What year FJ40? The windshiels washer reservoir and pump on the left fender.

I'm assuming you have a 1970 by your Handle (@70fj40). It goes to the VSV (fed emissions for 1970)
Yes, 1970. Not a California model to my knowledge. Firemanj92 I think you are correct. Same wire colors and plug. Never have seen that part before.
Hobart is owned and made by Miller.

Ok, so this isn't perse what I did to the cruiser but my son and I spent the last week working on an old vintage Honda generator that's going to be old school bling for my truck. Thing starts up on the first pull still. Almost as reliable as my 40. This really is a sickness.

Just FYI, this info isn't very accurate. The author even admits he needs to "re-vamp" the article in the comments below.
Just got these bad boys in today! Can't wait to install them, gonna have to wait a little bit as I'm going out of town for a few weeks.

Believe a lot people know what they are. Anyone who has a FJ40 up to 1/75 their cruiser had them when it was sold in the US. Depending on what model could be a little different.

I worked on the vacuum operated 4WD. It was taking about 2 minutes for the 4WD to engage after pulling the dash knob. Mark A. (@65swb45) sent me a rebuilt vacuum actuator that is a thing of beauty. After then shearing off a bolt in the nose cone, I replaced the whole nose assembly. Orange FIPG and gaskets. What do you know, now it works almost instantaneously. For anyone else facing slow 4WD activation, I also blew compressed air through the vacuum terminal block (or whatever it is called) on the driver's side of the firewall. It seemed like it was restricting the flow of vacuum to the switch on the passenger side firewall. Thanks to @65swb45 and @Poser for all of their gracious help in answering my questions. Also replaced an after market CSF radiator that PO had put in with a 2F OEM Toyota radiator from City Racer. For anyone contemplating this, Roger (@Racer65 ) does a really good job of packing so that the radiator arrived undamaged.
drug my parts vehicle home...
Some sellers on ebay think those are some sort of unicorn farts. I saw a set of rusty ones for $275.
Edit: My memory failed me. $335.

Alternator bearing was squealing like a pig this morning, I may have over tightened it a couple months back. Only 5 years old and still charged fine. Put Duralasts lifetime warranty to the test and got another for free. It's too shiny for my grubby engine bay. 
And “drool”…
