Guess what?
That's right. This video is about replacing a starter motor. A notoriously difficult to change starter motor, all condensed into a 10 minute video! How good, right?
Wrong. It's a horrible job, takes a long time, and needs to be done right so you only have to do it once. This video is how to do it once.
Also, the algorithm will hate this video because my last one didn't do well (who knew nobody likes april 1st sanding videos). So like, comment and subscribe to help the algorithm... even before this video premieres!
That's all. Subscribe, Press the things. Buhbye

Hahaha, I completely accept your footwear for the pressure washer, love it.
im a 1st year auto electrician, ive just done one of these on an ex mine spec 79. im getting joy out of watching other people suffer doing it
If you used ugga duggas on the reassembly. You're fired
So , little old grandma here.
Got an 80 series Landcruiser 4 weeks ago. Newbie at all this 4x4 stuff.
Changed the starter motor a couple of weeks ago.
Soooo easy.
Recondition the original one and keep it as spare.
That V8 is terrifying.
It's not so bad since you can combine it with general maintenance like an intake clean
I don't own a VDJ, I don't plan on owning one any time soon but found this video entertaining.
Haven't used 'ugga dugga' since high school lol. Such a good slang word.
Did almost the same job on my 76, bar the replacing of the starter motor, a few weeks back. Soooo many pipes and stuff needs to come out to get the inatkes off for a clean. A tip, and just for a second, a old dishwasher makes a great parts washer. They are cheap to pickup second hand and 65-70C temps and some dishwasher soap do a excellent job cleaning off grease and grime.
This. But why buy an old one when you have one at home? The whining only happens if you're found out
Patience is a virtue!!
Have dreaded the day my starter fails in my 76 but now I feel better (maybe) because I'll pay someone else to replace it.
Top video as always Matt & full of laughs
See you in the next one 👍
The starter location inside the engine valley and the Alternator at the bottom of the motor was two factors that influenced my decision to get a 2.8 Troop carrier
Better than the other way around I guess. At least bump start is an option with an easy alternator swap
@@ridiculousthings4x4 I like the starter motor where I can hit it with a big hammer if needed has saved me walking in the past
Good video
I learned long ago it was far easier to take the extra twenty minutes to remove the bullbar and take the front wheels completely off and sit it on the disc rotors when doing major engine surgery on a lifted 4x4.
Yeah this was the original plan but I opted not to for the sake of coolant retention. But we all saw how that turned out 🥺 it was all held in until the EGR was removed, then the air got sucked in and the coolant went everywhere
Makes changing a fuel filter on a Jeep look simple.
1:36 hAhaha
Bare foot pressure washing, living on the wild side 😊
Toenails grow back
I want the video now goddamnit!
I like how this guy can change a vdj starter motor in 10 minutes, but toyota wants a days labour....
You know that scene in the matrix where Trinity gets shot and neo enables noclip mode to get it out? Yep...
How many times during this process did you contemplate taste testing 3phase?
All of the times. Especially my spine and inverted knees
Any drama's with re-using the injection lines?
Thoughts on mystery plates in controversial pipes versus removing the cooler entirely?
Toyota states 5x reuse provided you torque them correctly. Do not overtighten them. As for moving the fart inhaler, it's plumbed into the cooling system, so I left it for simplicity. The only reason to remove it would be saving a couple of kg, so would be a bit pointless.
Pls bully more TH-camrs ❤
Open to suggestions
I distinctly noticed the blanking of the blanking..........
You must be mistaken, sir.
Wow what fun
It's gunna be a bit easier with the new 2.8L...
That'll rile up the fan boys 😂
I've ordered a new 2.8L 79, should be arriving in a couple of months. Couldn't believe how good the little 2.8 drove, way better than my Troopy V8. Hopefully it'll last a couple of hundred thousand KMs, and after that I don't care because I'll probably be dead!
I'd probably be most keen to see a comparison between an auto converted V8 vs a 2.8. or manual vs manual. Although it does sound like an impressive engine so far, hopefully there isn't a catch.
hahaha have fun with that! i not long ago did my 76 series starter and helped a mate with hes 200 as well. not fun! make sure ya cut some of that foamy shit away so the water actually has a chance to drain away. bloody toyota 🙄
It was... delightful.
@@ridiculousthings4x4 i read that in your voice
How much would this cost if you had a good mechanic do it ? 😢
Does such a thing exist?
@@ridiculousthings4x4yes cost does exist
I thought I was the only one with 70 series Land Cruiser and a TJ Jeep. difference being I luv my little Jeep
You know what would be cooler? Swapping your 70 series for my jeep 😏
The design of the VDJ is a ridiculous thing.
If the shoe fits
Another good reason to avoid these vehicles. What a joke of engineering, plus the bonus alternator placement, then there's the narrow rear dif and the 1970s interior and leaf springs etc etc. But they are so tough, aren't they?
Yes they are tough.
I've had this car for about 100,000km and this is the only issue it's ever had. It took a while, sure, but any V8 by nature will have either the starter or the alternator in there by design.
Wait, what!! You hang shit on jeeps all the time for being poorly engineered and you have to do what to change a starter on a Toyota? Maaaate 😂😂
A once in 250k item vs general service items is a very different comparison. Jeeps still suck 😏
