Yes, that's the purge valve, I previously confirmed it is working properly. Thanks for the thought.

Hello, I'm stuck reiterating for attention. All I'm looking for is someone who has a 4th Gen gas tank not installed in a vehicle to check if there is a float valve in the pictured vent above. Thanks.

I did it on my 05 sr5. I ended up having to run new wires. There are a few extra wires where the heated seat controls would be on a limited, but I couldn't make sense of them. I ended up just getting 5th gen seats with 5th gen controls and doing all the wiring myself.

There are two large bolts that hold the power steering rack to the frame, at least one of them has a small slot and the other could be rusted out or something. That would account for the change in steering angle. As others have said, though, with the fluid going bad and the leaks, you probably...

What condition are the tires in? That can really affect that kind of thing. Have you put a string on the wheels to get an idea of where your toe is? Have you checked the rack and pinion bolts? I supposed it could be sliding back and forth, there is a small slot of the holes.

Hello everyone, I'm trying to track down an evap issue on my 05 4runner with the 4.7. It's currently giving like 15 evap codes, but I smoke tested it and found out the vent valve was stuck open. No big deal, I dropped the $350 on a new charcoal cannister with the vent and pump all included. It...

Thanks for the info. I'll look into that. I'm pretty sure it p0445. But I would have to double check.

I have a $800 Autel, which is how I diagnosed it initially. The gas cap is brand new. My main question is if there is a vent somewhere else that is blocked.

I bought my 4runner off auction wrecked. Soon after I got it going, the charcoal canister vent valve started leaking and threw a check engine code. I diagnosed it and ordered an OEM charcoal canister. Now about 7 months later, it's doing exactly the same thing. I'm thinking I heard that a bad...

That does not sounds like fun at all. I had trouble getting mine back together and I wondered why they made it so complicated to manually override.

It still clicks, if you get the one the OP suggests it's adjustable to whatever you want.

I think I quoted the wrong post, my answer to your first question is in this forum. I have a three car garage with no lift, I think it took me 3 weeks of nights and Saturdays to get it done. It's hard to say for sure there were a lot of other projects mixed in to the larger project and I rust...

Hey everyone! Sorry, life has been busy. I'm hoping to do a build writeup once I'm verified to go over everything I did to my 05 (it's still a work in progress). But yes, the 4th and 5th gen frames are extremely close (at least the two I had). The main differences that I could see are; Front...

I did it on my 05 myself. I used a 2016 frame, it's basically exactly the same.

I had a trailblazer that would activate ABS at every stop, the problem ended up being rust forming under the wheel speed sensor and pushing it out ever so slightly. I don't think I even replaced the sensors, I just removed them, cleaned and reinstalled. I know it's not the same vehicle, but the...
