Hi everyone - Just a quick question: I am going to be replacing my antenna mast on my 2001 T4R when it arrives from Amazon - and I need to know where is the retaining nut/screw that holds the mast in place? Sorry, but, just not sure what I am looking for here, or where its located. Any help...

Here are a couple of shots of my 01 Runner:

understood - you weren't actually 100 sure.....but, I think you are right...read a couple of other threads today, and I am thinking now that the problem may be that I am over-tightening the cap. The Stant cap is a one-click design. I've been doing 5-7 clicks....since I loosened it up...

Really need some clarity on this for my 2001 2wd v6 T4R: Should the gas cap for my vehicle be of the vacuum design, or the vented design? I see the one I bought at Advance (not autozone) was the Stant/vacuum only design, and the one they sell at Autozone is the CST cap, which is of the vented...

O2 downstream sensor was replaced in January...still getting the code. So...why would one parts store sell a vacuum only cap, and the other sell a vented cap, no vacuum design according to the specs? This is a bit confusing...anyone else running the Stant vacuum only design (part #10834) on...

So, I guess my question at the moment is: Should the gas cap be of the vacuum design, or the vented design? I see the one I bought at Advance (not autozone) was the Stant/vacuum only design, and the one they sell at Autozone is the CST cap, which is of the vented design, not vacuum. Which...

Thanks.... I am not getting the codes for the evap system...my code is P0420, catalytic converter below threshold error. And, as far as the cap goes, I went out just now and took off the gas cap, (no woosh), and then put it back on with exactly 3 clicks...then turned it off again...this time...

Back when I first bought my T4R (2001 - 2wd 6 cyl) I got the P0420 code, and found the gas cap was not tightening properly. I replaced it with a gas cap from Autozone. The one they had listed in the computer did not fit at all, the guy behind the counter said they had to go up a year to the...

Update: Took the truck to my service guy this morning, he test drove it and was able to replicate the problem. Definetly the transmission...he said we could try a trans flush, it might work, it might not...otherwise, replace the transmission. Being that this is a 2001 with 240k on the...

yep - pretty much figured this would be the case. Thanks

Bumping again....nobody has any idea on this? I will update one thing: The dimmed D indicator on the dash was dimmed because I had the lights on. Other than that - the issue occurred on the way home, multiple times, but this time during acceleration (slow -moderate accel) with no foot on...

nobody? anybody?

Bump...hoping someone can comment on this this morning.....seriously dreading making the run home (30 miles) in stop and go this afternoon with this issue....Anyone?

I was on my way to work this morning, in usual stop and go traffic in Atlanta...doing 5-10 mph. All of a sudden, I experienced a very hard downshift from either 3rd to 2nd or 2nd to 1st...not sure which...strong enough to feel like I hit a pothole. Truck is a 2001 t4r 2wd automatic v6. I...

Ok then...that clarifies it for me pretty good....thanks TheDurk!!
