This is FAVORITE VIDEO EVER. After a 4 year rebuild I did on my fj40.. I can commensurate with this experience and it's reassuring it not just me!!!!!!
Starting my 75 FJ40 install a few days ago…. Waiting on the coolant sensor adapter for the top of the head. I can visualize every step of what you’ve done now by just gazing into the engine compartment. By the way, that little 3/8” drive Milwaukee impact gun came in real handy for pulling the fuel tank. Using an in-tank Mosley pump. Great enjoyable video my west coast inspiration friend
Righty Tighty Lefty Loosy LOL .. I was praying you didn't strip it the whole time 😂 Great Episode.. I learned that the 1F intake manifold works on 2f 🙌🏼
After over a year of watching you say “lefty loosey, righty tighty” and flail, I will offer what fixed it for me. Clockwise drives forward, counter clockwise is reverse.
He is clearly an empty shell of a man without you. And, there was an alarming amount of elephant noises in this episode. Please come back soon and help restore some decorum.
Ha, she's helping if anything. I did more research than usual with this install and it shows... but Rachael is probably what has kept me out of the hospital so far. She's my partner on this!
Quick question, the install of temp sensor, has it leaked at all? I was just informed those threads are not NPT but British Pipe Thread, very close on pitch but not 3/8 NPT. There is an adapter for the head and the sensor on redline cruisers.
Hello big fan of your videos I just had a question about your cruiser. Does it have the 1F or 2F? I’ve got a 74 with the 1F and just ordered the Holley Sniper kit and I was wondering if you did have the 1F was the kit from Mosley complete? I’ve seen on Red line where they sell the cleaner group adapter for the 1F that mounts to the sniper.
You should check out installing riv nuts with just a bolt that fits it and a larger nut around it and 2 wrenches. One tightening the bolt to compress it and one on the large nut to keep it straight. It is easier to get them in tighter places and keeps them straight.
Glad you started on the Sniper install for me to watch and learn. I literally LOL when you dropped the gasket! BTW, where would a man find one of those O2 sensor pre-drilled flanges?
The O2 sensor I used came with the kit from Mosley. I stopped by an exhaust shop when I got the header and had them weld on a "bung" for me. Totally glad I did that.
Not sure if that’s a one wire or two wire sensor, but don’t put plumbers tape on one wire sensors, they Earth to the block through the threads ;) That was the drain bung for the block, located at the bottom, which is why it still had coolant in it
He who finds a wife finds a good thing and obtains favor from the Lord. Pro 18:22. While I enjoyed every minute of this episode, Rachel's absence was noticed. You two make a great team. Keep it up man! You're getting there!!!
