my rear passenger side door is stuck shut. I got the panel off and accessed the latch mechanism but cant get anything to budge. -pulled and pushed door very hard while moving unlatch mechanism - there is some give -removed plastic dust cover anything else in the way -pryed with flat head every...

I replaced the starter, it was a blast. It has started fine for 3 days

just curious if you can report back on fix for this. I have to hold my key on for 1-3 seconds to get my 92 to crank over. Problem has been getting worse with no crank, and then a handheld jumper gets it going. This is intermittent, but worse in cold weather. My experience with starters is that...

closed. seats found. good luck

thanks I went with a local one because of the warranty. It actually seems pretty robust. It has lasted 150 miles without issues.

Whats the 3FE guys doin for power steering pumps these days? Mine finally took a crap and I can’t seem to find one other than O’Reilly‘s $280 american one.

I'm not sure why you keep saying you push the choke in after it has been running... Are you driving with the choke pulled out? please verify your process. If you are doing that to make it run good, the carb needs addressed. Also confirm idle solenoid is properly functioning or just replace it -...

I installed an ebay plastic tailgate ($88) a few weeks ago in lieu of taking top off this year. Looks great and is very functional for mounting licanse plate and keeping stuff from flying out (such as my backpack during summer school in 95’ lol). VERY cheaply made though and worry kids are...

You could also look at the solders on the motherboard of your computer (if equipped). If they are busted it can cause stalling. Mine occurred intermittently when stopping but wasnt brake/vacuum related…

Shop says its too big and also we have the issue with it being two units stock. The above part states “no returns”. They are looking up other options. Anybody know why a large distributor of parts would supply a single cat that seemingly does not fit at all? Anybody used a single cat on a 3fe...

To update this post. I just ordered this one. Confirmed with muffler shop its compliant. Cheapest I could find by 100 bucks. The 92 passed smog every year since Ive owned it but this year. Done all I can think of and barely will not pass. 134 ppm cO2 at idle (120 max). Smog guy and my mechanic...

In my younger days it was pretty hard to beat the stereo upgrade, tunes were a must especially for long trips. I had boxes in the back under the jump seats. A bikini top changed everything too making summers very comfortable. Nowadays I couldn’t be happier with my front bench seat. Comes in...

Worked more on tire swingout. Almost there. Not happy with latch system will likely source a late model fj40 latch and run it diagonal like toyota did back then, makes sense. What a pain it is to get in the back now lol. Any body have good idea for locking your spare?

Marco what fans are you runnin? I picked up an aluminum rad and plan on switching to electric this summer… Celebrated 10 years of ownership this week! She deserved New spark plugs/wires and some fresh oil. Still needs a good bath though 😝 March 2015 168k March 2025 222k Original wires...

Negative. But I see the first post with another support perpendicular to the straight ones I have. I plan on adding a 3rd piece now with 2x2 spanning frame to base of spindle 👍
