I am putting my 3.4 out of my 96 4 runner into my custom built buggy I have pulled the intire wire harness and now stumped I know I can order a wire harness to do what's needed I am way over budget as is and already soaked 90k yes ninety thousands into this and 1870 man hours. So I need to do the wiring myself any and all help would be fantastic. Thanks

Big Trav.

A little more info would be helpful. I'm not really sure on what exactly your asking help for.

sounds like he wants to be spoonfed on how to create a stand alone harness to run the motor.

You spent 90k on a buggy build and decided to use a 5vz to power it? You can get an LS for under a grand and then find all the swap parts you could dream of online for cheap.

WoW this is a great forum, way to represent this site, what a prick!

To be fair big trav. We have a whole section to motor swaps.. search there? did you search? This it nothing new, and has been covered a lot. People get mad when the same/similar questions are asked every day. Read the rules, read the stickies. Its all there.

Help us help you. Were not mind readers. You want to strip down the wiring harness correct? what other accessories are you running? Auto or 5 sped tranny? Any lights? swaping the whole dash? ignition? Any wiring in the buggy now? Start by finding a wiring diagram online ( free Factory service manuals can be downloaded if you search) then trim down what you dont need.

Lets see this 90k buggy.

Bugg pics?

Was actually 100% serious. I would just go with an LS series motor for a project like this in a custom buggy anyways.

Gonna get way more bang for the buck.

Well, easy enough, go to nwwheelers.com or pirate4x4 if you want real happy "we've never heard of this" answers

Texas_Ace

Yeah, Pirate is a barrel of fun. This thread would be right up their ally.

In all seriousness though, you didn't exactly give a lot to go on.

Wasn't looking for spoon feeding I'm new to toyota and basicly wanted to get pointed in right direction I have all the wire harness and diagrams, I was seeing if there was a short simple way of doing it, I did do a search and there is nothing on basicly crate starting a 3.4 been trying to get photo on here but don't see where and how.

There's about only about 7 wires needed to get the 3.4 running... There's tons of info in https://www.yotatech.com/forums/f160/ Start with the sticky threads. Pleases do yourself a favor and do some reading and learning because you're going to need to be able to field repair your rig. It's really the ultimate resource for 3.4 swaps on the internet. Also in a buggy, I would also be going for an LS too, but you didn't ask.

travstoy

I have searched through here for couple days and all I can find is where everyone puts a 3.4 in there older vehicle I can't seem to find a thread where it's about using a 3.4 in a buggy or crate starting your 3.4

Let the spoon feeding begin

Getting closer

Older vehicle, buggy or crate will all be the same to get the engine to run. Get a wiring diagram and look at which wires go to power, ground and signal.

I got it too fire last night, now have a fuel line issue where it attached from engine to line, will hopefully solve that today and hopefully be driving it Friday. Moving rite along...

edit: nevermind, this thread has been a waste of time and bandwith...

Thanks for the help been reading about every article I find, I am using cruise control as this is also going be a daily driver and I go on very long trips. This was first being built as advertisement so I could turn heads but during the process I scraped and sold my other wheelers and this has became an obsession.
