Hey y’all. I’m Ian. Basically new here, used to lurk years back but was never really active. I’m a retired mechanic, and have had my Fj40 for about 20 years. It has sat a lot of that time. After not being registered for ten years, I’m getting her back on the road. Might ask some basic questions, as I don’t currently have a fsm available. Like, ported or manifold to the distributor? Thanks for having a look.
 
Welcome! We all love pictures so post some when you can. There are FSM online. An FJ40 should be child’s play for a retired mechanic.
I had a hard time getting logged in and it took me 10 minutes to figure out how to edit my profile… lol.
 
Ported … however that depends on your distributor if it’s advanced or retarded

Advanced … ported
Retarded … disconnect it and run mechanical advance only
It has two ports
