    Help! EGR diagnostics. Am I an idiot?

    So I have zero idle on cold start. I also have a P0401 egr code. I’m assuming that’s what’s causing my idle issue. It idles, slightly rough, when warmed up. Going through the EGR diagnostics in my FSM and I’ve followed the steps. When I connect my vacuum pump to the egr on the right side and...

    Swapping my differentials to locking differentials

    Has anyone done a write up on here on swapping to locking diffs? Where to find harnesses and modules to remove from the diner rig? I’ve done a lot of searching and can’t find anything. Any help would be appreciated.

    EGR delete. I know, I know…

    Is there a solid write up for OBD2 EGR delete? All the threads I see have OBD1 and 2 all mixed together and it’s tough for my ADD ass to follow. Help please?

    GERRRRRTT!!!!!?????

    PFA IH8ers, I need some help. I “have” a noise in my front end that is pulling fibers out of my brain. It makes a GERRRRRT sound. It’s makes the sound for only a second, then disappears. It sounds like a bearing is grabbing ahold of a race and spinning it inside my front diff. Here’s where I...

    Starting the head gasket process.

    Starting the head gasket process. Any tips? It’s been at least 8 years since I’ve had a head off. I’m replacing every hose I find, in the process. Really wish I could relocate the fuel filter. Wish me luck!

    Repair manuals

    what repair manuals do y’all recommend? I’m about to replace my head gasket. I’m a pretty decent mechanics, but wanted a manual with the timing mark locations and other general timing info. Recommendations are always appreciated.

    Problems doing a compression test

    What the hell am I doing wrong? I’ve tried both a Mac tools compression tester and the cheap rental at O’reillys. Both of them won’t build pressure. It shoots up during the compression stroke, then goes back to zero. It does this on all 6 cylinders. What am I doing wrong?

    Flushed my heater core.

    It was pretty nasty. Was barely able to push air through it by blowing through a hose. Flows easy after flushing.

    Engine misfire, and I have no hair to pull out.

    In need of some advice. Backstory: I’ve been chasing a P0401 code. Took intake off, replaced all vacuum lines, cleared my vacuum port through the intake and relocated my VCV switch. Put it together and my light comes back on. No big deal. I kind of expected that. Vehicle ran fine. Fast...

    Vacuum port through intake.

    This is an information post for search reasons. I recently had my intake off for maintenance and to diagnose an egr insufficient flow, code P0401. The vacuum pass through port was clogged and I drilled it out. Seems a 1/16 drill bit fits the port perfectly. I wasn’t 100% sure that was my only...

    Part identification

    Can anyone tell me what this part is on my intake? I put my elbow where it didn’t belong.

    Dry start-up

    Anyone else have a problem with dry start up every time they start their cruiser? I’m new to the 4.5, and am not familiar with what is normal at start up. It builds oil pressure pretty quick, but it’s the two seconds of my engine sounding like it has no oil that makes my eye twitch. Input?

    Heater valve 90 degree hose

    Hey guys. I know parts for our rigs are getting harder and harder to get ahold of. I haven’t even checked to see if the hose on the passenger side of the heater valve is still available from Toyota, but I had a GM water pump hose sitting in the tool box that was a near perfect replacement. I had...

    Newb

    Hey, all! New member here. Recently purchased a 1996 LX450. This purchase is about 4years in the making. I didn’t know what a Landcruiser/LX450 was prior to buying my old(98) 4Runner. I immediately wished I would have bought one, instead. Figured I’d make the best of the 4Runner for a while...
