Carb rebuilds can really bring a motor back to life again. There are a couple of guys names you'll see come up repeatedly that do excellent carb rebuilds for a small fee if you're not carb inclined.
It is possible to take the fuel injection and head off of a 3FE motor and transplant it to your 2F, essentially making it a 2FE. Not nearly as simple as a carb rebuild. Again, lots of info can be had in a search.
Hope that helps!

There's a good thread to get you started.

The only carbs I'd ever rebuilt before was lawn-mower carbs and a 2-cycle 250cc dirtbike carb and I had no problem rebuilding the Carb on my 60. I was a little worried about getting the throttle linkage hooked back up right, but it ended up being easier than I thought.

Im just like Gabbo but i think that the all the hoses will be hard to hook back up!
Get the 2F motor FSM if you're gonna do it... There are a lot of little things to miss in the carb rebuild if you don't have a good reference.
But I let Mark Algazy (see my sig line) do mine and it runs great. He takes carbs by mail. Turnaround is about a week with mark.
Also Jim C (FJ40jim) is another Carb Magician and an avid MUD member.
Both guys have tricks of the trade (i.e. getting secondaries to open sooner), that mere mortals like you and I will never know.

I've never rebuild a carb but have read enough on here to know it's kindergarten stuff compared to fuel injection conversion.Hey guys i was just wondering how hard is a carb rebuild on a fj60 and would it worth looking into a fuel injection transfer.

I'm desmogging so all those hoses are like second nature to me. (Just need to cut out a block off-plate wOOt!) I marked the ends of the hoses with colored sharpies then took pictures just in case though.
