Hello, Want to introduce myself and join in the discussions
My name is Tom Taylor I live on Martha's Vineyard and now own a 1982 BJ42 3B diesel Landcruiser. This is 3rd one the other 2 were
a new 1974 FJ and a 78 FJ. We used these as Beach Buggies for riding on the outer Beaches and Surf Fishing for Stripers in the 70s and 80s. They didn't live very long in this salt environment.
I have lots of questions pertaining to the Bj, parts availability
and it would help to talk to other Bj42 owners and know who you are. Rocky Mountain Cruisers played a big part in getting my rig
to its present state. We have a new frame, new suspension,
some Aluminum body parts and a mostly all original exterior and interior. Once I figure out how to post pics I will. Right now I have one problem thats over my head, I have lost the shut off fuel
function on the engine. I don't know whether this an electrical or motor problem and whether the key functions by energising it to
open allowing fuel into the injector pump, HELP!!!. I was readjusting the Aluminum Fenders and Skirts and had some of the wiring disconnected and may have caused this problem, can anyone direct me to what to look for? I won't post my phone numbers or email address just yet untill I know its Okay to do so.
Thanks for your help in advance.
