    Gas leak from tank area-- 1997 LX450

    ...Also important to note that you'll want to test or replace the Vent Solenoid Valve (*diagrams and part numbers in the link above), as this was the root cause after 2 tank replacements. This valve controls venting of tank pressure to the Charcoal Canister and will also fix your substantial...

    So apparently moth balls are limited to moths

    They may be smarter than traps, but they're not smarter than peanut butter! Baiting the trap correctly accounts for the dim-witted ones, leaving you with Einstein-level pack rats that force different strategies. I've been fighting the VerminCong for years, man. I've seen some stuff,...

    Can we confirm is this is Pesky Heater Hose Leak?

    If you're inclined to change the clamp to a better quality one - wouldn't you also just replace the hose?

    1FZ alternator overdrive pulley source

    ...For cars that get tracked or just driven hard at higher RPM, it makes a difference, and this is paired with going to a more powerful alternator (*70amp vs 55amp - these are small cars, remember). As an interesting aside, the retrofit pulley also offers 2 belts, replicating what the Toyota...

    Looking for independent Toyota shop phoenix

    @Cruiserhiggs is your guy. His shop is nowhere near me, but I trust him to do anything on any series of LandCruiser, and he has a wide following of Tacos and Forerunners at every show & shine. He even installed my factory OEM short block from Japan in the 80series. Get in touch with him, he's...

    Yeah, he said it was a 1966 FJ40, but when you averaged all the parts, it was more like a 68...!

    So apparently moth balls are limited to moths

    ☝️ - only if it comes with a powerful rat ejector, otherwise you're going to have fun trying not to get contaminated while setting it up for the next rat. Incidentally, I was helping my mom rid her house of citrus rats coming in through her dryer vent hole, as the construction guys left it open...

    Welcome aboard, WireNut! Show us some pictures of that 40... Seems like we've had quite a few join in he past year or so. Not enough to offset the 80 representation, but so many of these are still on the roads,

    Alternator light coming on intermittently

    As its only the back cover that comes off to replace the brushes, has anyone attempted this IN the truck, thus saving removal and retensioning?

    UPDATE: Need advice - My poor girl got hit

    If you win your Diminished Value claim, you'll be in rarefied air. My case: brand new Mazda6 years ago, and less than 500 miles on the Odo, wife-unit gets rear-ended by a teenager playing with his phone. Happened RIGHT IN FRONT of the Farmers Insurance building, which he had for insurance. The...

    Throttle icing up..?

    Speaking from the aviation end, carb icing results in noticeable power loss, not a frozen linkage or stuck throttle. The venturies within the carb are what ice up given the sudden drop in air pressure, which then prevents fuel flow into the venturi. Any loss of power at altitude results in...

    282K miles - Blown HG, what other PM?

    Sounds like you're on the riht track. Just keep an eye on your overflow bottle. As it burps, expect some fluctuation of the level, and then - after a week or so - the level there should go up when hot and down when cold, like clockwork. Good luck with it,
