AS I pulled into the parking lot at work Friday night, I noticed my odometer. I was nearing a milestone. As it is my wife drives our 4Runner regularly and I occasionaly. Anyways, when I got off of work, I drove 3 miles and reached 200K. I ended with a total of 200,015 miles when I got home. This is the first vehicle I have owned that has reached this many miles. I am pleased to say that she is running great and shows no sign of slowing down.

Very impressive and good to hear coming from another '96 owner.
200k is no joke.

Congrats! I plan on putting 300,000 on, mine before any major parts replacement occurs.

I bought it a few years ago with about 159K. I do not know the service history, so at about 165K I changed the timeing belt, water pump, the two bearing all while I had the furl injectors pulled for servicing. Other than that all I have done is the standard oil changes and tune ups.

I reached a milestone today also on my '93 4Runner. 186,411 miles!!! I know that doesn't mean much to you guys in the states, but on the north side of the border, that means 300,000kms. Still running strong.

Awesome! How much of a difference did the fuel injector servicing make?

kmchby76

Well, considering that I had 2 bad ones and I was misfiring all over the place it actually made a big difference. I was gonna have my 4Runner down for awhile (for fuel injectors) so I decided to do preventative maintance (timing belt) to be safe. But overall it helped. I still average about 16 -16.5 mpg.

awesome. my '97 just hit 205k yesterday, it was great to roll over that mileage after just completing an oil change and rotor swap.
