Just got a 91 3fe that lived most of its life in northwest. Decent condition. Its skinny enough i cant put it in garage without taking somrething else out. Fairly well sorted, im adding ss many oe parts to basket as can afford currently.

I checked resources, dont see an FSM for a 91?

edited as i asked 3 questions and found answers to 2 of them already via search.

how long did it take for you to realize that FSM and any other ones you scoop up from here on out , have or will change your 3F-E and FJ80 life ?
- it will never need a charge or a cord

- it can slide off your fender , and hit the shop floor , without you having to Hit up your Wife for YEN for a 18 pack ...

- you can carefully stand on it to lurch that much further into your Engine bay if need be ....


- and best of all it will never need a update , its the Latest and Greatest edition publication for life !


- a 1991 FJ80 has stand alone ALL FULL Color Coded Tracer Stripes wire ans system by system sub-harness Breakdown Charts and Details That matter details like none others before it ..

- see 1991 was the first year for a stand alone EWD FSM ...

- if you do not have the now over 1/2" thick glove Box Owners manual ?

Make it so ! there is very detailed usa spec, 411 not in either other large FSM ...



THIS IS THE WAY........

Just scooped a 1991 150,000 miles pretty much bone stock. No body rust at all, the underside is solid but looks like it’s seen some water. I found it in west tenn and moved it to eastern NC. Had an annoying intermittent no start issue turned out to be the distributer. I also have an intermittent CEL, a small clunk (kickdown cable or front driveshaft area), and a clicking in the left front wheel. I just swapped out the speakers and can’t wait to do more. This thing is addictive I wanna get it sorted! I’m finding this group to be amazing!

What speakers did you install, can you share?

What speakers did you install, can you share?

Sure man it’s these pioneer 6.5’s shallow mount. You can fit them in the front and rear door holes without messing with your window. I’ll post a pick when I get back to the truck. They sound great and amazingly only $28

Pioneer TS-G1620F 6-1/2" 2-Way Coaxial Speaker 300W Max. / 40W Nom., 12.90In. X 7.40In. X 3.20In., BLACK https://a.co/d/6TntKFr

Just got a '91 with a 3FE a bit more then a month ago. Got it for cheap, but its been horribly maintained. Honestly I'm kind of pissed off at it right now, but I know I'm going to love it ones I get the issues sorted. Right now Im battling a persistent manifold leak near the firewall that's driving absolutely nuts.

Things Iv done so fare

-Complete engine tune up with new plugs/wires/cap and rotor, some new gaskets, EGR delete, air filter, PCV valve, fuel filter, yada yada yada...
-Some new vacuum lines
-Cleaned the IAC
-New belts
-New anemic 80amp alt (want to figure out a GM alt set up)
-New ground and power wires
-New fuse link
-Optima red top
-New fuel level sender
-Made my self an exhaust from the headers back with 2.5' TIG welded stainless, two Magnaflow cats, and a Magnaflow muffler. Its to loud and I'm getting a larger Flowmaster muffler to lower the sound hopefully. It came out decent, but man it was a PITA to do with out a lift.
-Done the manifold gasket twice now and its still leaking. Going to do it a third time with doubled up gaskets
-Icon 3' stage 1 lift
-BFG KO2 33" tires on stock 15" wheels
-New steering joints and damper
-New front windshield
-Painted the wiper arms and installed new blades
-Deleted the factory roof rack

Things I have the parts for
-All new suspension bushings and body mounts
-Oil pan gasket
-Drive line U joints

I need to address the brake system. Probably a new MC, soft brake lines, pads and rotors. Still need to lower the proportioning valve after lift. And I need a radio and speakers.
The axles also need a rebuild.
Basically anything that can ware out over time needs replacement on this truck.

No such thing as a cheap car...

address couple issues on the 3FE. one being the EFI relay. If you offroad, it will 100% heat up and you won't be able to start your truck., also inspect your engine mounts and tranny mount, they are prone to crack and sending your clutch fan into your radiator.....

"no such thing as a cheap car" true story man, but sounds like you are well on your way to getting there. I wish i could do more of these repairs im anal about haviing everything right but also afraid to dive into big repairs, so im spending a lot at shops which is a pain in the ass dropping it off, waiting, spending etc. Labor of love i guess right lol

I grabbed a spair relay to keep in the glove box. Got some new engine mounts sitting in a box. Haven't grabbed a tranny mount yet. Iv had the clutch fan thing happen on a BMW of mine before on a road trip from WA to CA. Had to fix a hole it wore into a coolant hose with a piece of tire I found on the road side and a lot of electrical tape. Held up well

EDIT

Just saw the info on the EFI relay wiring. Ill add that to my list.
