    Stuck Odometer

    Well, was doing good but now I can't get the final assembly undone. There is a brass part on the right side that appears to come off for others- but no matter what I do I can't get this thing off- and afraid to break anything. I can turn the odometer and for sure it's stuck on the...

    FJ45 from Central America :: No VIN Plate

    My FJ40 VIN was on the front passenger's side frame in the wheel well! Took the Sherriff and I doing the inspection 10 minutes of looking before we looked it up online and found the location- and even then we had a bit of trouble locating it. I would think there is a chance this one may have...

    Should I run my FJ over the winter just to keep the fluids / battery / etc working smoothly?

    Yikes! I'm convinced. Heading out to the barn now to remove the battery! THANK YOU for the help because otherwise I was surely going to run it every 2 weeks on idle for at least 2 more months!

    Should I run my FJ over the winter just to keep the fluids / battery / etc working smoothly?

    Thanks for the reply. I'll be actively watching for any 60-degree days but not expecting any of those for a few months soon. If I run my heat my antifreeze boils out (lol, separate problem I am working on) and frankly the whole things smells like gas inside with the windows up (another minor...

    Should I run my FJ over the winter just to keep the fluids / battery / etc working smoothly?

    Hi guys, quick opinion question here- I bought my FJ40 in the fall and the guy I bought it off said maybe run it for an hour (even in idle) every few weeks through the winter to keep the fluids and all moving in the system. I asked a fellow collector friend (with different older cars) the...

    Stuck Odometer

    Hi guys, my FJ odometer spins the 10ths of a mile but then hangs up when it should roll the mile over. I'm not worried about regulation/legal at this point because the whole thing is a rebuild, but it would be nice to see how many miles *I* actually put on it... so would prefer it works. I'm...

    Can someone tell me where this wire goes?

    Really appreciate all the feedback guys. Thank you. Will try to work on it over the holiday- but yes it sounds like we found the culprit with the heater and radiator. And of course the wire to the winch lol.

    Can someone tell me where this wire goes?

    I've had the FJ for about 3 months and never seen a leak. This time the only difference was that it was cold out and I pulled the heat lever. I do watch the gauges (especially when I saw the puddle) and they show within normal range. So I am thinking this thing just doesn't have an expansion...

    Can someone tell me where this wire goes?

    Alright, I feel a bit dumb here on the wire... but after following it, it led right to the winch on the front! So clearly that's just a winch power cord for when I need to use that (aka not really ever lol). So case closed on that one- much appreciated. However, this was not all pointless...

    Can someone tell me where this wire goes?

    Hi Guys, I am 100% new to FJ ownership. Bought a decent condition '69 which appears to have an '80 engine in it. I'm not a purist, just love the car so I am happy with it. Drove it the other day and when I stopped all sort of antifreeze leaked out... I was told by previous owner that if you...
