Question Couple of Questions....

Ok...I have a 180,000 mile rig.
-What type and guage of oil should I use?
-Where can I get cheap cargo bay replacement carpet? - aint no junk yards around here-
-Would it matter what octane of fuel I use?
-Can anyone point me in the right direction for installin a new power antenna mast? ( the paper that came with replacement sucks a big one )

Thanks guys....

Sorry, forgot to add this.

I noticed that when I am in Park...when I press the brake to get ready to shift into reverse or drive...my idle drops..
Now is this normal? Or do I need to start pokin around? Anyone know anything about this? Have had plenty of hoopties in my time..but never had this problem lol
Thanks

Is that implying that your surfing the web at work, but can't search at work?

octane is not really gonna help. i did a mini experiement on it. tried expensive fuel. only got me maybe 10 more miles to a tank. not worth the 5 bucks extra at the pump.
try changing your fuel filter if you wanna try something.
e-mail parts@nix99.com that is a junkyard that has 4runners check if he has anything.

Your lucky you signed into yotatech and not pirate or somthing or you would not make it out alive. Searching is the best thing you can do because asking the same questions over and over again when you type your question into search youll find it is kinda rediculous to just ask IMO im all for asking wquestions becasue if you dont you cant really learn but use the search
