I am going to try cleaning the MAF as well

HAHAH. So true :(

Yeah, I stated above I replaced the gas camp with an OEM one and then 2 weeks later the CEL light came on. Before that there was no codes or CEL, jut the VSC on/off, VSC Trac, Traction control lights. Now more are there after replacing the gas cap and trying to clear the lights.

I just sold my 4Runner to my brother in law that was running great. Of course, just after he got it the VSC on/off, VSC Trac, Traction Control lights came on. No CEL and no codes. We replaced the gas cap with a new OEM one. Now about 2 weeks later the CEL has come on and it has codes: p0104...

I had my back hatch explode. When getting it replaced, we found the leads to the defroster burned out. See picture. Other than the glass, is the repair to fix the burnt out parts covered?

My preliminary research is also learning towards KYB.

Hello All, While I was replacing the front rotors and pads on my wife's 2006 4runner, I saw that her front struts were leaking oil. We just rolled over 105k miles on the original struts. Truck rides okay, but when you hit any bumps it is a little jarring. I want to replace them, but I dont have...

If I get a transmission cooler, do I was the 3/8 barbed fittings or the 6AN fittings? Barbed right?

Okay I put a bid out on uship. I think I am leaning towards shipping. We are going to ship it to SoCal and house it with my father in law until I know I have a place to store it in Seattle. Quote I got for an enclosed trailer and it was around $1000 to SoCal. So after installing a hitch...

As it is now... maybe a $5000 car. It is really a shell at the moment. I think I am leaning towards the car trailer.

Well, we are actually going to drop it off in Southern California with my inlaws for storage as I have no idea where we are living yet. May not have room to store it ourselves.

Oh good to know! Maybe it is worth the $290 extra for a full trailer....

Thank you so much for your feedback. I trailered a 6x8 trailer loaded down on my older 1999 4Runner from Cali to Texas. All went well there. Please note, the classic car will be towed on a car dolly from uHaul most likely. Do I need an electronic brake controller for a car dolly ?

I have shipped quite a few cars now- mostly classics. The issue is this car is not in the type of shape to want to ship it with someone else. I am trying hard to get it put together as best I can for travel, but my wife's job transfer is happening really quick. For example, I have no glass in...

Hey All, I have a V6 4Runner with no two hitch. I am moving from Texas to Seattle and will be pulling my non running 1964 Falcon. The Falcon will maybe be around 3000 lbs after I load it was some extra parts. Besides normal maintenance and checking brakes on the 4Runner, I plan to do the...
