ and put 2F's oil bath air cleaner for it. But the problem is the oil in oil bath goes to the intake manifold and then goes to the cylinder. The result is that oil burns and white smoke comes out from my exhaust. Does it have any...

Hi All First post, unfortunately not the question I hopped to be asking but glad all the same to hear all your advice!! We brought our troop just before we went back into lockdown (Melbourne, Australia) and had strict 5km limits on where we could travel to. We have since relocated 200km to the...
