I'm planning on replacing the oil in the front diff. I've replaced it 2 years ago, and at that time I've installed brand new washers.
I'm not this cheap, it's just it's not available in this 3rd world country I'm living in anymore, and would be $50 to ship it from a normal country.
Can I get...
So my 100 has developed a strange growling sound.. It happens around 40-60mph & goes away above or below that. Interestingly if I'm slightly turning to the right (like a long right curve in the road) it goes away completely. But when going straight or turning left it is there. If I put the...
Hi!
I'm trying to get my AC recharged and the FSM talks about an RSF and an ISF Condenser Model. What's the difference between the two & how to tell which one I have?
Cheers
Hello!
So I've bought a provent 200 a good 1.5years earlier and never was able to decide how to mount it. But at my last oil change I really feel like I need to.
Does anyone happen to have any pictures of a mount? Preferably in an ahc deleted left hand drive 100? (My best bet is to somehow...
So I've destroyed my grease gun today, because I couldn't get the old cartridge out and was already in a bad mental state (after an oil change:D & pumping a couple litres of oil accidentaly on the floor)
Please help me decide which grease to buy to grease to driveshaft u-joints and slip jokes...
Hi!
Does anyone happen to know what is the factory color of the backlight of the speedo? There are two types of bulb available from Toyota (Blue and White if I see it correctly), and was wondering which bulb they come from the factory - as mine seems to be more of a yellowish/white than any...
So with the diesel's air filter, I was wondering if there is a better way of sealing the filter to the upper part of the air filter box? Perhaps 20 years have done its job on the rubber/gasket, but I'm not quite sure it seals 100% anymore - there is a bit of dust to be found in the "clean part"...
Hi!
My 2000 LC has developed an issue.
Today after the walking the dogs & going home it throw a check engine light and went into limp mode. I've tried to shut down / restart the car, but the issue was still there.
When I got home I've read the codes with TS, and this is what came up:
After...
Hello Everyone!
I'm (illegally) here because the power antenna behaves strangely on my 100, but I think the 80's (wish I had one) have the same thing basicly. Please be gentle with me:) I already have an IFS truck, so can't take any more bad things:D
So my problem is that when I power on the...
Hello!
So I've replaced the mast in my power antenna (was broken since buying the truck). For this I had to open up the motor and pull the broken nylon cable from it. (maybe I've assembled it incorrectly?)
After getting the new mast and feeding it into the motor (turning off radio), it pulls...
Hi All!
I'm on the edge of leaving for a road trip in a couple of hours, and I've noticed a noisy alternator. There is no way to fix this right now, so I was wondering if all else fails, is there a way to run the waterpump (on an 1HD-FTE, but I guess 1HZ and 1HD varriants would be the same) by...
Hello All!
I was wondering if the 285/75r16 tires can be fitted with 16mm snowchains or if that would hit something?
Looking at the car it looks like the front is a no-go, but it might be okay on the rears?
cheers
Hello!
I've just bought a Kenwood DMX-8019DABS headunit which has apple wireless carplay. But it says that for it to work wirelessly, I need to tap into the vehicle's speed sensor.
Now the question is, does anybody know where I can find such a signal somewhere behind the dash, so I can tap...
Hello!
Nowdays there are lots of foggy days here where I live, and I've discovered that my new to me LC100 is doing a weird thing.
It seems like the left headlight is shining to the right side of the road, while the right headlight is beaming the left side - so they're basicly in a cross.
Is...
Hello!
So I've bought the truck with all depo lights on the front. On the way home the left turn signal housing popped out and was only there by the wire. I bought a replacement depo light & while it doesn't pop out all the way, it pops out a bit & I don't like this.
I was wondering if a...
Hello!
It seems like 90% of the cars, especially the valuable trucks have altered ODO readings on them here in EUROPE. So it's a habit that when a car goes to a dealer, the dealer then "spins back" the ODO a couple 10-100k's. Basicly this is what makes their profit. The laws here in EUROPE are...
Hello All!
So recently my transmission has developed some strange behaviour, maybe it is because it is cold outside?
Most of the time, when I'm going slow, very easy on the throttle, what happens is that when it shifts from 1st to 2nd, it is a harsh and fast shift followed by a clunk.
It is a...
Hello!
So a couple of months ago I've deleted the AHC & installed an Ironman lift kit. I had to do this, because all four rams were rusted away, and so were the globes, actuators and lines - It would've cost a fortune to replace all of these.
Anyway, the thing with the IM kit is, it is just...
