overheating

Rubber Gromet Style Thing Leaking coolant on LX470/100 series!

Howdy Mudders, My 60 started overheating on a road trip to California (im in CO) this summer. I noticed the engine was real quiet- usually the original fan clutch would always be engaged unless it was below 10 outside (not normal but I liked the roar). I figured the 40 year old fan clutch fluid...

Hello I drive a landcruiser 100 from 1999 with a 4 speed auto. The problem is that it keeps overheating. After only 1 - 2 hours of highway driving my transmission is already at 120°C. The oil that's comming out of my transmission cooler is just warm (like 40 degrees or something. Just warm on my...

Hey all - hoping someone can steer me in the right direction. My JDM 1987 BJ-71 with the 13BT engine suddenly starting overheating. Coolant was a bit low, but it started overheated again. I had white smoke from tailpipe that seemed like steam only. First thing I did was change cap for genuine...

Hi Mudders, Maybe someone can help who has seen this show before. I did a 1Hz 4.2 diesel swap on a FJ62 (removing a 3f) a while back. I had some electrical gremlins I managed to sort out, and a number of air leaks (including one on the fuel pickup inside the tank) which caused all sorts of...

I love this truck and I'm so frustrated now after literally several years of trying to resolve this issue. FJ60 1981 2F. The engine was rebuilt 2+ years ago by Marlin of Marlin Crawlers. Very meticulous. It was replaced in the car by a guy who is less meticulous... but supposedly with new water...

We have a '73 FJ that runs really cold for the first 5 minutes. It has a 2F engine in it with a rebuilt Holley 2 Barrel carb. I have to start it and let it idle for about 5 minutes to get it to run right. It is almost like it is being starved of fuel. Once it is warmed up, everything is...

Hiya fellas, My GF is at her witt's end with the Samsung dryer showing the HE fault, which is "overheating". The #1 cause of this is the vent that's obstructed, which isn't the case here. I'm going sound out what my thoughts are and let me know if there's something else I haven't thought of...

Hi Everyone, looked around and never found what I was looking for so here goes. Had this 82 hj47 troopy for a year now. engine temp has been perfect the whole time, but as of recent, it has decided to over heat (or says its over heating) intermittently. normally the gauge reads at the low third...

Hi guys. I just replaced my steering rack today. I took off my whole radiator assembly. But after everything put back. My water temp went to the top. I quickly shut off the car and put more water in the radiator. Everything seems works fine. However I was waiting a train to pass. The temp slowly...

Ok, my radiator was starting to weep, so I ordered a new Toyota radiator, and was topping off coolant. My wife was just using for dropping kids off at school, but she went a bit further and LC overheated. I had her shut it off when she called. Replaced radiator, thermostat, hoses, and water...

So I picked up my 2010 GX460 at the long term airport parking lot last nite in the rain, fog and darkness. I drove the 55 miles back to my house and the last 12 or so miles and noticed what I thought was mud and water coming out from my rear wheels . As I got to lights of my small town I saw...

Sons car overheated on the interstate last Friday. It sounds like a radiator hose or the radiator itself failed. He's 12 hours away from me, but says it still starts. All kinds of misfires and engine lights though. 240,000 miles. No rust. Transmission has been shifting fine. He just had tcase...

I have a 1970 FJ40, original F engine, most everything is original as far as I know. Aftermarket temperature gauge, normally operates around 180-200 deg F. Once it gets above 200, you can tell the thermostat opens and brings the temp back down. Have had it this way for over 10 years without...

I have a 1984 FJ60 with 1HDT Diesel Engine and H55 transmission. When I first acquired the rig, it seemed to run hot; on a long hill it would go from 175 F to 215F. I replaced the thermostat with a new one (175F) and put in a new high capacity (375 HP capable) radiator and a 4000 CFM dual...

Occasionally when towing bigger trailers (1.5-2.5T), I very intermittently experience odd behavior, most obvious being like the car becomes speed restricted to 80-90km/h, overdrive seems to not work for a period. I swear its due to the auto transmission overheating but I have no way to tell for...

Hey! So, recently my land cruiser started overheating when idle for extended period of time. Accordingly i have replaced the following parts with new genuine toyota parts: thermostat, waterpump, temperature sensor, fan clutch (radiator/engine), fan motor (ac/the fan inside the grille on the...

Hey! Note: my car is 200 series but I’m posting here since some markets did not get the 200 series in 4.7l V8 option. So, recently my land cruiser started overheating when idle for extended period of time. Accordingly i have replaced the following parts with new genuine toyota parts...

I've been getting A/T temp lights. 1st time was shortly after my timing belt was done. I pulled over & found the Rad reservoir was empty. Let it idle as manual says to do for temp lite, added coolant & waited for light to go out. Continued on to an off-road trip and no issues. Few weeks later...

My 1984 fj60 tends to run pretty low oil pressure when its hot outside. In the cooler months and in the mornings it reads just fine. What could cause the low pressure readings when its hot out?
