I really like the change.

 

half way done.. done for the day.

 

love dark color wheels. did mine in like a gun metal color.
i would buy the one from toyota dealer. its where i got mine and it was $100+. its funny cuz i told my parts guy, order me one. when it came in, i went to pay and she told me something like $100+ i was like wtf. didnt know they were that much. i say go with oem. i changed my original one out at 226xxx miles lol well worth it imo and you will only buy once and know for sure it will work

 

all my searches said that the one i got from autozone is the correct one.. so we'll see what happens..

 

Have I told you guys how much I love my truck?? :p

 

(all my searches said that the one i got from autozone is the correct one.. so we'll see what happens.. )


it should work fine. i'm running the same one in my runner for the past two years.

 

i know the feeling.

 

have i told you how much i hate mine? i give her all new suspension and a front axle, and what does she give me? a blown engine

 

Awesome thanks!

 

Aw dude that's the worst.. I have my o2 sensor on the way. Hopefully that ends my engine woes for a bit.

 

I'll paint the other two on Sunday... Very pleased with the results.

 

Looks GREAT, Blake! I like it both ways, and yeah, I understand you on the 'flaking wheel' syndrome'! lol.

Best wishes that the 02 swap does the trick!

 

thanks chef! still waiting for my o2 sensor.. they shipped it..ground... from Tenn. should be in sometime tomorrow.. hopefully i can get it before i go to work

 

woo o2 sensor came in!
boo! misfire is quite obvious. gonna break out the o-scope to see if any of my ignition system crapped. even though it is all new and factory.

It's about time to inspect fuel system..
figuring I'll be starting with grounds... looking for corrosion.

 

 

Yep, that's the sucker! lol.

Sorry bout the misfire.... SURE it's not something that just might have been faulty from the get go in the 'NEW' ignition?

Hope you track it down quick, bud!

 

didnt you post a video of your new exhaust system? i talked to an MDT bout how your exhaust sounded when i was tuning my quad. anyways somethings came up and he didnt hear the clip but did say something bout the pop. i think i remember hearing some pops coming from you exhaust.

this is what he said "on a 4runner depending on serverity is most comonly a tight valve , usually when i diag. tight valves on any car i will hold a paper or cardboard up to the exhoust and if it pulls the paper in at all all it will amplify the pop cuz of the paper , and that tells me the valve is hanging open to long or is burnt . there shoukd be no vac."

 

lookie what I found in the back of an extra parts/tools storage at work. It's a 1987 model.. looks like it's never been used. 1987 truck... 1987 diag machine... with instructions.. Off at 5... shop closes sometime between 7-9... Gonna play Back to the Future

 

oh dear it's tiny. Un Momento.
