    Water Temp - Should I be concerned

    When I purchased my 60, it the temperature took a long time to get warm (as shown on the gauge), and when it did get warm it never really made it above the "low" side on the gauge.....in addition to that the heater wasn't really working. A couple weeks ago, I decided to replace the...

    Thermostat outlet

    My Aussie 3B thermostat outlet points to the passenger side while every other photo I have seen points to the driver side. Any reason?

    81+ Thermostat housing on 1979

    Hello, I have a 9/79 with a stock 2F. My thermostat housing has a sensor in it for the oem dash (which I’m not running). I was looking to swap in an 81+ upper and lower thermostat hosing because it’s simpler and it looks like the bypass hose will offer better clearance for my Vintage Air...

    Broken sensor

    Hi folks, When we were doing our thermostat sensor broke off. I did some poking around and my best guess is it is the cold start injector. Does that look right? https://www.ebay.com/itm/165523548286

    Desmog ? - workaround for no BVSV for evap system

    My original lower thermostat housing with the 2 BVSV bungs cracked at the flange when torqued to the factory torque spec, so I bought a new one without the sensor bungs. I've got all my vacuum lines hooked up after my desmog now except for the one running to the BVSV from evap VSV. What's...

    1996 LX450: Replaced coolant hoses and thermostat and now having flushing issues and no heat.

    Bad thermostat on LX470?

    In March of 2021, my OEM radiator took a dump. I ended up installing a new KOYO radiator, and OEM lower & upper radiator hoses/clamps, along with a new OEM thermostat in my 2004 LX470 that currently has around 236,200 miles on the ODO. I have only put around 17,000 miles on the new radiator and...

    Thermostat Qestion

    Hi, I've had an 1985 FJ60 for a while now. I'm trying to keep to old girl running reliably. When I first got her I changed the fluids, hoses, belts, water-pump just because they were "unknowns" and easy to do. So I take full responsibility for any and all screwups :) I suspect that my thermostat...

    Lower Thermostat Housing sample

    First sample received today. Will test fit for compliance. Very happy with it. I've had these made out of a better Alloy than the original. Will last longer. More tolerant of additives etc.

    So onto my first timing belt job on the 2uzfe and ofcourse getting to the water housing it cracked. It was so stuck I had to cut out the remaining piece trying to keep aluminum shavings at a minimum. Now on the hunt for a used replacement I found one that looks like a direct bolt on, but...

    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...
