Huh. Still not sure what they are but we'll find out!

My question is is yeah I can buy radiator hoses but where do you get like the brake booster hose and the other main hoses

83

When in doubt, dealership.

Assuming you've already tried places like Rock Auto and Napa. And aren't just worrying about not finding something without even making any effort first to see if anyone has it.

Which is something I used to do.

Ok well I found all the hoses I need except for the brake booster to intake hose does anyone know a part number or where to get one thanks

isn't that just general 1/2" hose?
You should be able to bring some in to a Napa and buy it by the foot, I think it's just heater hose.

Yeah that looks like what I'm gonna have to do but the hose that is in mine now is a pre formed hose and when I buy it by the foot and put it on it wants to bind up when I turn the 90 degree turn, so there has ti be a hose somewhere for that that is pre formed

Dealership

Well I'll admit finding that brake booster hose isn't easy! The dealership shut me down today on both the carb spacer and booster hose. No longer available according to the guy I talked to...

I found brake booster vacuum hoses online with that 90* bend...I'll have to look close at mine and see if they'd work, even though they aren't made for my truck. Mine looks like it got a bunch of brake fluid on it at some point, along with the brake booster. Rough shape...

Yeah my dealer doesn't have it either but if you find something that will work holla at me and I'll do the same for you

You might Google for part numbers 44773-35100 or 44773-22320 (replacement number I think). Vacuum hose #2 goes to intake. I saw one at this link, that you might call for availability

They sure are proud of that vacuum hose #1...

I'd have to see a photo to know if it would work.

Thanks catfish! The weather is turing to winter here so I can't promise that I'll be motivated to work on the truck a lot...but I'd like to get this taken care of before spring, so maybe I'll get on it.

I will let you know.

You could get a length of hose and put an elbow in it to make fit. There's will, there's a way on these 1st generations, to beat oem prices

catfish21

iTrader: (1)

Lons are you positive that is the hose I need

83

I don't see a year anywhere...

As far as OEM, I couldn't even find anything pre-1990...

But I don't know how to search very well on the online Toyota sites.

83

Yes, there's definitely a way to make this happen. For me, since there's no rush, I'm going to look as hard as I can for something that fits. If that doesn't pan out...then yeah, a 90 degree elbow is probably the best idea.

But I just saw some vacuum hose in NAPA with a 90 degree bend that would probably work. Just need to look at my hose again to be sure.

Hey Catfish. I would think that the first number would be good, according to the pic I have. I took that number and did a P/N search on the site for my truck and they have that hose listed. If it has been superseded by another P/N, I don't know. The preformed hoses at the dealership will cost you an arm and a leg. Hope it helps

At that site, you can enter your VIN, and look up parts for you specific truck.

Ok well got my head pulled and there is some carbon build up around the top of the Pistons but I have a question is the piston supposed to have a very slight play to them cause it has a very slight play front to back but not side to side is this normal. It is very slight play but it has me worried a little but this mite just be normal help me out here

They should be in there real snug. If you have play in the pistons from front to back then you may have a thrust washer issue that caused the rods and pistons to travel front to back thus causing wear on the front and rear of the cylinder walls or rings. If you're lucky, it's ring wear, but I wouldn't count on it. Looks like a complete rebuild may be in your future, but don't be scared - it's really not that difficult if you have a FSM. I remember the first motorcycle engine that I rebuilt - I was timid at first, but I followed the manual exactly and that engine was still running about 6 years after I rebuilt it when the guy that I sold it to totalled the bike. He ran the piss out of too - put at least 20K of hard miles on it which is a pretty good life for a Kawaski sport bike.

Well that is not wut I wanted ti here but it is 33 years old, I would like to say my cylinder walls look great no scratches deep cuts or nothing just your normal ring wear at the very top. I know they expand when heated up but Idk I'm just upset cause this is my dd and really don't have the money for this right now
