Sorry I didn’t get back to you Chris. When I got your message, I immediately had this sinking feeling. I know I have several of each of those lights, but they have no permanent home on the shelves. I know they were one of the first things to get boxed up before I got rid of my old front counter, and of course I have no idea which box they ended up in.:bang:
 
I couldn’t get my switch loose to pull it out without breaking something so I pulled my gauge cluster then reached behind the light switch and pushed it in and rotated it then it just popped out.

Here’s a pic of the burnt out bulb and a pic of where the bulb is held in. That was my spare light switch, which i actually ended up trading for the dash light and heater light.

No worries Mark, i know how it goes!

I hate to bother you with small orders like that anyway. All good!
 
Great looking rig and nice photo!
 
Mud, Need some help!

I've been driving my 77' FJ40 w/ it's rebuilt 2F and FJ60 Distributor for about 4K miles now without issue. Today I go to start it up, it runs just fine, then it craps out. I'ts NEVER died out. Usually it idles like a sewing machine.

Next, it won't start... won't start with choke in or out.

I hold the throttle down to full throttle, then it starts.

NOTHING has been changed by me, however, obviously something has changed...

I can get it to start and run but it runs very roughly and won't idle. Since i can get it to run, i'm assuming it's got fuel. (Fuel window shows fuel too).

I'm leaning towards some sort of timing issue, but I haven't made any changes or done anything to it. Any ideas on this?
