The head was resurfaced with new valves and the cam was reground by Delta in Tacoma, WA, plus reground crank new bearing, rings, etc. I'm wondering what I should set my valves at cold before starting so that when I break in the...

    Exhaust smell in cabin at startup especially cold start

    Hi! I have a 2001 LC100 with about 165k. 5-10 seconds after start up, especially when the vehicle is cold, I am notice a particularly noxious exhaust smell in the cabin that has a little bit of a diesel exhaust smell (perhaps there is oil pooing in a cylinder as the vehicle sits). It seems to...

    (SOLVED!) 1HD-FT fuel starved at startup

    I have a 95 HDJ81 with the 1HD-FT. Recently, she's decided not to start after sitting for a long while (usually overnight). Pumping the accelerator while cranking will finally get her going. 24V starter is strong (replaced ~40K km ago by PO) and cranks hard as long as the batteries will hold...

    Newb question: normal fast idle on cold startup

    Hi, I bought a well-worn 1994 Land Cruiser four days ago and I don't have a factory manual yet, so pardon the basic questions. What is a normal fast-idle RPM, starting up cold, on a moderately cold day? Say, 40°F. How quickly does it drop to the (I think) 650 RPM regular idle? And does it...

    Unusual message on startup

    I have an '05 100 series that has been pretty solid. It started up fine this morning, but I saw something on the screen right after starting I had never seen before. It was a message with a picture of a cd/dvd disc and a bar graph that worked its way across the screen over a few seconds. The...
