I want to thank you for the information provided on this posting. I had exactly the same problem as described by lancruza on my 1995 LC and I followed the same steps he did. I was able to swap the relays and my dash board lights, side marker lights and tail lights came back. What it is...
Toyota OEM shocks it is.
Thanks for all the replies. After listening to your wisdom I have decided to go with the Toyota OEM shock, after all is a 15 year car and the original shocks did an excellent jobs for all these years. Now, does anyone have a good set of OME 861/862 spring for sale...
Just noticed a puddle of oil (clear and it almost smells like brake fluid) on the garage floor. At first after smelling it I though it was brake fluid, but after close inspection, I noticed the oil was coming from the rear DS shock.
Now I need to replace the shock and probably will be...
Is the bulb really out?
I am still not convinced, at least based on my personal experience that the bulb is actualy out. Here is what happened to mine: At around 150K the bulb went totally out and I was not too concerned since I know when I am on "D", one day last fall I went hunting and on the...
I just wanted to give an update on the resolution of my problem which I think it could help others. The commonality here is that the trucks have been sitting for a while and then started to run rough at low idle and giving code 25.
I looked in the FSM and there is a troubleshooting procedure...
Thanks for the reply
Moj and Supercarrera,
Thanks for the replies, my symptons are starting to sound more like the problems you are describing. I don't think is the head gasket, I just had a new radiator installed last winter and they did a head gasket pressure test and confirmed that HG is...
Hi Guys,

While visiting a supplier of old Chevy parts I found a section called "Old Home Remedies" They list in here old remedies used by people back in the '50s for fixing and troubleshooting car problems. One of the remedies they list is a very simple method for determining if you have a head gasket...
Same problem, Mickey Mouse solution
I have had this problem since I got my 94 cruiser. I tried everything from cleaning the drain tubing with a welding liner, blow air, magic encantations and nothing seemed to work. So I finally got so tired of this I went I got myself a small roll of the...
Hi Eric,
I will not be available tonite due to another prior commintment so don't go out of your way to load the tires all the way here to Boise. If you have some pictures that show the tread left on them that would be enough for me to see if they would work for me.
Thanks,
Antonio
How much left on the tires
Hi Eric,
How much thread is left on the tires?
Pictures? What model tires?
I am located In Eagle, not too far from you.
Thanks,
Antonio
Yes, the Napa Gold 1515 has an anti-drain back valve, if you look at the filter it is the orange element inside the filter, also if you at the box it labels the components of the filter and points to the anti drain valve.

Same problem similar solution
I had the same problem with my DS mirror, it was constantly shaking so I decided to take it off and see what the problem was. There were two problems: First problem was that one of the hanging tabs broke off and the thread for the screw at the bottom that holds the...
I have noticed that my seat belts don't fully retract after I get out of the truck, they always stay out and I end up hitting the buckle when closing the door.
Is this a common problem for 80's cruisers?
How do I fix this problem?
Thanks,
They die too fast.
I had them in the wife's minivan and they died within six months. I think they are bright, but don't last too long.
I complained to Sylvania and their anwser was: Tuff luck!.
I have the HIR in my 94 both High and Low beam and they are very britgh. I got them in Japan last...

This one is the PHH or should I say FHH!. For the looks of it I would say it was replaced at one time in the past with cheap $0.50 clamps and the cheapest heater hose available. I think the original clamps were the cotter pin type.
The second photo shows that the actual...
