What i miss? Im sure we don't see that may Admin or forum Moderators any more as the members we have appear to be better behaved these days. Dear old CSP and the like don't appear to be here anymore.

Thanks for the reply matt, looks like a job for a mechanic, way to many bits in there for me to destroy.

Hey team. Have a question regarding the wonderful Toyota 2uz-fe. my cruiser has developed a oil leak, appears to be comming from the front of the motor somewhere i suspect the cam shaft oil seal. Question i have is roughly how much would you expect to pay for a repair to have both seals...

i wish someone would give me a hard time via pm. i miss those days.

spoke to the owner about it on Sunday, he wants to fix it up as it's his little brothers car who lost his life in a tragic accident. so i will invest some time and help out with the re-build, will be a slow slog but will get there eventually.

it needs to see the inside of a wrecking yard. Fired it up and talk about issues. it's over heating, has no brakes, alternator isn't charging, spewing oil out of the passengers side valve cover, and the power steering rack is complaining all the time. The guy who owns this car is coming over...

This guy knows his ****. removed number 1, felt the compression stroke, sure was a strange feeling having the suck blow thing happening. found the compression stroke, removed the dissy cap, and bingo, out by 180'. so now number 1 is where number 4 should be and like wise everything else. and...

if it is out 180 is it a simple case of moving the leads to suite the new number 1 position?

way back last week we did the tcd check, didnt do the finger on the plug hole trick, but we did line up the mark on ballancer and did see that the dissy was pointing to where it was ment to be. so kinda assumed it was in the right position. The thing that sucks is there is no marks on the dissy...

i dont think the lines are backwards. would be pretty epic if they are. fuel goes into the passanger side fuel rail first, then flows out at the pressure regulator, one hose is long, other is short before they hit the steel pipes.

You know I'm actually not sure. I haven't looked at the rear of the beast. I'm tied up with work stuff for the next few days. I'll check this out on Saturday.

im starting to lean towards pump myself, im just looking around at the moment to find somewhere that hires out pressure testers so i can test the fuel pressure, when the car turns on (reds come on) you can hear hte pump, it's rather quiet. when you remove the fuel line before the regulator on...

when u say vacumm line. Is it on the drivers side at the rear of the fuel rail? And if so where does it vanish to.

Some one has lent on the top of the body where cruise and throttle cables meet now it wont close to normal position. Cause spring is shagged

All are as its ment to be. Still not firing. Could a busted throttle body have anythibg to do with it perhaps? Now clutching at straws.

no, i haven't checked for error codes, always thought that it had to be running to log any faults. i will read codes and see what it says after i get home today from workies. The history of this car is that it belongs to a friend who has a special place in his heart for this car. we would...

well, i must apologize for the delay in getting back to every one, life has been very very hectic. So i now have the car in the yard and have had the lovely pleasure of replacing a few things. 1. the starter motor solenoid failed on me, yay so replaced that, so now it at least rotates. 2...

sorry team, ive been caught up with my land cruiser, i havnt looked at this car yet. History of the car is that it is a auto, there is a guy who is looking at it, they claim to have spark, i dont think they have been smart enough to look at injector pulse, or fuel system. i was going to check...

Hi there team, I though I would put this out to the team for discussion before I take the beast to the mechanic with my bottom ready to be stretched. I will give the best description I can in as much detail as possible. what my wonderfull v8 is doing is upon start up when cold (i.e. a good...

its not a problem, we are looking up upgrading from what we have to a 100 series, i think they look good, so was after a bit of info about the v8 and is it a good motor and box? and what are the little things i can expect to see over the years that can go wrong

well, been such a long time between drinks, haven't posted in close to 2 years. does anyone out there in the wider JC community have any experience with the 100 series v8 land cruiser?

wonder how many killer wasps that thing gives out.

In most cases it is illegal to provide advice to a end user, i.e. it is illegal for me to provide any form of repair advice on any electrical based product or fixture. could be the same with building and plumbing but im not 100% sure, is a good idea though. might be good for other trades/services.

took a fair bit of abuse before it stoped, wonder what was originaly wrong with it. sounded horible.

my dear old dad had the exact same thing happen to him in here in the smart state, they pulled him up saying his checker plates didnt reflect the light, and questioned him to see if they were painted or covered with some sort of a reflective thingy, long story short, qld transport are looking...

that looks like your areial cable, you can simply cut and put some f type connectors on the end, or solder, but for better quality you would be best replacing from head unit to ariel. it wont affect your radio turning on.
