finished giving my fj a service

[nurse]

finally got round to riding my fj today not ridden it for a few months due to it needing a major service, spent the last few weeks in the evenings doing a few jobs on it... valve clearances, new collector, cleaned and oiled pods, cleaned calipers, new spark plugs, balanced carbs, replaced carb diaphragms, fitted dynojet needles, fresh oil and filter, new back tyre, chain oiled.

 

can't wait to get out for another ride.

You mentioned a new collector box, I think I read on another thread you have had some issues with it.  What did you go for in the end? Did you get your issues sorted what did you have to do in the end?

How about the best of all worlds; Steel Header Lock Nut

It is a metal lock nut with a flange...

still trying to sort that out after fitting that shite delkavic box currently waiting for a second hand original box to arrive off ebay. then i may get the delkavic box cut and welded so it fits properly using the second hand original one as a pattern. at the moment i can only fit aftermarket race cans with the delk box fitted. no good for oe ones.
