Sweet! Man that thing is just getting broke in! You gonna flip it?
This sucked.
Ugh. Why'd you pull it?
To replace fuel pump. My old 62 I just cut a panel in the floor of the cargo area. I got the dumb idea to do it "right" on this one. I'm a dumbass. I'd already be done if I had just cut this one.
Not as much as putting it back in. Coming out gravity is your friend...as long as the tank has been drained.

Let me know if I can help get it back in
How do you know the pump needed replacing? Few months ago I thought I was going to need to drop a FJ62 tank to replace the pump but discovered that instead the circuit opening relay had died. A 5 minute fix instead of 5 hour fix.
Had to hit the top a few times to get it to start. Luckily it's one of the extra parts that came with the truck.
Need some help... In dropping the tank to do the fuel pump, see that the main power line to the pump has been bypassed and a new line is running along the frame then straight into the fuse panel. Looking at the wiring harness, it looks like it was pinched last time the tank was dropped and re-installed. So, I'm guessing the bad wire is just up from the harness where it was pinched. I cut the wire to before the pinch. Opened the diagnostic box under the hood to jump with a paperclip, which is supposed to turn the fuel pump on with just the ignition set to on. Diagnostic box is full of what looks like grease.
try to get some out with the paper clip and then try the test to see if I'm getting power to the wire past the pinch. No dice, so now I'm wondering if the paperclips aren't making enough connection or if the wire has an issue somewhere farther up the line. Really don't want to get into pulling out all that wire, so I may just leave the new wire jumped into the fuse box. Ideas?

That should be dielectric grease. It is utilized to keep moisture from effecting the electrical plug. Use a volt meter to determine if you are getting power or not. But the grease, if the proper kind, is OK.
yep-greg clued me in on the grease. Volt meter is what I've been using.
Got it figured out. Factory wiring restored.

Replaced Wiper Linkage with OEM along with 4Runner wiper arms and wipers. Had to happen. About $400 and a little blood and cussing.
Won't rain for 6 months now
And the wiper blades will dry rot.
Anyone know a source for a 2f carb insulator block in good shape or new ? I've got a vac leak at the base of the carb, my block is not perfectly flat, and the factory bonded gaskets are long gone , I put new gaskets on it and I still have the leak although not as bad but, it still won't idle ... thanks
