aontkos My apologies I haven't had an opportunity to thank you for your insight. It is definitely helpful as has everyone else's. Yes I have definitely learned a lot from this forum these past two days. I'm not in CA but apparently finding a mechanic who will work on an exhaust is close to...

Roland_007 I bought my 2000 4Runner SR5, Automatic 4WD at 190k miles and some work needed for $3250.00 8 mos ago. Just an FYI.

gamefreakgc I went on a mission today and found a place where I bought a brand new heavy duty battery for $84 with a 2 yr lifespan. $64 less than Advance Auto Parts. I'm letting run now after changing the old battery out. Still have to see how it drives.

thenightman Thanks so much for your insight. Yeah I had the same P0420, "catalytic converter efficiency" code. Based on the pictures I posted and from what I'm learning, it seems like my best bet is to get what's called a cat back and the exhaust manifold. I don't know. I am definitely on a...

octanejunkie yes I know this is not going to be a cheap fix but I need to try and find the parts needed for a decent price. This is my only form of transportation for work so I need to get my truck running properly. I'm hoping if I do then perhaps the cost of Labor won't be as expensive. I would...

octanejunkie. My original post I bought my 2000 T4R pre-owned 8 months ago but unfortunately the person I bought it from did a crap job at maintaining it apparently. I just found out the Cat converter was welded back on both sides so my truck is now struggling to drive normally because the cat...

Hello everyone - I'm new to this app/forum. I joined this forum in hopes to find a good solution to my "00" T4R issues. I have a 2000 4Runner that I bought pre-owned 8 months ago. I love this ride but unfortunately the person I bought it from did a crap job at maintaining it apparently. I just...

What did you do to your 3rd gen today? @ psraff I have a 2000 Toyota 4Runner SR5 4 Cylinder Vapor Canister 3.4L and I'm in the State of FL not in CA. Both my sensors are there. Does anyone know where I can perhaps get the cat delete for this model truck? And if I buy the parts myself will...

Yes definitely not enough out here. I'd definitely do it myself if I could. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Just seen your edited response from earlier. I have to research to see where could I get a new Cat Converter from a wrecked car? If so any idea what the (ball park) cost for one might be? What are the names for the two o2 sensors specifically? I would so do this myself if I knew what I was doing...

I couldn't get a good picture earlier today so I went ahead and got under my truck and took the best pics I could possibly take. When I bought it there was some sort of cover beneath the engine. After I had it removed I was told it had a bad oil pan gasket. So that was replaced along with the...

Both o2 sensors are there. Just that the reading it got said the Cat Converter and o2 sensors were bad. The guy who I bought it from said he had the Cat replaced by paying for a welding job which apparently is illegal in the state of FL. So now I need to get the entire dog-gone thing because it...

Hi thank you for the reply. Apparently it's clogged and therefore it's causing the truck to have driving issues. Here are the pictures. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
