1989 FJ62 Land Cruiser EFI Relay Start Issue (2 Viewers)

[luckylandcruiser]

I recently purchased this car and pretty much everything is great on it and starts up at a cold start great, only thing is that when i go run errands, after about the third stop of turning the car on and off the engine will crank but not start then after about 30 mins it will start. I put this issue on a Facebook forum and immediately someone said the EFI relay is bad. After researching it definitely seems like that's the issue. SO, i tried bringing to a shop and they didn't know much about this car and the part online for a OEM used one is easily $150-$200... I saw another owner on here say they used a Bosch 30 amp relay, clipped some wires and connectors and it worked great here is the post - I'm all for trying this but i have no clue how to connect which wire to what etc., and my relay has 4 prongs, not 5 like this owners. Can someone explain how they've done this? I've seen other owners with the same issue do the same and say it solved the problems.

No need to cut or hack anything, 85915-60030 from later Toyota works just fine as a plug-in replacement and will last another 30 years for you.
