Fj62 EGR DELETE

[WhompinFJ]

As some of you may have seen in a recent post of mine, I brother the EGR hose on my 3f. I will still need to smog the cruiser next year, but I need a temp solution to get me by. I was planning on ordering the man a fre EGR delete kit, but I saw it was for a 2f. Does anyone know if this is compatible with the 3fe? Is there a different solution that I should be aware of?

Here's the one I am using on my 3fe: Toyota Egr Delete Kit 3FE 4.0

All that's needed is a cup plug for intake manifold and a threaded plug for exhaust manifold.

Before getting rid of all the vacuum lines, might want to take a look at this thread. FJ62 de-smog question...

All that's needed is a cup plug for intake manifold and a threaded plug for exhaust manifold.

What size is the threaded plug on the manifold (M26x1.5 it looks)? When I did mine I ended up using a cup plug on the threaded fitting cuz I couldn't figure out the thread size, or a source.

From my build thread. I tapped it out to 3/4" NPT and threaded in a stainless plug.

The tutorials suggest plugging the hole in the exhaust with a 3/4" NPT plug and that's what I did. But just for reference/curiosity that fitting that is OEM is actually a 26mm-2.0 compression union. The thing is that 26mm thread form doesn't even exist in the Machinery Handbook - jumps straight from 25 to 27mm. Maybe Toyota did this because it's emissions related and they wanted to make it tamper resistant.

It's an M26 thread.
The 2 plugs are available from tlcperformance.com.

Get the plugs here. There are some threads floating around with Dorman part numbers for these plugs but I ain't gonna say who posted those numbers cuz it's better to get stuff from this @FJ40Jim guy

@FJ40Jim, will the EGR threaded plug at www.tlcperformance.com fit the EGR port on the 3FE exhaust manifold? @Godwin

 

[FJ40Jim]

No, sorry, the brass threaded plug is for the 2F EGR connection.
The 3F EGR exhaust manifold plug is a large steel allen bolt. It also fits 75-76 2F exhaust manifold EGR connection, FWIW
The 3F plug still hasn't made it onto the webstore. Price is $10 for allen plug & crushwasher. $2 for cup plug into intake mani. $8 for PriorityMail. $20 altogether.

Mods: delete if this is too commercial.
Thanks!

That's a good deal on parts you know will work instead driving all over town to track down parts.

I need to hold off on ordering anything until I find out for sure that my spare 3FE exhaust manifolds can be installed on an early 2F cylinder head - casting number 61030.

Jim, do you have the 3FE exhaust manifold EGR threaded plug available? Need one, maybe two.

I've got a couple of the Dorman 14MM threaded brass hex plugs left over. Had to buy a box of them at the time I did mine.

Is that the Dorman 090-099 plug? Was about to order them but noticed Jim might have them, or similar.

Yup.
