Our '87 4R SR5 Honduras Coffee/Missions Rig Build... (3 Viewers)

[KLF]

Swapping to a later ('89+) intake doesn't eliminate the IACV. It's just integrated into the throttle body, much less complicated. I have done the intake swap on mine, and I recently had to replace the IACV with a new one ($OUCH$), the old one was way out of adjustment and not working properly, but it only affects the idle.

Daniel, if you need an older reed-style IACV, I still have one.

Did you ever get that Tuffy console mounted?

Cold start timer switch?

I may need it KLF, I'll let you know. The console isn't in yet, but I did manage to remove the old one. I was making head way and the BLAMMO my house went crazy with life projects, plus we've been adding on to the our coffee facility (roaster, coffee making EQ, etc.). Anyway now I'm waiting for some warm weather as I HATE cold weather!

I'll add the cold start thingy to my list. I love working on it, but I just wish it wasn't my DD.

Here's a video of it running rough if this helps...
Thx! -Daniel Kent

The vibrating in the cab is the license plate on the dash.

Sounds like timing to me. Your idle is too low, adjust with the big screw in the top of the throttle body. Should be around 650-700 rpm.

 

[The Jade Bean]

I wonder if it's that just because it was sudden... Driving fine and then BLAMMO running like that limping home.

Ok guys! In about a month I'm going to HN to check on our farm and I'm wondering what parts would be best for me to buy there that are hard or impossible to get here.

They have virtually every part you can imagine for the older gen Yota trucks. What would you buy and bring back for our 4Runner?

Thanks!

Buying a timing light/gun... Should I get one that tells actual RPM's or traditional?

 

[KLF]

I never trust the dash tach when doing timing/tweaking. It's usually high. I have an old Sun diagnostic tach as well as a timing light.

 

[The Jade Bean]

Ok well good news. I've learned one of my neighbors is a tenured Toyota mechanic, so we have agreed to do some bartering! I've been doing pools for 15 yrs so I'm going to remodel their pool and he'll remodel our 4Runner. Each person pays for their own parts, but donates labor.

Pretty excited!

If you can believe it I'm still waiting on my replacement rails for our soft top.

Also going to HN in a few weeks, for a few weeks. So that will be fun!

TPS is bad and I ordered a new OEM one. Will be in Tue. Fingers crossed!

-Daniel Kent

 

[The Jade Bean]

My new rails are finished and will be shipped to me Mon! Sadly I likely won't get the top back on until I get back from Honduras April 22nd.

Took some time to take off the side steps. BETTER!

 

[MatS]

That thing looks sharp.

 

[Mudder]

Dang. I'm jealous of your rig. What rims are those?

 

[The Jade Bean]

Thank you both! Those rims to my knowledge are the original ones that came with it. They were pretty dirty and still need a good cleaning on the backside, but I like the look.

Thinking about doing something like this on our 4R. Maybe 2-4 of them, although likely only 2 would fit.

They don't make one specifically for 1st gen 4R's, but you could pick a best fit and mod.

Copy that. I have a Little Pasengers 3rd row seat as a forward facing bench in the back of my 40. I like it for the 3 integrated seat belts.
