@geezer101 thanks! Im not exactly sure what the previous owners mechanic did to it to in regards to removing smog equipment.
After dealing with smog on my old 1985 Landcruiser I decided to just get it "passed" and then start researching the carb and smog stuff.
Im leaning towards a webber carb to replace the Mikuni.
@xboxrox, yeah that could be a mixture of smog, haze and smoke in the back ground. There is a small crack on the dash but nothing bad. A few months back there was a tree that landed on the bed and dented the passenger side pretty good. I'll get some more detailed picts up this week.
So as the truck sits now. It idles very high when its cold. After its warmed up and I come to a stop it doesnt seem to want to come down in idle most times. I'll let the clutch out partially and then the RPMs will settle at a lower speed. I'm going to attempt to adjust the carb, any how-to's would be welcome. From what I read is that ethanol gas really messes with these carbs if they sit for too often, and that is one thing this truck has done quite often. HA
Anyways, yeah Im back to still thinking I will just switch out the carb for a webber. I feel like a webber will run better and cleaner than how this truck is running now. What do the the Mitsubishi aficionados think?
My back ground is mostly 80's toyotas.
