also...my land cruiser takes leaded petrol.  As it is at the moment, we have to buy some stuff from the service station and add it to unleaded petrol.  Is there any permanent solution for this, and approximately how much does it cost?


cheers

You can run unleaded it and it will really not make a difference.

another question...the car has a bit of a hesitation when you take off.  It takes off for about a second, then theres nothing, as in no power, then it takes off again after about another second.  


cheers

Probably a bad accelerator pump on the carb.

hi again...can you put some form of power steering mechanism onto the old land cruiser?  Do they come as kits to install or what?  If so does anyone know wat kind of costs we're talking?

cheers
