What years had a carb cooling fan? I had a good friend who had a 79 that had the cooling fan. Mine is a 77 and did not have a fan.

 

[bobm]

78

 

[Megadoomer]

Carb fan is like taking a pill to solve a symptom another pill causes. Maybe you dont bolt your intake to your exhaust and you wont need to cool the carb.

Ford has done it and Chevy has done it and Toyota has done it, but they the only 1 with fan

 

[ToyotaMatt]

78

why is this a 78 and not a 79 or 80 ?

thanks for your input

78 most likely 1st year to have to meet emission requirements for US. Hence all the vacuumm hoses and the lack of air pump and unless its a Cali rig there is no cat converter. My 80 Mini 4x4 had an air pump and vac . No Cat converter, thats all that was required! My 78 Fj40 had all that . So it could be a 78 or above the fan and the Steel Snorkel ars the clue. Both present on the 40 and 55

FJ55 much like a FJ60 is a Wagon or SUV

not a pick up or MPV like A FJ40

so this all needs to be taken into account too

1 bottle is windshield fluid, smaller 1 is coolant overflow

See.

Happy Mr. POTATO

1 bottle is windshield fluid, smaller 1 is coolant overflow

After looking at that, I’m not sure that I’ve seen a coolant overflow that looked like that. Thought they were all round and the washer reservoirs were separate with their own mount.(?)

Rectangular overflow tank started in 09/77 but it's still separate from the windshield wiper reservoir.

this is the 85330-60030 double tanks set up FJ55 9/77-12/78
1/79-8/80 takes a even more rare double tanks set up using a full size vertical BLACK pump , with spout nozzel on it too ,

the hose spout is on the pump motor , not the bottle

both of these these set-up's obsolete now ,

ALL double tanks set up toyota vehical platform wide with this pump motor , changed to a washer bottle with spout for hos on the bottle

this is eye opening , because it means that 9/77- 1980 FJ55 actually now uses this set up below by de-fault , and TOYOTA simply NEVER did a propper parts superscession due to the Electrical Connection plug / connector detail ?

so now by default , this is now the 9/77 - 8/80 bolt on double tanks bottles set up !

all that needs to be done , is to inagrate the pump motor connector plug detail , to the FJ55 harness SOLID blue wire and blue / yellow tracer stripe wire .....

what are your washer fluid pump details on that oem correct set up ?

Carb fan is like taking a pill to solve a symptom another pill causes. Maybe you dont bolt your intake to your exhaust and you wont need to cool the carb.

Unfortunately, for folks living up north, bolting intake to exhaust is necessary so that gasoline powered engines will continue to run well into the sub zero temperatures.

Also why there is shielding around the carb and why most carbs had hot water flowing through their bases. Keeping that ball of heat around the fuel atomization system, which causes a temp drop at the venturi is literally a life and death necessity.

Fuel systems can and will freeze up and there is nothing like the sheer terror of being stranded with a non-operating vehicle at -30 F in a remote location.

I've seen the outside of my carb ice up on 1st start up
