I’m in the process of finishing up an engine install and desmogging while I’m at it. I’ve got the TLC air pump eliminator pulley installed. I’m guessing my OE adjustment bracket was already bent prior to disassembly and I just didn’t notice. But now without the meat of the air pump giving it...
I have a spare smog pump I no longer need. Back in 2019 my smog pump blew up, it was a pain to find one so I purchased a second to have on hand. This pump was rebuilt by classiccruisers.com and has been sitting in the bag on a shelf ever since. $300 and I will cover USPS priority shipping in the...
Putting it out there....
Failed a smog today - OBDI..... 2500 RPMs passes everything great - but at idle the HC measure 218 - max is 100. All other numbers pass at both idle and at 2500.
Recent new plugs, wire, rotor, cap and TPS

I live in Montana, we don't have smoog laws but I now have two 2F's and I am considering stripping the smog equipment off both. Is there a need/market for this stuff behind enemy lines? I know a lot of states require emissions testing and equipment to be present. Curious if I should try to keep...
I took my 95 LC 4.5L to get smogged, it passed every thing, but the EGR valve wont hold a vacuum.
I replaced the valve and still it wont hold a vacuum, so I am getting a replacement.
Is he doing the test correctly? its in idle when he attempts. if i remember correctly my 88 4runner had a...
Hey all. Does anyone have some insight. If I get 2 brand new cats (front and rear) sent to my friend in Nevada, will there be enough difference in emissions to fail smog even though the cats are brand new just technically not CA compliant?
Hooking the A/C components back up but the smog pump is not in the best shape.
Any alternatives to putting an idler wheel in there to adjust the tension on the belt without using the smog pump as an idler?
I recently removed everything smog related off of my 87 FJ60. I currently have all smog components and they are in working condition. My truck ran like it should. All components have 168k miles. The manifolds have cracks in them so I'll hang onto them but everything else available. I have an air...
I am pulling all of the smog components off of my 1987 FJ60. I cut this aftermarket cat off and it has the themosensor retrofitted to it. I'm not sure if it works or not. My truck operated like it should. The flange is still present on the thermosensor and my guess is that you could remove it...
Greetings,
My 1980 CA FJ40 is in Europe and a 'keeper' that will pass to the next generation(s). I am conscious of trying to start sourcing some of more difficult items to find due to the CA smog stuff. Any help/ suggestions on what items that would be good to start accumulating for the day...
Edit 4/30/2023 on what's still available:
Air cleaner
Exhaust side smog items
Exhaust manifold
Parting out, or selling whole.
Not using the smog components that came off the 1984 2F doner engine I purchased.
Prior owner claimed everything worked, and was driving for several years, however I...
Currently working on the finishing touches for a 1978 fj55 (2F) restoration. Any advice for finding original specifications for the smog equipment for that year?
So far I have found that there are Emissions Equipment manuals, but I have not found one specifically for 1978 yet.. Purpose of...
