    Poor Mileage or it is just my imagination?

    fishrod, haha well, in 1988 they didn't have indicator lights. I will try your milk container idea. There's only one way to find out, right?

    Poor Mileage or it is just my imagination?

    So related question, I have an '88 V6 and my manual says my tank is about 17 gallons (65 Liters) BUT the needle on my truck is on the bottom part of Empty at 15 gallons (55 Liters). With this difference, I can drive another 60-90 Km or 36-54 miles. I haven't been "out of gas" yet. Has...

    94Beast4Runner: I totally lazy and didn't care to take the emblems off. It was early in the morning haha. In light, if you look really closely, you can tell. But so far no one has noticed :D I didn't blast it. There was minimal rust in the front end probably due to past oil leaks which have...

    Checked it out, the frame is pretty good. Most likely due to our dry climate. Had some problems with bushwacker so I'm going to make my own fenders :S we'll see how that goes. I triple coated the frame with a asphalt spray <a...
