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...
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.
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...
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...
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.

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...
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...
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...
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...
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.
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...
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.
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.
. 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...
