I failed my smog test..I knew it would fail because of some engine issues..but my buddy and I wanted to see how bad the #'s were..so heres the deal. We did a compression test and heres what we found:

cylinder #1= 175 psi
cylinder #3= 180
cylinder #5= 180
cylinder #6= 170
cylinder #4=0
cylinder #2= 175

There was also gas on the #3 cylinder spark plug.. (which we are guessing we need a new fuel injector) ..for the cylinder we are thinking its...

I rebuilt my carb, and replaced some electrical parts on the pickup at the end of the summer. Of course I finished up the day I moved into a new apartment haha. Then I got sent to StL for 2 months for work. No truck = BOOOO! Oh, well it was fine. I got back last week, squirted some carb cleaner, jumped the battery and boom, it's running like a dream. I haven't had a chance to really drive it too much, just warm it up. I'm looking forward to winter and snow though haha. Now, back to browsing YT.

85 4runner sr5 still trying to post or ask a question . SO the front knuckle and birf are leaking ,will that make your front end loose ?Or is it ball joints and tie rods . thanks for any replies and info on posts

So i'm thinking of modding my fuel source.
I have been interested in a new fuel source.
So HHO Hydrogen Fuel cell Generetor is what I've chosen to do.
Anyone have any ideas or best kits to buy?
I found this company...looks good.

can the worm gear in the steering box be adjusted or does the whole steering box have to be replaced? i have ALOT of play in my steering wheel, from 12 o clock to about 6 o clock doesnt even turn the tires...... suggestions???

So I havent got to tear in to the Yota yet. Did fix tires and attempted to drive it home but it kept pulling to right and the passenger front tire is tilted. Upper part is out, lower is in. So got to check that before I can drive it. So its sitting at my moms. My father in law is gonna bring down his F350 and trailer and tow it back to my house for me when he gets back in town. Its crazy of all the car guys i know not 1 of us have a big enough trailer. So have to sit and wait. My wife said that...

Yes it is true. My little sister has been using my 86 Yota Truck cause her eclipesdecide that its fuel pump wanted to go out. Have to wait till she gets paid and then I will put it in so she can drive it. But she was using my Yota and was going home after give a friend a ride home and was about 1 mile from my moms house and a full grown brown bear comes out in the road. We live in a small town in Colorado and are very close to the mountains. The bears have been very bad. They have been getting in...

So the purchase of my house has really put a belt around my whole budget for a build. I am kicking myself for buying a house without a garage but price and back yard are right. I am starting the rebuild on my engine in my living room cause I figure i need to get that done before a girl wants to live in my house with me cause I know that would never fly. I bought a dvd on how to take apart a 22r from start to finish and I think I should be able to follow directions. The engine itself is a japan...

I just finished my first "easy" off-roading trip with this truck at the Silver Lake Dunes in Michigan. I have to say, it was a lot of fun. I came away with only two things to fix; 1: Passenger window jumped out of the track, 2: Vac. leak somewhere around the carb.

One of those is a quick fix, the other, not so much. I definitely think I am going to un-crank my torsion bars (PO's work not mine) and lift the front end proper. After the carb is fixed of course. On another...

i located a complete unmolested rear end drum t drum to replace the bent one. had it out in 2 hours .it cost 220 out the door.also found a sr5 mag for 40 bucks. before swapping in the 488s to the new housing i installed the spartan locker very simple install.the hardest part was holding the third in the vice for a makeshift stand to retorque the ring gear and bearing caps.it drives a little different not bad though.not too loud either.i havn't been offroading yet .now i need to get an alighnment...

I was hit by a semi truck this morning!the driver just came over as if i wasnt there .the lugs on his front axle caught my rear pas. wheel.the ride took me all the way round to the curb backwards,and ended on the sidewalk.i thought for sure my 4runner was totaled, but was suprized to see zero body damage!..the wheel was missing a piece as well as the tire.the driver side rear wheel has a good dent too maybe bent the battery shifted enough to yank the fuse box wire loose.put on the spare...

Just getting settled in my new 1986 P/U. I definitely have an itch to take it on a trip. An easy Offroading/Camping trip in Michigan next month, a Colorado mountain biking trip in the fall, and a winter Baja run are coming together. Brushing up on all of my off road etiquette, skills, equipment, accessories and favorite swear words.

I'm looking forward to getting out of the City/Burbs for a while.

I ordered the OME 3" heavy duty suspension lift from 4Crawler. I got the 4 shocks, the springs, the caster kit and the steering stabilizer.

At about 8:30 at night my buddy and I decided to see what was involved in installing it, and by 10:00 we had the front shocks and springs installed.

Installation was straight forward, We jacked up the frame, then pulled the tires. We compressed the springs, and they came out easy enough. Putting the springs back in required...

The Radiator leaking was a concern for me. I was able to patch it nicely with a Permatex Radiator repair kit.



While I don't consider this a permanent fix, this will probably hold much longer than...

My first priorities with this truck are to first make it MVA compliant, and then to make it a reliable daily driver.



