coolant

At the risk of embarrassing myself (I should be used to it by now), and in the spirit of saving YOU from the same troubles...make sure your Thermostat Jiggle Valve is at the TOP! For sometime (too long) I have been unhappy with my engine temps. They were never bad/too high (never exceeding...

Hey all. I've searched through a few threads regarding ideal coolant level but many of them discussed peripheral issues related to coolant, not my primary question. What is the ideal level of coolant in the reservoir and when? I have a 1999 with 260k on it. I had a shop replace the radiator...

So I'm overheating (shocked face!) and I need to know where to look next. I replaced a factory rad with the CSF when the factory one started leaking. Coolant is flushed with 50/50 Toyota red and doesn't appear to be leaking anywhere. New foam around the entire rad, shroud and fan in great...

Hey All, I recently got an entire throttle body from a junkyard that was from a 02' Sequoia. Everything looks the same as my 98 LX470 throttle body, except for this metal screw in pipe (as pictured) that is in addition to the regular body. Can you guys tell me if I can just go ahead and unscrew...

Cool outside but going up over the mountain I saw up to 205 F. (2008 gx470) Radiator was supposedly replaced by the place we bought it. They clearly mixed in green but who knows how much. Water pump should be less than 10k old according to the service sticker. What are the first Places to...

I wasn't able to find any posts dealing with the 1HD-T (HDJ81) regarding what the proper coolant level should be and when to check it. I also looked at the FSM for the 1HD-T (page CO-3 and CO-4) and couldn't find any more elaboration on this... So, when I check the coolant in the plastic...
