Killed Code 52 Not today, but a few weeks ago I was finally able to kill code 52, hopefully for good. Gas mileage is up significantly and hard restarts gone.

90-95 Toyota 4Runner Factory Service Repair Manual That’s an online manual you can follow. I didn’t read your entire thread, but there are probably some “while you’re in there” items that should be replaced.

No first hand experience here but crack the ECU open and have a look. All my crazy Lexus issues SOLVED!! (ECU-leaking capacitor) - ClubLexus - Lexus Forum Discussion

Looks like one of the oil cooler hoses. 15777-65010

Actually on some Audi models, “Remove the engine.” Is step one of getting to the starter. Fortunately not on any that I’ve had. Regardless, more info and test results are needed here.

Huh?? Why would you pull the engine to get to the starter motor? You can pull it from the passenger side wheel opening pretty easily. If you’re getting a “clunk” when you engage the ignition, a contact in the starter may be bad. They can wear unevenly and without them both making contact, the...

What transmission? Tire size? Timing is set to??

Well sure, if it’s not working and gummed up, but my preference is trying to fix things to correct factory functionality. I watch A LOT of the show “Wheeler Dealers”...Very rarely does an item get “scrapped”. They usually find a way to fix it properly. Again, do what you want. People...

Just flip the rail off to the passenger side of the engine. You don’t need to remove the lines. Here’s an online manual you can follow. https://www.ether3al.com/runner90-95fsm/ You may want to do injector cleaning, orings or even have them sent out for service. You can delete the EGR system...

What’s the history on the vehicle? Did you recently buy it and are putting it back together? There are diagnostic ports under the hood behind the fuse box on the front passenger side of the engine. It’s possible the Fp and B+ ports have been jumped together to force the pump to run when the...

And those light lenses from a 2nd gen fit a 1st gen too. I swapped out a set of faded/cleared lenses on mine for a clean red set from a 2nd gen.

New shocks all around today. Took about two hours from start to finish. I didn’t even have to take any wheels off. Rides like a truck now instead of a dump truck. I’m going to pull the PO’s Zuk mod next. Too much lift out back is starting to bother me.

Yes it’s part of the VAFM. Code 24 is an open or short circuit code for the intake air temp sensor. Have you checked the wiring at the harness and the VAFM itself? Do you have a manual and a multimeter? Fair warning- DO NOT remove the two screws on the sides of the harness attachment at the...

Normal. Means you have no stored codes. What do you mean you had to turn off the ignition key and then it would start?

It’s not a MAF sensor in the modern sense. It’s VAFM, Volume Air Flow Meter. Works in a completely different manner and the two aren’t functionally interchangeable, even though the terms often are.
