Thanks for the reply. Will be going for it tomorrow. Will report back.

I purchased the wrong injectors (23250-20010) for my truck and am wondering if they are compatible with a N/A 5vz? They are for the 3.0 engine in a van or Camry. 15cc more than stock. Any helpful input would be appreciated.

Ever since I installed an Ultragauge I've noticed it affecting my ignition timing. I did a bit of searching but came up with nothing. At a stop light my timing wanders between 9.5 - 12, but when my turn signal is on it jumps back and forth from 9.5 to 11 and so on. My inexperienced guess would...

So I’m not getting any voltage at the signal wire but I found the culprit for the starter not turning even with the switch to be the starter itself. The internal contacts of signal wire connector on the starter are broken only making contact if the connector is positioned just right. I’m picking...

The contacts inside the solenoid looked almost brand new, previous previous owner replaced the starter about 3 years ago. When overriding the fuse block with the switch didn’t work it made me think only two things could be wrong. One being that the terminal on the starter for the signal wire is...

No luck with the switch either... Starter is getting power 12.5v, signal wire is definitely getting power... I've reverted everything back to the way it was when it was running. DC'd new lights, removed new wiring. Kind of lost and out of ideas at this point.. It is safe to say this is a...

The factory cables were not removed. Button is going in now. Will report back with outcome. Thanks for the replies. -Charlie

I forgot to mention that before beginning the install I noticed that my new engine ground (alternator mounting bracket) > chassis (driver inner fender) of the big 3 upgrade was connected wrong. I accidentally routed it to the negative battery terminal on the battery. I re-routed the wire to the...

After installing a pair of sequential turn signals on the rear fenders of my truck (for towing) I go to start the truck up and the engine barely cranks over. Continues to crank for 5 seconds and finally picks up momentum and starts up. All the symptoms of a dead battery (which is plausible...

I'll take it all. I'm in Seattle Washington.

brillo_76 I do have a couple cans of metallic silver. I wish I knew how to edit photos. Would make this whole situation a lot easier. Thanks for all of the replies. Hoping for more suggestions. These “skinny flares“ are SR5 flares, correct?

Previous owner did a number on this truck before I got ahold of it, one of which being the cheapest Maaco paint job in an ivory-ish cream thats so bad you think of spoiled milk when you see it. New paint is on the to-do list but those type of funds are not available ATM so I figured I’d at least...

Thanks JD914!

RotaryDreamz I would love it if you could snap a couple pics for me. I’m beyond embarrassed to say it but I’m somewhat stumped.

I’ve recently built a 17ft car trailer to haul all the crap out of my driveway (cars, washing machines, etc.) and was gifted a new set of Airlift 1000 load leveling springs #60743 designed for stock springs. My problem is I don’t have stock springs. Currently running Superflex’s. When I had the...
