My babe has been traded in.:crybaby:
I will no longer be the proud owner of a 1990 Toyota Prado.:crybaby:
It has been a blast here over the last few years.:)
I've learned a heck of a lot about the vehicle, more than any other I...
Well this is unusual. I think??
I was looking under the hood of the Prado the other day and went to check the trany fluid.
Grabed the stick pulled on it the stick came up along with part of the tubing that holds it..:crybaby:
Looks like it broke just at the bracket that is bolted to the engine...

A perfect fit Thanks Dave..

Hi out there.
Just wondering if anyone out there has purchased an OBD 1 compatible trip computer to hook up to the diagnostics port
of the ECU.
If so what is the make, model etc.

OR...
OK..
I have a question I want to ask..
I hope there are some people out there that
have an answer..
Do you experience a vaccum when
you open your fuel tank to refill.??
Is this normal.?? If normal ok..

Hi there..
I'm looking to change out the glow plugs in my 2LTE.
OEM part is 19850-54090.