I managed to AirCare it with no problems, and was please to learn that all the brakes needed were new bulbs.

I got the engine oil swapped...

I picked up this a 1990 RHD Landcruiser VX today. The previous owner was a kid who played with it, but didn't maintain it, so it's got a lot of little things that need work.



This is the "Bedcruiser" Model, so it has a fold out bed in the back, a sink, and a stove. I haul...

So my truck seems to let exhaust out everywhere it can. So I decide oh well that will be an easy fix a few gaskets a little new pipe n muffler and I am there! Well turns out the four bolts on top of the exhaust manifold where standard stripped out and pieced together with all sizes of bolts! I had to drill and tap all 6 holes that bolt to the head and the four the air rail bolts into. I then find out that there is was no gasket between the down pipe and the manifold. There of course was no...

I'm writing this as a memoir to look back at and hopefully giggle at my past.
Well to start off the past seven or so months have been tough. My truck burnt down and i lost it. The thought of rebuilding it crossed my mind but i went a different route for several reasons. I also quit smoking at about that time as well and to say the whole truck burning down was a trial by fire for my nerves is and understatement. I smoked for 15 years and was a pack to a pack and a half a day smoker. Cold...

i need 2 rear seat knobs for my 1993 4runner. the ones that you pull up on to make the back of the seat move down. mine are cracked and broken. or..... does anyone know where i can get a new back seat for it? preferably one from a 1992 model....

i have a 92 4runner which i can't smog because the check engine light is on. the code comes up for a knock sensor but everyone i have talked to says that unless its being eaten up by rats then it should be ok... which led me to believe that it was the computer instead. i sprung for a used one and it did nothing. any suggestions??

Well got the knuckle rebuild done. It took me about 12 hours in total to get it all done as the knuckles were real grimy and I dont have a parts washer so it was alot of scrub time. I repacked the bearings and replaced the rotors and brakes. For some strange reason when I tighten the lower caliper bolt it clamps the brakes closed I am not sure what that is about so for now I just put a two washers on it and that solved the problem. I am going to step up to a v6 set up soon anyway as I want to...

i just got my 3 inch body lift in the mail the other day and im planning on putting it on my 94 4runner this weekend. are there any tips that could help me out? this is the first time for me to put on a body lift and i just want to make sure it goes smoothly. thanks for the help!

I have not had enough money to purchase a weber carb so I found a carb online that was rebuilt a year ago. This is always a yeah right anything being sold runs the best. It was going to be better then what I had and only set me back 100 bucks. It came out of a 85 22r which was fairly close to mine but was missing one vacuum line near the top. Other then the rain and darkness coming in to quick install was a success and it is running much better!! Tonight I also rewired the license plate light....

im lookin to put a 3inch body lift on my 1994 4runner. will i need to use radiator drop brackets and will i need to modify the air intake? thanks for the help.....

When are they going to sell a diesel hilux in the United States?

I ve got a 93 extended cab im restoring, the truck has sat up for a while without a motor in it so i took the tank off to clean it up real good, well when i took it off the fuel lines broke about one foot away from the tank, the truck is a fuel injected 22re but i need to know if i could just use high pressure hose clamped to where it broke to the fuel pump instead of going threw the trouble of buying all new lines, bending them into shape and installing them, or trying to find them on a parts truck....

For those with the factory Aluminum wheels. You must tell the tire balance tech. that the wheels must be balanced with the cone mount to front. If not the wheels will be slightly out of balance at various speeds. I lived with this problem on occaision for the past 6 years.:guitar:

I have replaced the distributor cap, spark plugs, cold start valve, maf sensor, fuel filter, and air filter...I replaced the head gaskets on this truck and the guy i bought it from said it ran fine till then...I have checked for vacuum leaks but all i have found is the bvsv broken so i coupled those two lines together...Would the bvsv cause the truck to not want to stay running if it is broke. Any advice would be appreciated..:saw:

Has anyone ever seen this happen before, leaking rear differential through the steel hull on the back side which has to be a quarter inch thick steel, [approximate]. See attached photos.
I just bought this vehicle, took it for a test drive and found this happening. The rest of the vehicle is like brand new - it only has 95,000 miles on it.
This looks like a manufacturer defect. Does anyone think that I might get Toyota to replace the differential under warranty?
I purchased this...

83 Toyota 4x4!!! 70,000 original miles! 1500 bucks. I just dont have the money or time to do the rust repair that it needs. I dont want someone to ruin this one in the mud!

Hey all. I have an 85 with a 22re in pretty good shape. I plan it to be a large project and I'm still unsure on what directions I'm going to go with it. I plan this blog to kind of be an online journal as I repair and start a build up of this truck. I need to start on the repair side of it first. Fuel system seems to have a little trouble. I'm going to run into town today for some parts and try to get this thing running. Please feel free to comment and/or add suggestions or ask questions. I would...

Just put new head and crowler cam in my 22 re, done adjusted valves twice, still got noise, any ideas!
