'85 FJ60 Needs Carburetor Work

[Esplorare]

Is it best to repair or replace/upgrade carburetor on '85 FJ60?

I had great luck rebuilding my carb. I've owned this machine for over 30 years and I don't remember it ever running this good. I have rebuilt countless carburetors over the years so I'm very comfortable doing so. If you are up for it, I say rebuild.

Depends. You don't give much information on your driving conditions or Carburetor condition or smog laws in your area.

I would send it to Mark at Marks Off Road. I did a a desmog and had a rebuild from Mark and it is a different truck.

Thanks. Can you recommend a source to get the right kit for my carb?

I'm sure there will be much disapproval, but I used a simple kit from walker products that I believe came from Amazon and purchased the secondary diaphragm from City Racer. As I mentioned, it runs fantastic!
