Ok, I know there are a ton of threads on this subject and I have read them all. I am planning on doing a desmog on my 1983 FJ60. Looking for comments and resources specifically related to doing the desmog on an early model 60 with a 2F engine. Any gotchas, "oops I did this wrong when I did mine", parts list, any step by step, any follow up work/advice once done, etc.... Again, no FJ62 ratholes on this thread...
My engine was rebuilt less than 2 years ago, 148K miles on it now. Strong other than quirky hesitation and surging when cold....Looking like EGR issues. I live in Texas and can remove without issue. I plan to do this, an OME lift and an H55 conversion....this is top on the list so any advice would be great. I am working with a shop that exclusively works on Toyota 4X4s and has good experience with these engines, but he has yet to do a desmog. He is doing research on it while I get the lift done and will tackle this after Thanksgiving.
Thanks by the way for all advice. Great community of folks who love to share and I have only owned mine a couple of months and have already been able to do the same. Invaluable.
