Intresting, i am just surprised you got a stihl with your dad selling husky and all, we got a few Stihl things, some of the Stihl stuff is better and some of the Husky stuff is better, Damn on the zero turn, fortunately i dont have enough grass to justify a mower like that.
 
ha we really dont either haha cause they are demos they come and go.... w got about 1.8 acres of grass so its a good bit. buut we used to have a new simplicity tractor designed by bmw with push to start, xeon headlights and a waterproof digital dash.... it was sweet too!!
 
Just rolled in after stopping the coolant leak by cutting off the rear heater lines (permanent fix soonish), I fixed the power steering leak with a rubber hose and 2 zipties (knock on wood), and my NGK TE-66 Spark plug wires came in so now i can stop this damn hesitation-under-load i have and maybe see a performance increase from the new plugs $42 total between the NGK BKREKB-11 ($15) plugs and the TE-66 wires ($27). This if all is right i will now have a now leaking, almost fully functioning toyota (minus the rear heater). I am pretty excited.

good luck bud:thumb3:
 
Sparkplugs and wires took longer than expected. I ripped the old wires off and threw them out. So when i did the plugs and was ready to put wires back on, i had no idea the order, but thanks to thegreenmonster we talked and figured out the setup (Pic attached), And boy is this thing quick now, i had a hesitation under load before doing the plugs due to trying to change only the plugs 4 months ago and not having the wires and the current wires breaking, so i was running on an occasional misfire, but now it is really nice and has really good acceleration.

From what i have gathered (dont hold me to it) the cylinder numbers are:
(dashboard)
5 6
3 4
1 2
(Radiator)

New Struts time!

Bring on the rear sag. FoneRunner sent me up his almost new KYB struts that he put on right before he lifted it. Here is a teaser pic, his is a 98 and they had slightly taller coils so i am expecting a little lift in the front, so the back might look saggy but i hope it doesnt change, but the benefit from KYB's far surpasses any visual changes.

Thanks LINY4Runner and FoneRunner

I got randomly in the mail today a set of 01 Tailights from FoneRunner and LINY4Runner, i really do appriciate it, thanks guys.

I did install them right when the Fed-ex guy handed them to me, so here are the pics.

Also last night i put Sway bar links from a donor 4runner on mine because my links were busted, and holy shit, i never realized how shitty mine rode till these were install, now i don't get that "OH SHIT!" feeling when i road a bend.

KYB's and Sway Bar links in.

Heres the pics from the KYB Struts off of FoneRunners' 4runner, and swaybar links that were taken from a random 4runner at the scrapyard. Both installed and made a huge difference, Crappy pics cause its nightime.
