IS that it?

 

No. I answered this question in your other post.

 

Uh no, that is your oil pressure sender.

Again, CLICK ON THE LINKS and READ.

It is underneath the intake, you will have to remove your upper AND LOWER intake manifolds to access it.

 

That sounds like a job, Ive never done anything like that before... not good.

 

Its under the intake manifold between the heads FUN!

 

haha i called toyota to see how much , 180 for the sensor , 600 for labor, looks like i getting my hands dirty.

where is a good place to get the wire? is toyota the only place?

 

Get it at Toyota. It's cheap and durable.
