FJ40 Restoration (Episode 21) - New Fuel Injection

[@chuckpense8717]

Its a great video! It is a deciding factor for me wanting to install this Howell kit on my "76 FJ40. You make it look easy! Thanks for sharing this and I hope to see the second part of this installation soon.

coming along!! i did that job on my buddies 60 but we used a holly kit. great upgrade. Just throwing it out there that the header your using tend to warp and the gaskets then will leak/blow by/back fire etc. I would consider using a double gasket or one with more squish. Just a thought.

[@knuckle47]

Looks like I have a lot more work ahead of me than I initially thought. My fuel pump is inside the fuel tank

[@Fburch5]

Looks spectacular nice work! I'll use this as a reference as I'm suffering from vapor lock and believe it's caused by underhood temperatures. I plan to insulate the fuel line to prevent this.

Excellent job 👍

Jerod, thank you for these videos. They are very helpful. How did you connect the throttle cable to the TBI? Did you build a bracket or get an aftermarket one and which one? If you made it can you send a picture so I can replicate it? Thanks,

[@Jerod_Helt]

The stock throttle cable hooked directly to the TBI

Hello from Chile, I saw all the videos of this restoration, about the installation of the efi kit, what is gained with this kit? I imagine that power, the performance of fuel consumption in km/L is improved? (Sorry, I'm from Chile and we use this system) How has the experience been? thank you very much I liked your work

[@Jerod_Helt]

It probably gets better fuel economy but it’s mainly just to make it run better. With the efi it starts right up every time and idles perfect.

[@Pedro19869]

Does it have a map sensor if so where do you install it ?

[@joesixpack7551]

Great video - I've also got a '72 FJ40. I've gone back and forth on all the upgrades out there (P/S, Disk Brakes, headers, fuel injection, diesel swap, etc. etc. etc...) but I think the only upgrades I will do are adding two more under mount fuel tanks and possibly air conditioning. I won't be putting alot of miles on it but will be very remote with it so I need to triple the driving range between re-fuel. You should check into adding an S10 Chevy Blazer tank in front of the rear bumper. They are about 100 dollars - would be interesting to see how you would plumb the filler and route the lines, etc. After watching a bunch of these guys upgrading their rigs, I just scratch my head and ask why not just buy an 1980's or 90's rig - lol. I bought my FJ for the low tech/old school simplicity of it and the 'experience' of driving an old rig. I guess we all are different.

[@vsegura88]

What did you end up using for throttle cable? Any video or pics with final instal?

[@Jerod_Helt]

The stock cable hooked directly to the new throttle body👍

[@bloodybuzzardbindel3555]

What do you plan to do for an air filter? would you install a housing or just straight KN filter on the TB? I just picked up the kit recently and looking into options.

[@Jerod_Helt]

I’m gonna try to make and adapter so I can use the stock air filter housing. 👍

[@jairpenaloza521]

buen día ,estoy en COLOMBIA como consigo el kit?

[@stooucs]

Those original fuel/brake lines, how come they are so shiny. Bought new onss or polished the old ones? By the way, great work you are doing there my friend.

[@Jerod_Helt]

I cleaned them on the wire wheel and painted them👍

[@bryandahlberg1956]

Where did you get your replacement brake and fuel lines? Love the videos!

[@Jerod_Helt]

I just cleaned the old ones with the wire wheel and painted them👍

[@PERCORRENDOINDUE]

new wiring or you just fixed it? always great video

[@Jerod_Helt]

The Fuel Injection Kit comes with new wiring 👍

[@andra576]

I can't find fuel injection like yours in my country, if I want to use it so I have import it with expensive price.

This VACCUM PORT has the same function of the PCV VALVE?

[@Jerod_Helt]

The vacuum port just connects to the PCV valve

[@McHumaty]

@@Jerod_Helt yea, nice... is a part of the system.

[@Jerod_Helt]

Marcelo João the PCV and vacuum port are stock. Not part of the new kit

[@McHumaty]
