What was wrong with that rig?
 
29k dayum.
 
Maybe more chat thread topic but...


Helping a friend find a 100

2 at 25k (06/07) That have 56 and 67k one owner super clean miles. Worth the premium?

Or two at 17.5 (06/07) that have 185k miles and recent timing belt and water pump services, new tires, and other long term records.

Thoughts on a preference? Why?
Anyone got a super clean 03+ Under 150k miles close to 16k
 
56,000 miles is awfully appealing. That said I’m thinking at $25,000 you are $5000 from a 100,000 mile early 200.

That’s a tough one.

What’s his plan? If it is as a 3rd vehicle to build and wheel I’d spend Less up front and get the Slee “yes please” package

fixed it.
 
Plan has segued to it being his DD so not an extra or 3rd vehicle and reason he wants an 03 or newer now. Wants it for beach in summer and mtns in winter. Seems to have no plans for lift and mods but maybe a bumper and springs in time. Maybe.

I like Chris’ plan. Even found him an 03 with 120 for 12.5 but he doesnt like dvd players or minty green.

I had same thoughts on being so close to a 200 price but his target is 17k or under; barely considering jumping to 25 for creampuff, doubt 30 is in the cards but will mention. Thanks
 
Here’s a weird one for ya.. I was driving today with a/c going and decieded to turn it off and roll down the windows, heck it was just 85. Just about as soon as I turned off the ac the truck started acting like it was running out of fuel. I was only doing about 40 mph and had a little over 1/4 tank of fuel. Well it died but would restart but run like crap. It died a couple times but I was able to get it to a parking lot. It sure felt like a fuel pump going out. Luckily I had bought a spare denso on sale a few months ago. When I pulled the lines at the top of the pump one spit out quite a bit of gas, I assume a return line with pressure on it ? Being kinda low on fuel that’s all I could think of. Anyway I replaced the pump and after adding fuel and getting the pump primed (?) it started and seemed to run fine. But I only drove it a couple miles home. I found a receipt where the pump had been replaced about 35k ago.which isn’t many miles. ( the P.O. paid $985 to have it done CRAZY). The old pump was a denso . I see no way turning off the A/C had anything to do with it. I found a old thread where Andy replaced his pump and fixed his issues.. I’m heading out on a 3k mile trip Monday andsure hope this has fixed whatever it was. Do electric pumps normally just go out like that? It almost acted like a vapor lock situation.. do these rigs do that ? Is there a way to test my old pump ? This could have been way worse as I was only a couple miles from home, caught a ride to get the 60 and go work on it and had a pump in hand. A week later would have been bad. Any thoughts ?

That sounds like the exact same issue(s) i had, and that are prevalent among 100s based on the amount of threads out there.

In warm weather, I will never let my truck get down to 1/4 tank. I think the pump overheats and further exaggerates some pressure issues that are inherent on the 100. Also, on long runs, and especially on a run that changes elevation, i always pop my gas cap when i stop for a while.

Based on experience, if you had popped your gas cap and let it sit for 15 mins or so, you could have cranked it up and rolled out, no issues...
 
Andy I was thinking the same thing. When it puked out of the fuel line, I opened the gas cap and it stopped, but may have run out of pressure on its own. My 60 did that back when the charcoal canister messed up, and built a lot of pressure in the tank. I sure hope the pump fixes it, and great tip on keeping over 1/4 tank of fuel in it and releasing pressure periodically.as I was about that when it happened. Check out the receipt from a P.O. ( not John) anyone who has replaced a pump in a 100 knows how easy it is and how he was screwed on parts as well as labor

And you sure wouldn’t think you’d also replace the fuel gauge as a matter of course.........
