what exactly does the compensator do? I have a 1982 BJ42 w/ a 3B. Also, how do you like the 13BT in your FJ40? More than plenty? Efficiency?

 

[Brewsterfire]

The compensator adjusts the fuel in accordance with elevation to reduce smoking and fuel consumption.

My 13bt was strong till I found out that 3 cylinders had approx 200 psi and on had 20 psi.

A lesson on making sure you get compression tested before spending a bucket of money on an import engine.

It is currently under going a full rebuild to do it right. It is at the machinist's right now.

It should be awesome power and fuel economy.

Good to know about the compensator, Thanks for the breakdown! Sorry to hear about the trouble with the 13bt. I am currently searching for a 13bt to upgrade the 3b. What price range should I be expecting for a running 13bt?

 

[Brewsterfire]

Anywhere from $4000-$6000, there was one on here recently but I think it sold.
