Looks great- about 80% of my cluster lights are out lol. Assuming you got new bulbs, did you go OEM or are those LED?

Thanks! They are Led these are for the backlights the gear indicator bulbs are different

Cleaned sugar out of my gas tank . Must have happened to previous owner. My 97 Fzj has been pinging since I rebuilt it and I was going to swap fuel pumps between my 97 and my 96 to see if a weak pump was causing the pinging. I found a new pump in the 97 cruiser (appears to be an oem pump) which I thought was cool until I noticed the sugar around the fuel sock and at the bottom of the tank. Luckily it appears to all have been collected in the baffled section where the pickup is. I drained the tank then vacuumed and wiped out the sugar. Really hoping my entire fuel system isn’t contaminated, as I already put in a new fuel filter and injectors while rebuilding the engine last year. Didn’t end up putting my 96 pump in it for fear of possibly damaging it.

How the F did sugar get in there? Someone sabotaging?

This occurs naturally with the use of green coolant. Tread lightly, it’s extra sweet smelling for a reason.

I scrolled back in this thread looking for a photo but can't find it. Do you have a photo of these LEDs installed? Would love to see it. Do they dim as well? Thanks

Pans on, new timing components on, head on with ARP head studs. Decent progress for a couple hours.

The 1FZ decal on the valve cover was used on 1993 only.

I'm aware of that.
Big mistake from Toyota to not include thru 97 here.

Wonder how many of those have you sold.

With my sons help, we add a new ARB front bumper and within 5 minutes of tightening the bolts we decided to modify it. Add a couple of cheap fog lights the were sitting around the shop.
