I'm sending my 92 LC to Land Crisper Heaven for restoration work, mostly mechanical and interior. Anyone have experience with them?

I have a mice nest in my blower. Clumps keep falling out when I turn the blower on and it's noisy. Stored the truck and set traps everywhere. No dead mice 6 mos later but still have debris in the blower. What's the easiest way to open it up without taking too many things apart? Thanks Amber

Try cleaning the brake lever...under the leather boot. My parking light was on too...at a mudders recommendation, I cleaned it and solved the problem.

The Toyota Sombrero

Came out this am and noticed it was gone. Shipped to 90638.

If I remember correctly, I used a little bit of heavy weight oil...lust a few drops at each corner to keep the gasket in place. That job was a very worthwhile one....kept my engine much cleaner.

My 92 lives in the mountains of WV and gets stored from mid December through June. I installed quick disconnect on the battery and I leave half a tank with stabilizer. Every June it fires right up. Not nearly 40 below but the 92 is good like that.

Exact thing just happened to me...my Schrader valve was loose, refrigerant leaked out and compressor wouldn't engage. Coincidentally, it was after I did the fan clutch mod and I'm sure I bumped the valve when I was trying to loosen the bolts on the fan clutch.

Jb weld and gorilla duct tape until My replacement arrived from Dan....it's my DD.

I have a Koso digital temp sensor installed. I replaced the oil with 15k, and it's a green fan clutch. I considered adjusting the thermostat but got lazy...now wishing I did. I will also look into the expansion valve. Thanks! Amber

A few months back my AC was blowing warm when I was at idle. I replaced the oil in the fan clutch with thicker and it started blowing ice cold again. Engine temps steady between 183-197 depending. We had a few weeks of over 100 degree weather (Ca) and I noticed the AC temp started to warm up...

+1 on the heater control valve. Looks like its coming From back of the engine. Imperceptible when looking at it from the bay and from underneath.

1994 207k all original, engine clean as a whistle and drives great 1992 245k all original. Slow but tough

Normal in both my 92 and 94.

Air intake hose? I had the same on my 94 and when I checked the hose it broke in two. Ordered one from Cdan but had to JB weld and duct tape it until it gets here.
