    5VZ cylinder head hex plugs

    Does anyone have know what these hex plugs are for and what their torque spec is? I bought a junkyard 5VZ just to take apart and mess with. I’m not dead set on removing these but since they likely cap an oil or coolant passage I’d like to take them out and clean what’s inside. I just don’t know...

    Dropzone's 1994 4Runner Expedition/Overland Build

    I know it’s been a while since you posted about the spare tire swingout but how is it holding up? My boss and I are going over how we’ll mount it and he’s skeptical about bolting straight to the body with the bracket behind it. I personally don’t have any qualms about it since I believe they...

    Is this engine worth putting time/effort/money into - or should I run from it?

    I agree, not worth it IMO. If you have the $$$ get a 3.4l. I paid $1800 for a rebuilt 3VZ because I’m new to this and didn’t want the headache of swapping things when I already had no clue what I was looking at. Now I wish I had just bought a JDM 3.4l

    Digging the rig man! Your obsession for lights escapes me lol. I’m curious how well your bed liner is holding up, I have my eye on the monstaliner kit at the moment.

    I’ve been dealing with the same issue. No luck finding new or aftermarket harnesses. These threads should help if you want to pull one from a junkyard and repair it OEM type connector terminals Locating Part Numbers & Parts: A Guide Good luck let us know if you find anything

    Rattling sound from rear of engine

    Hey guys I have a 95 with a newly rebuilt 3.slo and this past weekend I replaced the valve cover gaskets. I overlooked the FIPG that is called for in the manual when I installed the valve covers the first time and had to redo it due to a leak. Here’s where my stupidity makes the story...

    Man, I’ve been reading through your whole thread for the past couple of days and got bummed when I got to the end. Thanks for all the knowledge and insight. Just got my 95 back from the shop after a slightly botched diy engine install job. Can’t wait to start knocking stuff off the list

    Yet another 1 ton build!

    A lot of this went way over my head but I’ll be following all the same

    Clutch pedal immediately loses pressure

    Update Quick update: replaced both cylinders with Aisin, bled the clutch and... no luck. Thinking it might be a crack in the line somewhere. I’m considering getting one of those stainless steel braided lines from Summit Racing if you guys think that would fix the issue.

    red's 95 3.SLOW

    Idle oil pressure I enjoyed reading through your thread and just took this picture on my lunch break. It’s a rebuilt engine that I just finished dropping in a couple months ago, but it hasn’t been driven yet (clutch issues) but this is the pressure I got while it was cold and at idle. I don’t...

    Clutch pedal immediately loses pressure

    I used off brand for both from Rockauto. I replaced the master again with a Duralast from autozone but that didn’t fix the issue. I’ll order some Aisins and update you when I get them installed. And yes I did bench bleed the master but I’ll make sure to look up a video about it again and make...

    Clutch pedal immediately loses pressure

    Thanks for the reply 4Reak Show. I’ll probably take your advice with the OEM cylinders just for peace of mind. Just a bummer since I’ve already gone through 2 masters thinking they were the culprit. The clutch worked perfectly before I messed with it. On a buddy’s advice I replaced the master...

    Clutch pedal immediately loses pressure

    After much searching around I haven’t been able to find a thread about this and it’s been driving me nuts. A couple months ago I replaced the engine in my 95 Runner with a rebuilt, and ever since I cannot for the life of me get the clutch pedal to build and keep pressure. I was able to shift...
