YO!! 62'ers!!! This month, I gleefully added to the LC collection, an 88 FJ62. Strong rig, no rust, all stock. 213K miles. I'm working through the rig replacing missing and worn out parts with the goal of getting the 3FE engine running at its highest potential. Most parts that are specific to the 62's are all VERY hard to find, A LOT of online searching, and a lot of $$$.
Where I have failed, is to find a replacement cold start injector, OEM part number 2326069026. The one I have appears to be in need of replacement. However, given that I have been completely unable to find this part, new, refurbished, or aftermarket, and given the materials used to manufacture this part.....I suspect my only path forward is to rebuild it the one I have. However, again, I cant find any guides to rebuilding this C/S injector. Any suggestions as to a source for a replacement part, or opinions on rebuilding the one I have???
Also, can anyone educate me on the function of this part? My understanding is that under cold conditions, and when the cold start injector switch (OEM part # 89846220010) is engaged when it senses low coolant temp, this part injects fuel directly into the air intake manifold. If this is correct, in simple terms, this part acts as a primer of sorts. If this is this case, is it at all possible to use a more recent OEM part that functions in the same way? I suspect that the functionality is not overly sensitive to the volume of fuel injected.
Any advise is appreciated!!
