    Third Brake Light Not Working on 1996

    Correct, I did not have to replace the diode. This is the LED light strip I bought from Amazon.

    A/C system - how to remove the cooling unit, evaporator, expansion valve

    So looks like I’ll have to drain the dryer and the compressor to remove the 6.3 oz I overfilled. That’s good info! Thanks!

    A/C system - how to remove the cooling unit, evaporator, expansion valve

    Yes, I charged it and ran it. It cools but not as good as I was hoping for. I found out my evaporator core was leaking and that’s how I started working on the AC. Along with that I changed out the expansion valve, dryer and compressor as suggested. I wanted to make sure the AC was good for...

    A/C system - how to remove the cooling unit, evaporator, expansion valve

    I had issues with my AC and this thread was awesome. As far as oil, my new compressor that I didn’t really need cane pre oiled from Denso. My new Denso dryer needed oil and I think it needed almost all of the bottle. Something like 8 oz. don’t remember. The dryer came with instructions on...

    Third Brake Light Not Working on 1996

    FYI, I bought a Red waterproof LED strip on Amazon for $8. I removed the old brake strip and replaced it with the LEDs. It was easy, bright and has been working great for over a year now. I saw it on YouTube on another vehicle. Hope this helps.

    Pesky Heater Hose (PHH) et al.

    My small contribution to the PHH challenge. I’ve attached pictures for illustration purposes. I had green coolant and a pending trip to Overland Expo so I decided to tackle it and change to Toyota red and do other things like the PHH while at it. Reminder to drain the block when flushing the...

    Aftermarket Antenna Questions

    Actually yes! It has held up very well. I forgot to mention in my post that in order to lock the antenna in place, I used a conduit lock nut. The location of the antenna on the 80 made it hard at least for me to tighten the antenna in place. I used the conduit lock nut under to help brace...

    Bypass Heater control valve?

    Hello Joe, I found a new Toyota valve for $55. I believe I found it at Mag Engines. They shipped it from somewhere in the Middle East. It was a genuine Toyota part. The aftermarket I had was no good. I didn’t want to take a chance.

    What Did You Do with Your 80 This Weekend?

    So I decided to take vacation to paint my Cruiser with tintable Upol Raptor liner. I love the product but it did not go as planned. I mixed Sunset Bronze Mica with Raptor liner and sprayed ! Needles to say the color that can out was not what I expected. Need to figure out if I can paint over...

    Aftermarket Antenna Questions

    That looks pretty sweet! And small so it won’t get damaged ! If mine gets damaged, it will be easy now to replace with this or any other screw on antenna.
