testing

Can anyone tell me what I’m looking at for smog requirements in El Paso county, mainly Colorado Springs? Currently have a de-smogged 60 with a Sniper, but it still has a functioning cat. I have all my smog equipment in a box but I’m curious if there is any sort of “visual inspection” it will...

been thinking about getting one for battery testing. I'm considering going 400W in case I want to test biggish solar panels at some point, but those are pricy. So, 200W it may be. (Although it appears that some may be upscaled in power with just some software instructions.) I'd want...

Am trying to track down the source of a vacuum leak in my 60, still has all the smog equipment that I replaced with silicone hose about 5 years ago. The truck was running fine until last spring, 2023 when it went under a car cover and was left over the Texas summer (No AC). a month or so ago...

My 2L-TE is a bit low on power. It seems to run fine otherwise, just not quite as powerful as it used to be. I tested the injectors, and they all passed the leak test just fine. They also all open at right around 2200 psi. The spray pattern looks good on all four as well, compared to pics I've...

Hello, I have a 1995 fj75 landcruiser, I am in search of a cluster. My current one is definitely toast. I have not had any luck finding exact match. Can I use a different design.

My FJ62 is throwing codes 25, 26. CEL comes on after warmup and driving after 5-10 miles. Other than the pesky CEL light, engine seems fine. I hooked a digital volt meter to Ox1 & ground, and also Ox2 and ground, and got a steady voltage swing from about 0.1 volts, to .9 volts around 1 cycle...

Just bought out first 80 and the heat blows cold. Coolant level good. Flushed the front core. Tested the heater control valve( good). Noticed that when I removed the driver's side pipe supplying the core hot water while the engine was running there was no flow. Not even a trickle. Then I removed...

Testing testing

How can I tell if my fuel pump is going bad?

Thought this was pretty interesting. This guy really put some work in on his testing.

I’ve got the FSM and a multimeter… but… physically how do you test the sucker? Just jam the probes behind the wires? Get thinner probes? Any help would be appreciated. This rig keeps throwing me curveballs :)

So I stumbled on this while trying to figure out a way to bench test my ARB lockers and wanted to share. It turns out that the female fitting at the end of a Harbor Freight air blow gun (I assume other brands as well) is 1/8 in. BSP. So the 6mm press fitting to 1/8 in. BSP coupler that comes...

I need some help. I've read over all the forums and I'm still a bit stuck. My fuel gauge always shows empty. Following the advice of many others I started with the fuel sending unit. The unit itself is fairly new and with a multimeter it registered about 16 ohms on full and 119 ohms empty...

I hate and don't understand electricity, so want to make sure I understand what the FSM is saying. I am in the process of following the FSM steps to troubleshooting my AC not blowing cold air and the first step is to test the magnetic clutch relay. The FSM says to do it the same way as it...

So, this has been driving me crazy for some time now. (Don't mind the pun). I've spent days trying to get the bottom of it but I'm reaching the end of my knowledge about the specifics of the engine management system. The problem is I get regular highway mileage but terrible town mileage. I know...
