Ah ok very cool. You mentioned "fuel cell" in the first post along with no emissions I was thinking you where building a full electric 80 but was not sure.

Sry not trying to divert thread. Can some one explain what the OP is doing and why? What is a fuel cell and how does having one make emissions test a non issue? Sry for the stupid question

Man that sucks. F'n scumbags are getting brave. I mean getting under someones ride with a sawsall and cutting thew a pipe twice has to make a lot of noise. did they know you wernt home? Sry not much help on the routing but ih8mud rocks, someone will know... knowing mud 15 someones will know.

Hey all, What is the best product to clean a large amount of caked on oil off the front of the block? Anything I should avoid getting wet? Thx.

So I'm looking to get into fabrication primaly to make and repair stuff for my LC/4runner but working metal is just a good skill to have in general. What would be a good a good set of tool for limited expense? Most I will try and find at my local pawn shop or craigslist but just need to know...

PHH was swapped with the blue"lifetime" hose and beefy clamps about 3 years ago and it still showing no signs of leaking. At 156K miles a head gasket is not to far off in the future. No signs of anything but coolant in the radiator when I take the cap off and it is not leaking badly enough to...

After about 30 minutes of driving when I get out there is a sweet smell...hard to describe other than that. I do have a hose that leads into the thermostat that it leaking a little. Is this just coolant burning?

So about 2 years ago I lost the rear nameplate the goes across the bottom of the rear door(Auto pressure carwash). I could easily get a replacement from Cdan but as shown in the pic I already had Land Cruiser plates on the side. I originally got these from someone selling them here on mud that...

I also have to park on gravel.Just throw a piece of cardboard/carpet down and lay on that. It is to easy for some shop to skimp on quality oil or the amount and lie about it to your face. I would think that most shops base there flat rate oil change around a normal 4-5q so when you give them a...

So even if I was willing to spend the coin on the master tech or a knock-off I would not get much more info than the paperclip can give me?

yea got the properly bent paperclip in the glove box for pulling codes. was just looking for a cool display. I'll admit it I like cool little boxes that light up with info, even if it may be redundant. Might go the temp gauge route though just to get accurate info on that.

Anyone got a lead on any kind of scan gauge for the 94' would love to be able to mount something on the console or dash that showed what was going with the truck at all times. Thx

Yea I limped home at 10 mph with hazards on and a hand on the gear shift to throw it in park if I had to.. I was able to stop but pedal only moved about .5" and that was with a large amount of force. Needless to say I had it towed this morning to the shop. Just hope they do a good...

What about them makes them so much of a hassle?
