    95 3vez miss fire fixed.

    Took a lil time today to look at what was causing the miss fire on my 95 3vez 2wd 95 runner. Was having a miss fire issue. Started by putting a cap wires and plugs on it a few weeks back but didn't put a ignition rotor on because it looked good. Well the issue kept getting worse and I figured it...

    3vze Engine Sound Help!

    That did not sound good at all. Sounds like timing but I heard what sounded like valves hitting a piston when you first started it up or maybe something inside a cylinder. I wouldn't run it any more until I rechecked the timing on the belt plus I would co a compression check also.

    V-6 overheated, now running rough

    A grand to fix it right or 35 to fix it on the cheap. If its been hot enough to get rid of a head gasket then it needs a complete over haul. Putting new head gaskets on a motor that's been hot enough to blow a gasket will for certain use oil. Been a mechanic for 30 years and I know what happens...

    Coolant leak behind engine

    By Pass hose. Look at the center of the intake next to fire wall. Look down and you will see a U shaped hose. Just bought on from Toyota this morning for my 95 2 wd runner. Its going to be a tough job to do as im not taking off the intake top.

    One bad runner I want

    195 to the ground. Not shabby for a 4 cly. Even though its turbo charged. I kind like the rear kit but the front kits is a must for any type of lift or larger tires. LC does good things with the yotas.

    Alternator belt replacement 95 3vez

    Thank you Vegas4Runner. Just went and washed the engine compartment. I dislike working on anything dirty. I was wondering about the adjustment procedure and you answered that for myself. Im using Dayco brand belts because I have always had great success with them.
