was on the phone with CruiserDan re: service manuals and he told me that all of the dealer service manuals should be purchased from Toyota Motor Sales at: 800-622-2033. be prepared to be on hold for a while.

for the 60 or 62 the operator may tell you (as she did me) there is only one manual available and that is the owners’ manual… you must ask individually for the Repair Manual for the 2F (or whatever your engine is… the 2F is $ 24.61) , Chassis and Body (FJ60 is $ 59.79) and the Emissions (think she said ’81 for 2F is $ 10.32). All of these are plus freight – UPS ground and takes 7 – 10 days to the east coast.
 
Hey,
Great info...thanks.

Chicago
 
The 1980 2F manual is Pub no. 36104E, the 1984 Land Cruiser Chassis and Body manual is 36262E, and The Repair manual Supplement for Chassis and Body FJ60 series is 36274A. 1981 2F (US/Canada) Emissions Manual Pub No. RM36043

I have those manuals. I believe they are not the ones that toyota mechanics use as these manuals don't address removal/install of intake/exhaust maniforld (my current problem). Can anyone comment on this?

Does anyone know how to get the factory tech manuals?

These are the same manuals as the dealer techs use. What is the problem you are having?
 
I ordered the chassis and suppliment this morning to complete my set.
 
Well, I'm not sure if I have them all, though I believe I do.

As an example, the carberator sits on top of a combined intake/exhaust manifolds. There is no write up on the required flatness off the manifold interface to the head. Also, I could not find any reference to the gasket which i believe resides on the mating surface between the two manifolds. There should also be some reference to bolt size for joining the two manifold halves for torque reasons.

If I missed something, please specify the toyota tech manual part number (should be lower right side of manual cover) as well as page number. I can then compare to mine.

36104E - 2F engine manual make 3-15 for Maniflold warpage.

There are actualy 3 parts for the gaskets between the intake and exhaust manifold. Two gaskets, one heat riser insulator (see http://www.sor.com/sor/cat044.tam?xax=8168&page.ctx=cat044.tam ). SOR also makes a nice improved insulator. I beleive the bolts are 3 12mm from the top and 2 10mm bolts from the bottom.

OlympiaFJ60,

I actually have the 2f fsm and did not see the manifold warp spec. Thanks for pointing that out.

Regarding the insulators, do any of the manuals point those out. If not, I would suspect that the Toy techs have a more detailed guides for all the systems. If so, that would be nice to have.

I believe the FSM's we can get are the actual Factory Service Manuals the dealers use. I have never seen anything different at my dealership. '93 and newer they don't even have them in paper form. Check out http://techinfo.toyota.com/ for all newer vehicles. This is what the dealers use now. Requires a subscription but has lots of info. Perfect for any small shop that services lots of Toyota vehicles. Similar to GMs SI (service information) but available to the public. The insulator and gaskets show up in the parts catalog. For the bolt torque spec, I think that is why they have the generic table in the back of the FSM.
 
Ok, I was down at the stealer today. You are correct in that the dealer doesn't have any different manuals. However, I did get a looksy at there computer based system, and it didn't appear to have much more detail then the printed fsm.

I guess this closes out this thread. Thanks all

The 3 top bolts are of 2 different sizes. I think the oddball is a little longer than the other two, as it goes thru the thickest part of the intake manifold (between the carb and block). Probably doesn't matter all that much.

I think you're expecting too much from these manuals...........

YES these are the same ones the techs use..............

NO it doesn't tell the tech what bolt goes where or the specs of the bolts

If he needs to know about bolts he goes to Parts and get 'em there(no specs tho)

there is a bolt torque chart in there somewhere(usually in the back)

As far as the 'required flatness' of the manifolds(already answered in a previous post) I would think perfectly flat would be best. If it's warped at all it should be machined. Toyota does list a spec for that but I wouldn't even think to look for it.
