The Big Day

Cool. Glad to hear she is running cooler now. Ya, we played around Deep Creek and the Crab Flats area over the weekend and had a blast...The weather is getting nice a crisp up in Green Valley. So, when is the next PM day ? I really want to pull of the throttle body and clean it...How bad was it to do ?

TB is cake, just remember the order to do everything and dont break the air intake hose when taking off the air filter. I did a little write up on mine that might be helpful.

You guys need to do a write up for each maint/fix for our section and dumb it down for mechanical declined people like me.

I rolled 100k coming home from Death Valley about 4 years ago. It's got 118 now so not accumulating miles very fast!

I saw my FJ60 roll 200k and it's at 220k now. I thought this was a lot, until a guy in the 60 section documented 440k on an all original motor-he is the original owner.

These things are just work horses and don't really have a defined life span. They last until you get tired of taking care of them.

I'm just shy of 190K and probably won't see 200K for quite some time given the limited driving the truck is getting these days.
