    Bogging/gasoline smell in cab

    Can you elaborate? What are fuel trims, both STFT and LTFT? and could you get this information? if you smell fuel its either due to a leaking fuel system, or your rig is running pig rich for some reason.

    Front differential noise

    in the front diff; if you have an A.D.D diff, the oil can only circulate if you are in 4WD, which is why Toyota recommends that you use 4WD once a month. If the oil can't get to the carrier bearings regularly, or the axle bearings, they will corrode and fail.

    3rd gen gas gauge issue

    there is a small harness in the tank that could be the problem, you could do a resistance test of the sending unit before and after the harness to verify, but at the age and mileage I would consider if the gauge itself is the problem, maybe an Ebay, or junkyard part is the solution

    Could I have a bad or failing evap canister?

    yes, and it's not terribly complicated. So you will need a vacuum gauge, a section of hose and a "T". You "T" the hose between the purge valve and the canister( if you have the little green "T" from the factory you don't need to do this, just remove the valve from that, it's left threaded) and...

    Help me identify this vacuum(?) tubing...

    If we are looking that first pic for an answer, those are steel lines going to the tank, the nylon sheathing is cracking some. Those would be a real PITA to replace, and silicone wouldn't suffice. I don't know what the rest of your rig looks like but judging by the condition of that section I...

    Transmission Strainer for A340F?

    no pan gasket available from dealer, uses Trans FIPG. The strainer is replaceable, I did mine at 270k miles, was the original, was intact and not clogged, I replaced it anyway because it wasn't expensive. If your pan is leaking you should re-seal it, replace the strainer if you like, if your pan...
