pressure

For anybody who has replaced their compressor or messed with a properly functioning one while changing the belt. How much pressure does it take for you to be able to spin the pulley on the front manually? I have my belt off now and everything spins nice and freely but the compressor looks...

Early on this year, i retrofitted a full a/c system from a 1991 import HDJ80 to a UK spec 1994 HDJ80. I found the whole wiring loom complete, and the retrofit wasnt particularly hard to do, as i had the dash out anyway to replace a leaking heater core. Unfortunately, i pulled the system from a...

Same issue that many people have mentioned before, low oil pressure. I have a test gauge connected to the place where the oil pressure sensor goes. It reads 60lbs at start up. When the temp reaches 195ish, at idle, the gauge goes down to 4lbs then after a few minutes, it goes down to 0. I...

Hello everyone new here as a member but have been lurking for a while. I have a 1978 BJ40 that I have been slowly doing up to put back on the road. One of the main problems have been the brakes. Still has drums all around. I have replaced all the wheel cylinders, rubber lines, master cylinder...

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?

I recently removed my intake manifold to replace the manifold gaskets. Anyhow I put it back together and now the oil pressure gauge isn't working right. I can't remember how I took it apart as the project spanned many weeks. I have these two plugs left over. One is 24v the other might be...

2005 LX470 and the air worked fine until about two weeks ago, when it started running weak. Was meaning to get to looking at it, but one of the fine joys of being disabled is finding that sweet convergence of feeling well enough to do the work, having time to do it, and weather to cooperate...

Hello first post in this thread. I have bought a 1989 ln106 with 276000 kms on it. Was just asking about the oil pressure gauge on this. When i start up and idle the needle goes up about quarter which is still just below the L when rpm get to around 1300 the needle gets to the L and them after...

Hi guys! I have a 2001 VX100 1HD-FT diesel with 300,000 miles on it. I've owned it for two years and love the comforts over the HJ61 it replaced. But the AHC is acting up! I don't want to go conventional, I want to keep the AHC. AFAIK everything except height sensors are original, and I know...

I have been looking in the owner manual and on the bfgoodrich site, but can't really get a clear answer on what pressures to run in different conditions. What are your best practices & recommendations? 1996 HZJ75 troopy with an aluminium flip top roof, full camper interior, 80L water tank...

Last weekend, I made a foolish mistake trying when removing my alternator. I couldn't move what i now know to be the ac compressor far enough out of the way so I disconnected the tube going in to the top of it, result in the ac venting nto the air on my 1990 hdj81. This weekend I rented a...

ok guys, i installed engine and did everything correctly. i went to turn over and it runs. however the oil pressure is zero. before i time it do i have to prime out pump or should it automatically read when turned on and running.

So one of the switches underneath my master cylinder has begun to drip. I tightened it up to no avail. Since I'm not using them anymore and they're only function is to plug holes, which they're failing to do at the moment, can I just get some metric pipe plugs and swap them out?

I have noticed that my top coolant hose has alot of pressure build up in it and would like to know if it seems normal. The engine doesn't overheat or lose coolant, the gauge seems steady, the engine runs good without the radiator cap on without any coolant overflowing. I ask this as I have only...

I've just changed the oil in our new (to us) 78 FJ40. Changed the filter as well and now the pressure gauge is reading nothing (way below the L so you ant as the arm). Engine sounds fine, looks like fresh oil in the top. The old oil was very black, is it possible something in the sensor got...

I recently took possession of a 2017 LC, with Dunlop AT23 tires. Despite the door placard indicating 33 p.s.i. front and rear, the vehicle came with 40 p.s.i. in the front, and 38 p.s.i. in the rear. My first thought was you #$%% hillbillies at the dealership (we've had a few other issues)...

Ok I hear people complaining about getting their brakes bled, and all the difficulties and the need of another person, I bought a small garden sprayer, cut the sprayer handle off, got a 3/16 male threaded nipple, took a new MC cap took the one way valve off, got a small hose clamp to clamp the...

What tire pressures are you guys running when on the trails? In my previous vehicle...jeep yj and in my friends 88 4 runner, we ran around 16 or so when in the San Juans and around 12 or so when in Moab. With my new to me LX being so much heavier, I was debating running them a few lbs higher...

Greetings, so when I remove the rear tank cap there is no pressure, when I remove front tank cap there is a bit of pressure. Which is correct? Guessing the rear? Anyone have a picture of what the tank vent looks like? Thanks.

I know this has been beaten down but I need a little quick help. I looked at some threads on this but wanted to ask about mine specifically. When I turn my key on my oil pressure gauge needle goes to the middle reading. When I turn my FJ62 on the needle drops to 1/4 and when I get on the highway...
