Howdy friends,
I am brand new to the FJ80 world, however I'm a veteran of 80's, 90's, and 00's Toyotas. I recently (three weeks ago) purchased a fabulous example of a '91 FJ80.
Nearly immediately after bringing the vehicle home, she began exhibiting a crank, no start after being properly warmed up.
I did some very low level testing myself, and determined that I was getting neither spark, nor fuel injector pulse when symptomatic. Without warning, the condition became a constant crank, no start at all times. I went ahead and replaced the EFI relay, and fusible links to no avail. I then proceeded to bang my head against the vehicle until I practically begged my friend who just so happens to be a Master Mechanic of 10+ years to take a look. He went and checked nearly everything you fine folks suggest here on the forums, as well as applied the diagnostic materials that ALLDATA provides those who are willing to pay.
He has found that there is no power or signal going to the supply wire for the distributor. He believes the ECU has failed, and I'm inclined to believe him.
So, I'm here to ask for any insight any of ya'll might have and to see who may have a good used ECU for sale!
Cheers
