I'm retired so pretty much whenever I want. The real question is how much $$ do you spend on repairs. It'd be tough to keep it going if I had to daily drive to work and had no time to keep up with getting things right. I recently spent a few weeks struggling with an overactive EGR. Following the 2F emissions FSM I tested the EGR modulator and the EGR valve and the EGR vacuum switching valve(VSV). 2 out of 3 were bad. I spent some $ on a mityvac handheld vacuum gauge. Then replaced the VSV and the modulator. Finally...today I have no stupid EGR hesitation. I used this EGR modulator bought new from Toyota. It's from an 80 series thank @OSS for the info.How many hours a week you work on your truck?
and I installed this VSV from amazon...https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0814MPNFB?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1
that was a cheap vsv and worked good after switching the housings and adding new terminal ends:
