I definitely have a timing issue that I am chasing after it just shut off and wouldn't restart. I am currently in the tear down stage to look at parts and stuff. Once I verify and/or set timing, I am going to do the compression test.

Finally getting around to tearing into my son's 4runner. I need to check and/or set timing and perform a compression test before ripping into the timing chains. Praying that the motor isn't hurt. I will know more as I tear more into it, unfortunately the rain and lifters stopped my morning...

My son's 4runner- 2007 Sport 4.0 shut off running up the highway. It just surged and shut down amd wouldn't restart. Since we couldn't see a crank signal, we replaced the crank sensor. Now the engine will start but struggles to start and won't stay running. It is obvious a timing issue. I am...

2007 Toyota 4runner 4.0 Running down the highway and the engine surged to 4500 and all the dash lights came on and truck shut off. It would restart. Acted sort of like it had a bad battery. Long story short, we got towed to a local repair ship that said he wasnt reading crank signal and stated...

Got a 2007 4runner Sport with Toytec 3" lift and Bulstein 5100s. Currently have stock wheels and tires. Tires are due for replacing. What is the largest tire I can run on the stock wheels. Would like to go with 285/70/17 but worried they won't work on the stock 17" wheels. Can't afford to...

Bought an 05 4runner V8 Limiteds for my son in April 2019 with 168k miles for $3000. I put about $1500 into it and alot of elbow grease cleaning it- it sat under a tree for 2 years and had a water leak from a clogged a/c drain tube. Lots of cleaning and buffing. Unfortunately my son wrecked it...

I have repaired 2 4runners with hatch issues and both were the latch. One of them completely quit and the other was an intermitten problem. Both of them had rust and corrosion on the latch which leads me to believe they are prone to water getting back there. Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk

I agree with its probably the actuator. I make sure to place my 4runner into 4wd high and low at least once a month to ensure this doesn't happen to his. Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk

Can't believe I missed this. I better start paying more attention as my son is needing tires for his 4runner. I am just glad theu are cheaper to buy for his than my Jeep with 35's Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk

I agree with this but not due to pressure, more so because of the lack of knowledge of how the system was run. Did theu actually use the correct fluid, didn't mix up fluids, and how was it driven? You can overheat a power steering system and burn the fluid too- rare but can happen. Also, the...

I am having issues with my hatch and have no clue. It won't work from the switch on the outside which is new. And the window intermittently works with the key but works fine from dash button. I can use my Autel Scanner and activate the latch to open it so I think my ECU is fine but not sure. Any...
