Bought accelerator cable and will install when it gets here (dang with the waiting time)

Where did you source the accelerator cable from?

Got a call this morning that my turbo was ready. I was going to go pick it up later in the week but I was too excited and got it back today. I have some Toyota gaskets on the way for the oil and coolant.
Oil: 15471-58010
Water: 16347-42020 (x2)

I’m guessing now is a good time to install my EGT and boost probes.
Also on my to-do list is to do my water pump. My coolant seems to be showing signs that either someone mixed colors or the pump needs a replacing.

Led these clowns around Utah with my BJ74

 

[saltycoconuts]

That looks good!

Thanks! I really want to get it in but I’m on the fence if I should replace the head gasket.

Hello,

Is there a part number for those mats?

Hello,

No part number....I made them. Thinking about producing them depending on how many I need to make. There doesn't seem to be a lot of mats available for these trucks....LHD ones at least.

 

[Flynn]

If you're interested in RHD mats you should contact beno. If he gets another 6 or 7 people interested he might do another order. There's 2 people, myself included, on the list now.

 

[JuanJ]

Hello,

Thanks for the heads up.

@jfrench Change that oil pressure sending switch and/or install a T for a real oil pressure gauge while you can get to it!. Otherwise it is impossible to get to!

I put in a BSPT tee and then a NPT adapter to connect mechanical gauge.

Astute recommendation

I put in a BSPT tee and then a NPT adapter to connect mechanical gauge.

Thanks for the recommendation

I already have an aftermarket electronic oil pressure gauge plumbed in at the rear of the block. Maybe I should change the switch for reliable redundancy.

Tidied things up yesterday while awaiting parts. There was oil residue caked on everything

 

[jfrench]

More cleaned up, rebuilt and new bits and pieces
