New owner of LJ70 (1 Viewer)

[gsebas]

Hello everyone,

I am a new owner of a LJ70LV-MNXW 1987. It’s in great condition except some electrical modifications that were badly done … since I got the vehicle, i changed the filter/oil, fuel filter , repaired broken wires for tail light and plate lights, modified side turn signal to support both turn and position functions as requested by my local registration office. I will soon change the timing belt…

Changing the fuel filter, i realised that the previous owner has cut the sensor wire at the base of the sediment retainer…I ordered a new one on partsouq hopefully the right one… but I have not yet found the receiving connector for the sensor. I hope the previous owner did not cut that one as well… if anyone knows where to look please let me know …

Welcome.
Nice showroom picture I guess we are all curious for some more pics.

I'm not overall familiar with the 2LT (I own a BJ73 3B), but probably the fuel sedimenters are identical. But you say your wiring is at the base (bottom) ?
At least the harness should be same. Wires are two: WB (white black) and GO (green orange). At my rig the connector comes out of the harness next to the firewall, together with the wiper motor wiring.
Here is a pic of mine. Maybe that helps.
Cheers Ralf

Thanks for the reply! I will look at it today and come back with more if I find the connector. In the mean time here are some more pictures…

Thank you for sharing the pictures. A really nice rig.
It always takes some time to learn about all the hidden secrets and flaws the POs left behind with such a rig and get those fixed.
Enjoy! Ralf
