was the battery disconnected? I'm somewhat doubting the ecu is having to relearn how to idle since i'm sure you have tried starting it many times by now.
But what happens if you start it and give it just a little bit of gas just to keep the...
Have you ever priced a new screen from the dealer??? When I bought my LX and I was looking at the service records I saw where Lexus quoted the previous owner something like $8,000 to replace one of the screens.
I read most of the articles and really like hearing about their testing methods. It seems like there is a standard they have to meet but they push things to want to know what fails and how it fails when it comes to designing things. As they said...
It’s a tough world we live in when it’s full of bean counters and people who buy a car based on what features it has rather than how it’s built.
I think 80s were built in a time when the engineers really didn’t care what the bean counters thought...
I’ve had two coworkers who both went the super cheap (<$300) fridge route. One of them gave me crap all the time about how much I spent on my ARB fridges. Both of their fridges have stopped working for no reason. It didn’t seem like any kind of...
This has probably been beaten to death but I have had the mindset that if the surfaces are sliding past one another, like in the slip yoke section of the driveshaft, then you want a moly grease. Its been my understanding that you don't want a...
I'd look at Overland Tailor. John is on the forum and i believe still does the tuning in Birmingham. His website says he can do forced induction tuning on tundras so he must be able to do 200s also.
This part is exactly what I just said. Not sure how it’s incorrect compared to what you just said.
This is all a wording things. But I wouldn’t say a system that sends little to no power to the front wheels while steady state cruising is a...
The wording and marketing on these Jeep 4wd systems is horrible because this 4wd isn’t really FULL-TIME. It’s more of Auto-4WD. It uses a clutch in the transfer case to send power to the front wheels. It does probably react quickly at sending...
I’d go with the same layout as redarc shows for their smart relay but with the added fuses on either end of the positive batteries like you’ve suggested before. But instead of the redarc relay use the Blue Sea ML-ACR 7622. It’s got a much...
I ran the cartridge type block heater on my tundra 5.7 and have been unable to find that heater from anywhere. What are you all running? Anyone know where I can find a block heater? Everywhere says unavailable....
@desertwampa All this info regarding accessories is on the forum many times over. Also every thread you have started in the last few months has also been discussed in the past and can be found by doing some searches on the forum or google that...
I think for that price you can spend maybe $30 to $50 more and get a LiFePO4 battery. I'm sure if you hunt through amazon enough you can find one that is even closer in price.
My aux battery on my 80 series is a group 31 Odyssey and its going on...
My guess is the blend door is not moving to allow air to flow through the heater core. Behind the dash there is the "box" that holds the heater core and all of the flaps to direct air. As you move the temp slider from cold to hot a motor turns a...
