    Engine makes a "loping" sound at idle

    Curious if someone else has had a similar issue like this. It's a coworkers 4runner and she has been having some problems over the last couple of days. At idle it's making this loping sound as heard in the video. I was thinking harmonic balance or like a CAS or something. But I'm not really a...

    Cylinder misfire CEL and spark plug ?'s

    I had a misfire in cyl 6 when I bought my runner. We trouble shot a few different things. Replaced plugs and wires, and had no luck. The stealership insisted it was the valve seals. Obviously I wasn't going to give them the money to replace those. Took the injectors out and had them cleaned and...

    Tank_7's Build

    Thanks man! Its my buddies s14, in the progress of swapping the s14 SR into it and converting auto to manual. He's the brains behind it I just add some friendly advice here and there. Ha. S14 SR with a fresh head and basic bolt ons for the moment. Typical suspension work. Unfortunately not...

    Tank_7's Build

    Okay so it has taken me a little bit to update because I was too busy enjoying the awesome weather this weekend. But since it's back down into the 20's today I suppose I'll get back to the grind on here. I got the VLEDs 2000LM headlights in last Friday. So I'll give a little review on them...

    ADH8796 4runner Build

    Noo! Dang Photobucket. I had this thread saved so I could use it as reference for my internal snorkel but now you're out of bandwidth! Any way you could get me some pictures of that process?

    Sorry but to be fair your roommate is somewhat right. The Miata is one of the most glorified circuit racers of all time. It is far from a "piece of shit". Of course depending on how he has modified / restored it will verify this! To keep on topic! :fencing: Don't mind my friend taking a...

    Little update. The other night I decided to semi debadge the lift-gate / sides where the limited badges were. Supplies used. Heat gun. Plastic scraper thing. And some alcohol wipes. During Finished. Still debating on what to do with the toyota logo and the text badges. I like the text...

    Raingler ceiling net from an Xterra

    That's pretty nifty! I like 4x4runner's idea of using for blankets and pillows. But I would think for $100 you could make something similar for less. I mean if you had access to a sewing machine it wouldn't be hard at all. Couple carabiner's and some mounting points and boom, made.

    Rough country lift thoughts?

    I bought my runner with that kit. I ditched the front spacers as of last week to go with Bilstein c/o's. But I still have the rear installed. Over all RC really isn't too horrible of a company. They make some decent jeep lifts. But as for this kit, the spacers up front suck dog balls, because...

    Yeah Brian I could definitely see that. I've trimmed A LOT off these flares. So far it seems that I've eliminated rubbing on the plastic flare and I removed the drivers side fender liner and trimmed a lot off the passenger side. I haven't ever had it touch the actual metal of the fender. Even...

    Tank_7's Build

    Decided to make one of these things. I'll try and keep it short and sweet (yeah right) so if anyone has any questions about something I didn't cover feel free to PM me or reply in the thread. This is my first 4runner but not my first Toyota. Back in high school I had a 99 Tacoma with the TRD...

    Can't decide if mine is really worth of a build thread yet. So I'll just keep leaving things here.
