    SQOD Squad - Stupid Question Of the Day

    I've searched but I can't find it. I've crossed over the 100K point, so I know it's time to do a refresh on the engine: radiator, water pump, idler/tensioner, serp belt, etc. I'm looking for the list of parts (part #s would even be better) of "while I'm in there" to order up now. I also have...

    Article: Why the 200 Series?

    Proof that cars are a terrible investment. $20K invested in the stock market would earn about 8% average, and at 27 years it would be worth ~$160K. He's probably spent quite a bit on maintenance on the car since new as well, which makes it even worse.

    Intermittent "Nothing Happens" when Start Button is pressed

    My battery is an AGM Odyssey, installed in 2017, terminals still look new. The yellow tint is the battery protector spray stuff.

    Intermittent "Nothing Happens" when Start Button is pressed

    I totally agree that this sounds like a poor/intermittent battery connection. The system reboot in your previous post is what happens when the battery has been reconnected, so that's a dead giveaway that it's a battery issue. I have the same exact Slee connectors & tray, have had it installed...

    200 Series LED lighting upgrades

    I've replaced every bulb possible with LEDs from SuperBrightLEDs.com. Probably 30% of the time now when I get out of the truck and try to lock the doors by pushing on any of the little buttons on the doors, nothing happens. Doesn't matter which button I push, or how many times I push. Nothin. I...

    Manglers "Flying Egg" Resto-Build

    Went through my contacts... Nothin, sorry. Maybe try FB or LinkedIn, neither of which I use.

    Manglers "Flying Egg" Resto-Build

    Ha I haven't seen or heard from Karl for at least 15 years. Last I knew he was working on installing a Supra engine in that white 4Runner, but no Idea if he ever got it done. I also wonder where Charlie Horn is these days. Welcome to the white Cruiser club.

    200 Series LED lighting upgrades

    @FullyLitLED 2015 200-series LC I am sick of the cheap LEDs I bought from SuperBright interfering with the remote locking/unlocking, so I'd like to purchase a kit from you, assuming it fixes the problem. I searched here and don't see a direct link to order, please PM with prices and how to...

    Wiring help/question

    No you shouldn't do this. I'm assuming you have a 20A fuse on the circuit. Now consider the situation where there is a fault to ground on the 3rd light wire which is much smaller, let's say a 16 ga. The problem is that your protection on that circuit will allow 20A of current, on a much lighter...

    Tire rotation

    I started with the rod and extension from a mini truck jack kit, out of a truck I parted out. I welded those together at the joint, then the rest is various washers and a bolt, a piece of flat bar stock, and a couple of pieces of copper pipe. The copper pipe pieces are free to spin between the...

    SQOD Squad - Stupid Question Of the Day

    It's probably fine, but yeah... I wouldn't install that either. The consequences of "it's not fine" are pretty steep, not worth the risk.

    Tire rotation

    I also always do a 5-tire rotation, for all the reasons stated here. BTW: Tire rotations are another time when the QuickJack is a huge time saver. Lowering the spare with that janky crank provided in the kit kinda sucks. So I made my own crank, it hangs in the garage right at the spot where I...

    Post your wheeling damage pics

    You'd have to start by having someone discharge and and remove all the refrigerant, then have it fully charged again once you put it back together. I'd start watching YouTube videos on paintless dent repair.

    Any QuickJack users?

    Not sure how I missed the earlier messages here, I just read them all. As said, the issue shown in the video above was entirely user error, not a fault of the QuickJack. Used and maintained properly, it won't do that, no way. Once the vehicle is lifted and the safety bars engaged, hydraulics...

    Any QuickJack users?

    It's just Avery film/wrap. I bought a 2' x 5' piece, it just barely covered the windows. It was mostly an experiment to improve privacy, but I do like it so it's still on 5 years later. @Sandroad - Younger? I doubt that. I just applied for Medicare last week, hitting the big 6-5 soon.

    Battery Dying Fun Times FJ62

    The DOME fuse also keeps the clock running (IIRC). There could be a leak in the voltage regulator of the alternator.

    Help with purchase

    I'd say that's pretty darned good for those miles. I did own an '11 at one point, in that interior color, and it really did show the dirt and grime. Just an FYI.

    Battery Dying Fun Times FJ62

    . 2 amps (200 mA) is still higher than it should be, I would start pulling fuses until the drain goes away so you'll know at least what circuit it's on. Should only be about 20-30 mA, just for the clock and the engine ECU. GF's battery in her CRV would die if we didn't drive it every day, and...

    Add Heated Steering Wheel?

    13+ doesn't have a switch to shut off the inverter, it's on all the time with the ignition.
