Yeah i've got a spare so wasn't sure if I should swap it out right away or just wait until any possible issues. Trying to figure out if it just makes sense to replace all of them with new ones and keep a few of the better looking factory ones as spares.
Gonna be doing a lot of summer traveling...
FWIW; The PVC stock valve on my 2000 with 275k miles looked... clean... and functioned like it should, since I already bought it and needed to replace the grommet I just replaced both.
Have known way too many knuckle heads (think typical Altima owner stereotype) that legitimately thought their vehicle was a magical cloud on wheels that only needed gas to operate. Ironically, one of them was an Altima owner and his engine, of course, seized.
Today I inspected and fixed some vacuum lines, cleaned the MAF, throttle body valve, checked my ignition coils, checked for loose spark plugs and inspected the timing belt.
I know it’s probably impossible to tell. But any idea how these ignition coils look? The second one from bottom is...
Had an issue with mine a few years back where it wouldn't unlock and would get stuck. Did a ton of research on here and it's definitely not a common issue.

@Chrisek You’re probably right, I did...

Removing the sliders is still an idea. I don't really know if it will affect much and the physics of it... all I know is I for sure felt it when I installed them LOL.

2000 Land Cruiser W/ 273K miles on the ODO
- Fan Clutch: I don't believe mine has ever been replaced. Are there any ways to test it or symptoms to look out for before it...
Checked tire pressure, removed second row seats in prep for camping platform going back in (I dread putting the yeti in with the seats in place, and gave it a quick wash.

I followed this video below and for some reason my rods to the door lock assembly did not look like it does here at 3:18... so I struggled trying to figure out how to remove it without breaking. In the video, theres a pink plastic clip that unhooks downward of the handle, mine didn't have that...
I got these ones and was surprised how well the quality seemed:

Well, today I woke up to sunny weather which is not too common here in the PNW during this time of year LOL... so I decided to go ahead and swap out the power window motor and while in there...
