Spotted on the Boise Craigslist today. (this is not my car). Appears to be a very restorable local desert car. Asking $4500. If the ad is up it is still up for grabs. 1976 Toyota FJ40 - cars & trucks - by owner - vehicle automotive sale -...

What is the price, lexan or polycrbonate? Mods, should this post be moved to the classifieds?

Go with the Denso. Perfect fit.

I used the Asian brand grey fipg per the service manual. Allowed it to set up before final torque according to the directions. 5000 miles later it is holding pressure just fine. The nearby o-ring is a unique size, part number Mahle #C31699. If you haven't already replaced your radiator that will...

I live in Idaho so thought I would contribute a typical weekend outing here to give you an idea of what to expect. Last week went from Boise ID (43.6150° N, 116.2023° W Elevation: 2,730′) to Atlanta ID (43.8017° N, 115.1271° W Elevation: 5,383′) via FS road #384 & #327 Edna Creek. Hit 6,400' at...

The o-ring used in the water neck bypass is a unique size and it can leak intermittently. It then drips down into the valley and runs to the back of the engine block. The surrounding female fitting for the o-ring should be carefully cleaned (no scratches) to allow for heat movement as the metal...

How about the two air lines and clips running to the rear air bags?

Was joking about looking at the muffler... I meant the large muffler across from the main fuel tank. If we could relocate that one then just add another stock tank. Might be a bit loud though! So what if we were to get a group buy together and fill a small shipping container with Prado 120 Sub...

Have not tried this on the GX470 display but ran into the same problem with our GE wall oven VFD. The display segments were dim. Replaced a B+ side capacitor which increased the supply voltage. Helped a little bit. Link: GE Wall Oven, Dim display capacitor repair - Badcaps Forums -...
