Oooh, I was wondering what that clamp was supposed to look like. Thank you for posting those pics! I just have a generic hose clamp! . I am going to see if I can have a new one 3D printed. I dont think the clamping force needs to be that much.

Cool! Let me know if you need some measurements. Or if you need to borrow it haha!

Pulled the oil bathe housing. There's some sort of foam household weather stripping being used as a cushion. Definitely not rated for fuel/oil.

There's evidence of an old sticker on here but I don't think I've ever seen one that is from Toyota. And I can tell this was some sort of paper backed.

There was a good half inch of sludge in the bottom. And some shiny bits.

 

[rainingagain]

Seems to be a theme, but it's been over tightened and stripped a bit.

I cleaned them up as best I could. Not bad.

I grabbed some filters from Mr T. I have an old one from 1992. The good ole days. I decided to do a comparison. Pretty much the same.

I apparently didn't take any pics of my old lines, but they were roached. I had my old friends at Nebar make me up a new pair using my old fittings.

Hmmm. Just noticed this. Looks like my block drain is leaking.

 

[rainingagain]

Once cleaned up, the threads look good. I was afraid of what was hiding under that sludge.

Got it out!

 

[red66toy]

Looks good! Just needed a cleaning

Toyota part is still available from Mr T for around $20 for future reference.

Cock Sub-Assembly, Water Drain

 

[rainingagain]

While the drain cock was out I stuck a screw driver in the block to get an idea of what's in there when I flush it.

It's pretty blocked up unfortunately. As soon as I get the coolant system sealed up, I'll try a flush.

I'm scratching my head a bit on how this oil filter assembly goes back together.

Mine went, starting from the bottom, o-ring outside the housing up against the nut on the guide assembly (that's what it's called in the parts diagram), then on the inside it went thick rubber washer -> spring -> steel washer -> filter -> thick rubber washer -> collar -> cap -> aluminum washer -> top bolt.

1965 parts diagram seems to show no outside o-ring but starting from the inside of the canister letter T, called a "gasket" -> spring -> metal washer -> thick rubber washer? -> filter -> letter G, also called a "gasket" -> letter F which is another steel washer -> cap -> aluminum washer -> top bolt.

And then there are a bunch of references to this guy. This seems to match what I have parts wise. But no lower o-ring and the thick rubber washer is on top of the steel washer.

I can't see how it would seal at the bottom without that o-ring. Also mine showed signs of leaking near the bottom. It could have been the roached line but I want to get this right.

My guess right now is that it goes, from the bottom, outer o-ring -> spring -> steel washer -> thick rubber washer -> filter -> thick rubber washer -> collar -> top cap -> aluminum washer -> top bolt.

I have a spare in the garage I can go peek at in a bit. I feel like it had an exterior bottom rubber o-ring.

Those oil lines turned out great. I have a cloth covered fuel line with banjos on my 67 Stout. Think they could rebuild it? Are they local to you?

Yeah, they are in Ballard specifically. Really nice guys. I've had them make well over a thousand hoses for me without issue (I used to work on heavy equipment and operators loved to blowout hoses). I think @red66toy also had them do his fuel lines.

I'm not sure if they ship though. Give them a call!

Thanks! That's how mine was when I pulled it apart so that's how it'll go back together.

Yeah they made my oil lines for the 40 and new AC lines for my FJ62. Love that place! Top notch stuff.

What primer and paint are you using as you refresh these crusty parts? Thanks!

Nothing fancy but some or all of these depending on the material and condition. It sucks, but 90% of repainting is prep. Cleaning and masking. I wipe everything down with lacquer thinner or wax and grease remover right before painting. Even the most expensive PPG paint won't stick if you don't prep the surface. And I try to be patient because obviously I want to install these right away. Gotta lay on the top coat nice and thin and do multiple coats. Then give it some time to cure. For me, it's the same process with a sprayer or a rattle can.
