I use whatever generic brand of 90-weight gear oil is in the 55 gallon drum in the barn, Pennzoil I think........ In the TCs, axles, and manual...
I'd replace the mechanical unit with a solid-state one, personally. I know on the old tractors, the rebuilt mechanical regulators never last. :(
Ever try naval jelly? Seems to me like it saves sandpaper/wirewheels, but I've never done the math.
Hmm, I thought I had cleaned out down in there pretty good, but I'll try scraping more aggressively..... This engine supposedly only has 10,000...
So I put plugs (and other stuff) on the Heep yesterday. Discovered some oddities. The plugs that were in it were Autolite 26s. The place I...
Not today, but sometime last week I drained the puke-sludge out of the gearbox and TC and replaced with fresh gear oil. Delicious 50-year-old...
I only have synchros on 2nd gear. X_x Was hoping that the puke-sludge that I drained out of the gearbox had them jammed up, but after a week of...

I need to buy some parts (or maybe a new distributor, if it's some kind of Omix junk), but I can't figure out what it is exactly. There's no tag...
Later today I went to visit a neighbor who has a better machine shop than I do. Apparently I had PB Blasted the distributor enough. I put a pipe...
Thanks. I was looking at that conversion, too. I probably don't know what I am talking about (I usually don't, lol), but I don't like the idea...
Today I decided to set my timing before heading to church (gotta get those greasy thumb prints all over the hymnal pages, yanno). I discovered...
Ah very good. Ball-peen massages are one of the few things that I am good at. :D Thank you, sir.
Howdy folks. The Ross steering on my mostly-stock F134 1966 CJ5 is worn out to the point of being junk, and a rebuild kit didn't do much for it....
Alrighty, here's the crappy video. Sorry for rambling so much... [MEDIA]
Just finished reinstalling it. I made a little jumper so that the big input terminal of the Toyota solenoid powers the S terminal, so I am still...
Ahhh! Very very interesting. Thank you, sir. I will rewire it tomorrow evening and report back. I really appreciate the advice!
I apologize for resurrecting an ancient thread, but I just tried this and it didn't work.... The Toyota bendix apparently doesn't pop out enough...
