    Touch Screen Freezes Up on My 100 Series

    When selecting “buttons” in the audio and climate screens on my 2003 it sometimes won’t take the inputs. It doesn’t happen all the time. Is this the dreaded Pin 60 problem?

    Living with a 3" lift

    I don't own a 4Runner, but I'm currently shopping for one. I've found another one that looks promising. It does have a 3" Toytec lift. I am buying this truck for travel rather than hard core wheeling, so I'm wondering if this lift is a plus or a minus. The owner says it rides better than it...

    Looking for an 80, 100, or 3rd gen 4Runner

    Hey folks Anyone know of one for sale locally? I’ve been studying the silver 4Runner at QC Motors at the corner of Maple and College in Fayetteville. Anyone familiar with it? I think it is a good one except when in 4wd it activates the traction control for about one second when you first...

    Unusual Sound When Using 4 Wheel Drive

    Hi Folks I've been looking at a 2002 Limited that looks promising except for one thing: When in 4 wheel drive, the traction control engages for the first second after you depress the accelerator. At least, that's what I think it is. I hear a rapid rattle noise that sounds like it is coming...

    Looking at Buying a 2002 4Runner Limited

    Is this a good year? Was this one of the years prone to frame rot? As I understand it, no lockers available, but the traction control helps. I've found a nice one with 126,000 miles on it. I will be looking it over on Saturday.

    How long and how fast can you drive on the highway while aired down?

    Hey y'all Going to be taking a trip from NW Arkansas to northern Arizona in the next couple of weeks and plan to do a fair amount of it on dirt roads. There will be numerous sections of paved highway. Do you air up and down at each change? What are the guidelines for driving on paved roads...

    10.5" or 12.5" width on my 80 series

    Was planning on getting a 33" x 10.5" tire for the 15" wheels on my stock suspension 1992. However, the selection in the 10.5" width is not good. Bumping it up to a 12.5" width gives me a much greater selection. Question: What are the potential drawbacks or hazards of using an oversize tire...

    Coolant Leak From Near Lower Radiator Hose Attachment

    Hi folks I'm leaking coolant from near where the lower radiator hose attaches to the block. It's not leaking from the hose or from around where the hose attaches. It looks like it is leaking from a bolt on the bottom of the thermostat housing. The bolt has what looks like a thin strip of...

    Do You Use the Original Jack?

    I've got a '92 that I am gradually getting roadworthy and it's time to deal with the tires. I went to drop the spare the other day and discovered that I have the OEM bottle jack, but no jack handle or extensions. I don't like the idea of the little bottle jack with its contact surface that's...

    Does Anyone Carry Gasoline Inside Their Vehicle

    It could be strapped down to the back seat attachment points. Anyone do this? Do I have a death wish?

    Ball Stud For Hood Lift Strut

    Just bought aftermarket struts for the hood on my '92 model. These struts require that the OEM ball studs that screw into the hood be re-used and inserted into the new lift strut. The problem is that the old ball studs will not come out of the sockets of the old lift struts. Has anyone else...

    O2 Sensor Question

    Hi folks I'm starting the process of replacing the O2 sensors and cats on my 1992 model. I am going to get the O2 sensors first so I can take them to the local muffler shop to see if they have the right flanges in stock to use their own generic cats to save some money. I was planning on using...

    Should Gas Tank Hold a Vacuum?

    Bought my '92 about a week and a half ago and just filled it up for the first time. When I cracked the gas cap there was a long whoosh of air rushing into (or possibly out of) the gas tank. None of my other cars do this. Is it normal? By the way, I got 12 MPG.

    O2 Sensor Question

    Hi folks I've just gotten a '92 model that needs to have the upper end of the exhaust system replaced. The catalytic converters are shot and one of the O2 sensors have fallen out of its mounting bung. I took it to the local muffler shop to get a quote on having this done. They can custom...
