that's what I'm thinking ill flush it tonight after work and see how it does

hey all so ive owned my second 4runner for a year and a half now, its a 98 sr5 v6 4wd with 255k on the clock. i have a 3inch suspension lift no body lift and i have 35s. i recently added a trany cooler its the b&m don't remember the number off hand but it was highly recommended so i installed...

the 3rd gen was started in the 90s how many 90s trucks/ suvs have electric fans??? the eclectic fan is a proven improvement that's why most trucks/suvs have them today. they would go to a more expensive redesign for nothing. the alternator draw is the dumbest argument ever that's not how...

Yeah thats no joke. I found alot of loose bolts in there and it makes me want to go over every bolt on the truck now! I already checked all the suspension bolts when i did my ball joins and lift. But i want to go over it all now

Finally fixed it guys.my crank sprocket was f**kd up! Crank bolt was loose i guess last guy in there didnt tighten it enough. The sprocket was able to move and it ate it up. So new timing belt kit crank sproket and crank key way.now she runs awesome way more power starts right up no rich smell...

i got some injectors and had them rebuilt by witchhunter like 4 months ago. i finally got some of it fixed. got another ecm and now i have injector pulse! but found that the injector had 8 ohms the others all had 13.4-14.8 ohms. i threw in an old injector that i knew was ok. truck runs good now...

i changed them for maintance and the misfire started one day out of no where i have pulled the plugs and swaped plugs and the wires are in the corect location. im getting desperate why is my runner a pos and my wifes is perfrect never has an issue

i actually did swap the igniter with another one thinking maybe it would help didnt help. i will try and see if its missing any teeth. but it is strange that the issue was only sometimes and now its all the time. i did change the cam sensor about 2 weeks ago but no fix there either. im starting...

ecm did not fix it. ran new wire from ecm to injector. still no pulse. do i have another bad ecu? what am i missing here? are there any other signals i need to be checking?

Update. It started missing hard on me constantly now. That actually really helped diagnose it. I put a noid light on the injector and found 5 was not getting any pulse. It had power but the injector is controled using ground from the ecm. I checked at the ecm and found that it was not sending...

Changed my maf to the 99+ style and am going to clean the conector for the ecm and put some electric greese on it

Update. I ran top engine cleaner. And then had to take a trip a few days latter. The drive was about 3 hours one way. About an hour in the Truck had a strange almost hickup i guess and the check eng light turned off and truck ran great the whole way there and back! But the next day didnt want to...

I think there is a company that sells kits pretty cheap already. But im sure people would buy it

i just cut some mdf and it worked great

I did a leak down test on the 2 bad cylinders and it seems i might have some leaking intske valves. I could hear it leaking when i opened the throttle body. The tested showed like 20% leak but it was in the green part of the gauge so i guess that means it should be in the ok but i dont like that...
