If you pull the forward center console off, you'll notice that there's a hollow space next to the useless cup holder under the ash tray. I wonder if it would make sense cut a hole in the plastic and recess a radio into that space. It might be tough to see there around the gear shift. Something I'm going to ponder.
Been working on the FJ60 the last few days prepping it for a 4Plus rear bumper. I was down to the cross member, had the rivets out and it was loose but just could not knock it out. I hooked up the 10K Warn on the 80 series and applied some serious pull to it. Still would not come loose. Finally noticed a couple of small tack welds that were impeding progress. Once the welds were dealt with the winch pulled it on out. If I'd noticed the tack welds to begin with I would not have had to utilize the winch on the 80.
Nothing like bringing a gun to a knife fight...

Check the classifieds, I want to say @South Texas 97 had a new one for sale
finally driving on the dark again. Yay winter.

So burnt dash bulbs driving me crazy. Did the d light last week. And did the 3 bulbs in the hvac yesterday. And moved the sec light down though it don’t work. And uncovered my battery indicator/charger port.

Just bought and installed a full replacement for mine off PartSouq. Even at $450 i was annoyed i had to replace it for an inner shaft seal leak. Seems like something that should have been serviceable.yeah, for the whole assembly: 19100-66020
the housing ((19235-66020)which has all of the corroded parts) is NLA
Nothing drastic. Loose steering, clicking sounds, etc. It just didn't feel tight at all.
I finally got these two pesky heater hoes replaced. Car is still running lean even though the smoke test doesnt show any vacuum leaks. I guess it's time to check the fuel delivery.
I see that I could put a fuel pressure gauge onto the fuel rail closest to the firewall, but that bolt looks so hard to get to. I'll check around these forums for tips.

Have you checked your O2 sensors? I was having rich/lean issues and my O2 sensors were out of spec.
Reading the FSM, the bank 1 sensor 1 changes above 0.55V and below .4V
I charted the LTFT against the engine load and it seems to rise with load. So it seems to run lean whenever I increase engine load like whenever I accelerate.
Have you unplugged them and check the resistance?
not yet. But how would the resistance compare when it's 40F outside instead of the 68F to check if its within range?
I don't think there would be but worth the check, I recall the limits should be 5.5-6 OHMs max.
What about your 2 coolant temp sensors? There is one that sends a signal to the ECM and the 2nd one sends a signal to the dash. The engine could be in an open loop condition, have you checked your intake hose for leaks? I know you said you did the smoke test but would it show a leak in the intake hose? I guess it depends on where you introduce the smoke too.

I checked the fuel system status and it eventually closes once the coolant temps warm up. I plugged the smoke adapter at the beginning of the intake hose, just after the MAF sensor because that's easy to break but it's recently replaced. I didn't try moving it around while the engine is running though because sometimes it won't reveal an issue until after the car starts moving. I'll give that another check.
Ok so I reset the fuel trims by disconnecting the battery and after getting the temp up to normal running, arojnd 176F or 80C, the fuel system won't close. stft and ltft are both 0 and not moving.
I tried driving it around and it would struggle and I hear some pops or woofs.
Did you have any issues with dimming with mix and match incandescent and LED? I’m doing the same thing and my lights arrive tomorrow. Thanks in advance?finally driving on the dark again. Yay winter.

I popped the hood and when I opened it a LIVE CAT jumped out and almost gave me a heart attack. That's it! I'm switching to Sanka!
No leds here. Been there done that in other cars. They simply don’t last. The dome etc I’m all for but not gauges etc. the 12v usb is wired from the og cig lighter.
Took it to work with me yesterday. She is my daily driver but when I came out of a clients warehouse after doing a quick inventory I thought this is a good picture of her in the AZ sunrise.
