    Roof rack rail screw size

    Hey, I'm bumping this old thread and hoping someone can help me out. I installed my new roof top tent yesterday, and in the process, I pulled out the screws holding the rail to the top of the 4Runner. Somehow I dropped one, and I can't find it (my driveway is gravel). Does anyone have or know...

    Cylinder 6 misfire

    The wires on it aren't that old. Maybe 3 years? And I tested the #6 wire by pulling the wire off of the spark plug and holding the tip near the engine block. It arc'd nicely, so as far as I knew the wire was good...

    Cylinder 6 misfire

    Maybe it's just early in the week, but I'm a little disappointed that I haven't received many replies (but thanks to you guys who did). So today I drove it to work, and she was running worse than ever. I spent a little more time on it in the O'Reilly Auto parts parking lot. When I got there...

    Cylinder 6 misfire

    New coil pack on #3. No change. However, now the scanner is picking up misfire on #3 & #6, and mass air flow something... Ready to pull my hair out. This has to be something simple. WTF...

    Cylinder 6 misfire

    Someone help me figure this out. Truck has been running great until yesterday morning. Developed a sudden misfire. Auto parts place scanned it and came back with cylinder #6 misfire. While I was in the parking lot, I swapped coils from cylinders 1 & 3, reset ECU, and scanned again. Still...

    What Did You Do To Your 3rd Gen Today?

    I give sportbike brake pads a good scrubbing with some sandpaper whenever I get new rotors. Removes any glazing on the pad surface. I would imagine shoes in the drums would be pretty similar...?

    What Did You Do To Your 3rd Gen Today?

    Spent most of the day working on mine and a buddy's trucks. Did his first. Trans cooler, o2 sensors - well, attempted to. After pulling the old ones out, we realized that they sent the wrong parts. Had to put the original ones back in - and steering rack bushings. When we finished his...

    MPG on your 3rd Gen?

    '00 Limited / OME/LC 8 Wraps / 285/75 Duratrac's. I don't track my mpg's, but according to the trucks' odometer, from full to empty covers right at 200 miles. The mileage is obviously wrong due to the taller tires... In other words, my mpg's SUCK

    4runner is probably totaled - dashcam video included

    If they had STAYED on the gas, they would have either completed the drift, or spun out. Steering correction + letting OFF of the gas is what led to that collision. Most people panic and let go of the gas/stomp the brake. If she would have stayed in the throttle, that accident *may* have been...

    North Alabama/South Tennessee 4Runner Meet

    Hey man, I'm in Greenville, SC. If you did go, and were willing to go through Atlanta (which looks like it will add about 20 min to your trip time), I'll make the trip, too. Google maps puts me going through Atlanta on the way up. I haven't met anyone from the forums yet, either. Wouldn't...
