In search of a roller 4x4 pickup without drivetrain or one with a blown motor. I totaled my 1991 4x4 pickup last week and I am devastated without it. Theres so many new parts on my truck it feels like it would be a waste to scrap it. I found a deal in South Carolina but I just wanted to see if...

I have an 80 series that I love that I has been rolled, and I would like to recab it, if anyone is in possession of a clean COMPLETE 80 series shell including all panels (fenders, rear hatch/door, hood) I am interested. I hate to buy a complete 80 series and tear it apart just for the shell, but...

My coolant temperature sensor hard failed, and my o2 sensor had given up. Those were freaking the ECU out and making the engine run terrible. i wound up blowing that motor up and swapped over to a 22re performance stage 2+ build and this thing runs like a dream now!

Have any EWD169F's available?

Hey guys, I purchased a diesel cruiser recently and the tach isnt working and upon closer inspection it looks like someone disassembled the cluster and messed with some stuff. Does anyone have a 1hdt/5 speed cluster that up they would be interested in getting rid of? I would also be willing to...

Im gonna order one tonight and see if that helps. I am worried that the oil the engine is burning will clog it up but I need something to keep the truck a little more driveable until the winter is over. Thank you for your recommendation, I read your build thread on the 1985 4runner, thing badass.

No CEL. Sometimes the engine will start choking while driving and it will come on momentarily but it always goes out.

It also only shoots clouds of black smoke when you try to accelerate at certain times and the power "cuts out" like you can feel the power coming on and off, even if you hold the pedal steady and usually wont rev over a certain RPM. Today it did it and wouldn't let the engine over 3k rpm and...

I havent checked the injectors yet, but that is also a possibility. The engine has bad valve seals on the #4 cylinder so it burns a little oil too, maybe that could be clogging an injector and making it run weird? The weird thing for me is just how well it runs when its cold and then goes...

Greetings mudders, About 3 months ago I picked up a 1991 toyota pickup with the 22RE and I love it but it needs some work. I am having some kind of ignition problem at the moment where once the engine bay heats up the truck starts misfiring horribly and shooting clouds of black smoke out of...

OK that works for me, and just to confirm is the coolant pipe you have for a later model? I deleted my PAIR system so I'm trying to get rid of the extra soft hose that I don't need anymore. And I am out-of town at the moment so if you could handle the shipping side that would be very helpful for...

Looking for 2 things - a rigid coolant hose from a 1995+ P/N 87208-60161 Oil Level sensor for the 1FZFE. I don't know if the year makes a difference but I have a 1994.

So I did a 5,000 mile road trip sleeping in the back of the cruiser the whole way. Truck ran flawlessly other than the PHH literally exploding while in downtown Seattle. The battery charge issue seemed to not be bothering the truck. Sure enough the moment I got home and parked it for 2 days it...

I have a very poorly installed OEM toyota towing wire harness. I would remove it but I do use the towing harness pretty regularly. I'll have to go through it and see if I can clean it up at least. So I do have that red top and its been through a very hellish winter where it was dying and getting...

I will try this when I go back to work soon, we have crazy high tech multimeters there that get calibrated every 6 months so I trust a reading from one of those more than my own.
