    Anyone done a Texas inspection recently?

    I’m putting my engine back together, (1994) and Im waffling on putting the EGR back on. It’s disabled either way, but I’d love to just put the block off plates on the head and intake for a number of reasons. Since we are all over 25 years now, the reg says we get just a “safety” inspection, but...

    Putting the head back on my 80 this weekend - Got a question about head bolts.

    As I was prepping parts and tools, I started thinking about the disassembly and I remembered that meant to ask the gurus here about the head bolts. I have new bolts and washers going on, but when I pulled my head, there were no washers. Im 100% certain of this. Additionally, a second head...

    SOLD  Texas: 1994 80 Series Suspension (Springs, Front Control Arms)

    I don’t know why anyone would want the springs, but when I looked through the parting out forum, there were a lot of people asking, so I figured I would offer them up here. I don’t need to get rich on them. You pay shipping. I like beer or coffee in return. All four springs, front and rear...

    Wanted  Texas: 1994 (any 1FZ) Cylinder Head

    My machinist just let me know I’ve got a number of small cracks, so my original is done for. Anyone know of anything available? I know I can still get a new one from Toyota, but its 1500+ shipping, then machine work, assembly, etc and that’s a big investment (though not one I’ve ruled out) for...

    Need a 1FZ Cylinder Head

    There isn’t a lot of activity on this portion of the forum, but I figured I’d give it a shot anyway. My machinist just let me know I’ve got a number of small cracks, so my original is done for. Anyone know of anything available? I know I can still get a new one from Toyota, but its 1500+...

    Coolant Leak at the Back of the Engine

    OK folks, I pride myself on using search, and looking for the already answered questions that seem to cover almost everything on here, however I've hit a bit of a brick wall. As the title says, I've got a coolant leak up at the back of the engine. I've already bypassed the rear heater core to...

    1994 Dual Battery Setup Questions

    What are you kids with 1993-1994 1FZs doing with the AC hose on the passenger side? I’m pretty sure I can bend it, but I’m kinda hoping there is a more elegant solution? I’ve dealt with the resonator and PAIR hose situation with a Napa radiator hose, but this AC line is a hassle. I’ve already...

    Tail Light/Brake Light help

    ok kids, my tail lights stopped working sometime in the last few weeks. 2 weeks ago a friend told me I had a tail light out, I couldn’t replicate the issue. Two days ago, I was in the field and had the wife take the truck in for inspection, and it passed with flying colors save for inop...

    Ill planned brake rebuild -

    I say I’ll planned because while I have the entire setup to do pads and rotors, I didn’t order the calipers. I ALMOST did, and probably because I didn’t, the seals on my right rear caliper are leaking, and also the bleed screw is welded in. So even if I replace the seals, I can’t get the bleed...

    Exhaust Flange Gaskets -1994 1FZ

    am i the only person ever to replace these? I did multiple searches and couldn't find a thread, and I find a ton of confusion on the online parts pictures. So here's the deal, I've had a stubborn exhaust leak for a while I finally dug into it this weekend, and the gaskets are completely...

    driveline noise (whine and maybe clunk) under load thoughts?

    I have this noise, my initial thoughts that it was on decel were mistaken, I may have been masking the sound under wind noise while it was still warm outside. So here's the deal- I just replaced the tires on the ol girl last night, new ones are MUCH quieter, so I'm able to hear clearly a wining...

    80 series failure. Headgasket?

    I I've been driving my 94 Due to some unforeseen circumstances with what I thought was a failed head gasket. I pulled the plugs today because I'm finally getting to the point that I can fix it. So I compression checked it, on my gauge it read over 200 psi on the first five cylinders, like 110 on...
