Here the new ones are only about $20.00 but the aftermarket long ones were from about $70.00 earlier then droped to $50 to $60.00 as more started to make them.Hello bbd, I used a magnet on a flex shaft that I got from the local hardware store to pull out the valve . The valves had some scoring on both but they looked fine. How do I get my hands on the longer valves to replace these with? I will call Toyota to see how much new ones are.
Thanks

I have not heard anyone having problems with the filter relief valve it is quite common however to have problems with the pump valve often with spectacular results. If you just lintch the filter bore and inspect it I feel this would be ok its easy to inspect.Then oil the bore and piston and replace it. You will need a small mirror to inspect the bore in the pump housing. If it cleans up ok then use a new standard toyota piston and spring.The aftermarket longer pistons are available from Oz , perhaps someone with a lathe could make you one if you have a contact. The standard spring is used with these as the longer piston just holds it square where the bore is not worn. I posted a drawing of one a fair while back in diesel parts for sale when I was trying to sell one for a bloke that ordered it and then never went ahead. There was a post some time back on this topic also. Generally the bore suffers the wear as the piston is much harder than the aliminium pump housing.
