I'd look at o2 sensors based on codes 25,26. Lean can cause a knock triggering code 12.

It could be other sensors like a maf sensor or such but something is causing you to run rich and lean.

Clean your maf sensor- they are sensitive buggers.

Unplugged and cleaned the O2 sensor connection. Seems better.

Put in the new rear dif drain and fill plugs- these are much more low profile and hopefully will not get spun loose on the trail like the original version.

Keep an eye on the drain plug. Mine backed out several times, but caught it before it fell out. Ended up tack it in with a welder, until that ground down from the rocks and then I just welded the plug in to keep it from falling out. I now have to drain the fluid by pulling the bottom diff stud.

My well pump died at 9:30 last night. Pulled it this morning with my pops help and was all buttoned up by 11:30.

270 ft down. I went "full Amish" on it and rigged up this contraption to make it easier. Sure beat dead-lifting it (which I did for the first hundred feet)!

Been wanting to get rid of that ornamental grass anyhow....

This is a big fear of mine. My pump is getting on 14 years old (no idea how long they typically last) and I suspect my well is probably 200+ ft deep as well. We have no information - the house was a foreclosure. I guess the county might be able to tell us?

Either way - is it just a “simple matter” of pulling 200 some odd ft of wire and hose out of the ground?

Ours was 22 years old judging by the date of manufacture on the pump. Technically the pump was probably fine - a wire wore through from rubbing on the side of the casing.

There is no way I was going to put a 22 year old pump back down when I already had it up.

It is not technically difficult - just a lot of bull work. My dad has done it quite a few times and knew what to do, I read this last night and found it pretty good.

How to Replace a Submersible Well Pump

How to Replace a Submersible Well Pump: Ok! This is not an easy task, and I recommend that anyone thinking about doing it AT LEAST consider having the well pump identified as the failed component by a professional prior to undertaking it. In my case, the water in my house stopped work…

Its too bad I'm on city water. We have so much ground water i bet I could dig a well by hand.

Find a friend with a tractor or backhoe...

Had my well pump go out in mid-March. Lasted 20 years, so I can't complain too much. Got lucky and got it repaired like 2 days before everything started shutting down.

Son's truck is back from paint. I'm happy with how it came out. Still waiting on a badge or two for the rear gate. Upgraded to clear corners and turn signals and LED tails. Had the wheels and center caps done to match the bumpers and metal on the running boards and flare transitions. Lighting is crap, looks better in person imo.

Was tired of not making progress on the LX. Decided to try to diesel the old rear heater lines out ... NOPE. Finally gave up and took a cutting wheel to them. Mods will have to be made to install the new lines. I just want this part done so I can move forward.

Then the tab on the side of the oil pressure unit broke off. Yet another part I will need. The tab is rusted onto the part inside the plastic connector.

Then went to power wash off the truck. No worries there, but now need to get the rocks out of the window runs and I have a rock under the LF brake pad as well. Now I know why Andy avoids the MUD. Need to get that front locker issue sorted asap. Don't like not having my safety blanket.

 

[jamarquardt22]

Mud is liquid sand paper. It goes places and kills parts. Your better off on the rock hoppy trails.

First trip in the Silver 4Runner and I fried the alternator going through a mud pit, just wanted to christen it and get it over with lol rocks are much better then mud... I mean look at the forum name lol
