found the culprit for the idle problem huge vacuum leak on the power steering pump thing where there are two vacuum lines!

That is probably the cause for the lean code too. Fix that, disconnect battery to clear codes and trims and see if the mil comes back on.

Already did and it's running way better now and no CEL so far, drove it pretty good yesterday and no problems, I had to use jb weld to attach the little nozzle thing that sticks out for the line to go over, and idea what this part is and where to get it from? Besides a stealership?

If i remember right that part just threads into the power steering pump. Could try an auto parts store but they may not sell it alone from the pump. Or if you found one at a wrecking yard

If you're in Charleston (843), LKQ had a couple 4Runners there last time I was there, both still had PS pumps on them. You could also check Blue and Gold on Red Bank Rd. in Goose Creek.

Yea that's the part, I guess I'll try blue and gold, I've had pretty good luck withthem before , I just don't want a brittle old one that's gonna do the same thing laterddown the road, but I do need a new console so maybe that'sa good excuse ! Where are you you from 98?

Berkeley Electric? Sounds like fun! Haha. PM me or something if you ever want to do a maintenance day or some light wheeling. My buddy has a '94 LT1 that's fun to play with too if you're ever over this way.

i fixed my mpg pronlem the other day just by reseting the ecu and now im getting like 25-26 in town
is there a trick to finding vacuum leaks or is it just looking very hard for the leak

HighLux

Dreidel...use a propane torch...unlit....turn on the gas..and point it at all vacuum line/gasket areas.....it will rev up from propane if there is a leak.

Dreidel

ok cool thanks im just glad i fixed for the most part my mpg problem simply by resetting the ecu (kinda sucks because today i was offered to good o2 sensors off a camery but ill save them for later)
