1st & 2nd gen 4-runner tech (factory service manual and common fixes)

i hope you find it , i need them too

Hi, everyone. Does anyone know where I can purchase weatherstripping for the side sliding windows for the firstgen 4Runner?

I tried everywhere I can think of and its been discontinued. I'm restoring my 89 DLX and got all new weatherstripping for the front door windows, runs and weatherstripping for the doors.

Thanks so much!
 
1st Gen Help

Hey everyone!

I am the recent new owner of a 1989 3VZE.

Been having a couple minor issues I am trying to work through on my own and wanted to see if y'all had any advice.

Cruising around town the car runs like new. At highway speed however, it will sort of lurch or hickup with the throttle wide open cruising. At times, this will trip the check engine light. I have read the codes manually and I am getting 2:

25 Mixture control -continuously lean Wiring, injector, H02S, ECTNAF sensor, intake/fue/lignition system, ECM
26 Mixture control -continuously rich Wiring, injector, fuel system, cold start injector, H02S, VAF sensor, ECM

Now, for about two weeks the light has not come back on but still have the same issues driving, except recently every so often it will stall out while idling and at times while I am driving on the highway (freaks me out).

Any suggestions of where I can start? Originally thought O2 sensor or TPS.

I have a 1988 4runner and it pops out of first gear, any idea how to fix this, I bought a new shift lever bushing but have not installed it yet, I plan on doing it this weekend, if that does not solve the problem what are the steps I should take to fixing it?
 
Hi all, I am new here. I was not sure where to ask this but;
I need to put a new engine in my 87 4runner. I have been looking around and I have found a Turbo 22re, I would like to put it in, but I wasnt sure what else I would have to replace in order to do this. The 4runner is all primarily stock. Has had some work done, but very little changes.

Thanks for any help and or adviuce
 
Replacing engine, need advice

I am new here and I am needing some advice.
I have an 87 4runner, I have had it for a while, and have been nursing engines, and am ready to just get a new one. I want to put in a turbo, but I am not sure how much other work I will have to do to make this happen. It is pretty much a stock 22re.

Any suggestions?
 
Hey guys, I just bought a 92 4runner with a slow rear window. Does not like to go up or down without help. I know that this is a pretty common problem and was wondering if you guys know how to replace the rear window motors or gears. Pics and/or videos appreciated!

Does anyone have a link to the later ('87) 1st gen wiring manual? I looked through this and a couple of other threads and unless I missed it, it's not out there.
 
Need help!!!!'

Hey guys, i'm new here I don't even know if I should be posting this in this thread but if anyone has any ideas i'd greatly appreciate it!

So I recently purchased a 91 4runner and the brakes worked fine. But during the 3ish weeks it was parked the rear brakes stopped working. The front brakes work great but the back shoes put little to no pressure on the drums. I've put new shoes in and new wheel cylinders plus adjustable the brake pedal and bleed the brakes and it helped but they're still not working 100%. The drums seem fine, next i might try replacing the master cylinder. I don't think it's anything to do with the brake booster as none of the symptoms match (pedal went soft not hard, and the rpms don't change when applying brakes) plus the front ones still work perfect. Also there's no leaks anywhere, apart from the master cylinder i've pretty much done everything it could be, just wondering if anyone has any other ideas? Thanks guys!

I'm new here to 4Runners and the forum but I seem to recall reading about the sensor on the rear axle needing to read level or therear brakes don't apply when they should. Again, I'm new sooo.

It won't shift into overdrive until it knows the trans temp has come up. If it's taking longer than it should, you could have an issue with the trans temp sender.
 
Part between Master cylinder and slave cylinder?

Hi guys,

I'm hoping you can assist me identify the name of this part which I need to replace. I have been unable to obtain the spare part as no one can tell me what its called!

Its part of the hydraulic clutch system. The fluid from the master cylinder through this part then to the slave cylinder. It sits on the right side of the engine bay. Virtually the same spot as the master cylinder but on the right side of the engine bay (as opposed to the left side where the master cylinder sits)

Vehicle - 1990 Toyota 4Runner
Engine - 2.8L Diesel

Thanks guys. Appreciate your help.

Mike.

My question is what is the connector next to the relay labeled "B"? To the left and up at little. Looks like a 3pin.... 94 v6 4runner. Its located on the interior fuse/junction box. Sorry if this is the wrong place to post... All the diagrams dont have it labeled..

1990 22RE Rad missing fins

Hey guys i just bought this 1990 22re runner with 216k miles.
I'm the 3rd owner, the thing was super clean and seems to run well enough for me to barely pop the hood.

the other day i finally had some time to poke around under the hood and noticed the overflow reservoir for the rad was full to the brim with the car cool.
I popped the rad cap and realized the PO is running straight water?
then i checked out the rad which i hadn't done previously and noticed a TON of the fins are missing. like they disintegrated or something?

Also a translucent slime on the hose in the res.

Here are some photos of what I'm talking about.

Going to assume i need a new rad here... how pressing is this problem? and why would PO be running straight water? he seemed to be very mechanically inclined.

best place to get a new radiator for these 2nd gen 22re runners???

much love.
