    3vze Top End Knocking and Cylinder Compression

    Recently as in, in the last year, the top end on my 3vze was taken to a machine shop and surfaced by the PO's. Not to say they did a s***ty job but I have had to redo every single other fix theyve done since buying this 4runner in april/may. It was pretty clear when buying it but mostly a...

    Warm No-Spark Condition, Possible Sensor Issue

    Title sums it up in the best way possible, but I am working on an 89 4runner 3.0 automatic. Among the other neglect related Toyota issues, my main problem now is that I am having spark cut off once the engine reaches operating temperatures (Im assuming). This issue came on maybe a month or two...

    3VZE Timing, Top End Rebuilding, and Setting Idle

    3vze. Zero compression on driver side cylinders.

    I have a 1993 4Runner with the 3.0l v6. It seemed to have a new lack of power last week, along with a low idle. Then Friday morning it died leaving my house, and wouldn’t start again. I have spark at all six plugs, I’m also getting fuel. Further diagnosis revealed that there is ZERO...

    A340H Transfer Stuck in 4Lo after Trans swap

    Hey all- after a ~8 year time period away from Toyota 4x4s (well, all 4x4s, sadly) I recently picked up a 94 4Runner with the 3VZE and A340H trans/transfer. I got it at a very good price with low (for the year) miles mainly because the transmission, while completely functional, had a nice crack...
