I am in the middle of a 3.4 engine swap and im missing the vsv sensor. this sensor needs to be on the vacuum system to run right and i cant track one down to save my life. I went to toyota and they have 2 sensor part numbers come up and i dont know witch i need or if it even matters.

The sensors are spendy and i only want to have to buy one. does anybody have a 99 tacoma manual 4x4 that they could get me the number from or offer me some help. i tried junkyards and still cant find one.

The sensor should have only one vacuum line going to it and a conector with three wires. located next to the canistor on the driver side fender.

Thanks

 

do you have a pic so i can check it? or if you have the 2 part numbers, post it so we can see which one is applicable. is your truck a VZN160L or a VZN170L?

 

i dont have the vin to the truck that the ecu and harness came off of but the numbers that i got for the vsv sensor are 89460-04010 and 89460-35030. these are the numbers straight from toyota. The sensor is actually bassically sitting on top of the master cylinder on the firewall with only a small metal bracket holding it.

 

it's known as the Vapor Pressure Sensor Assembly and it seems that the correct part number is 89460-04010.
