Took the leap of faith in SW Idaho!

Just bought me a 94 4Runner 3.0 and so far..I am pretty impressed! I sold my 1967 Ford Bronco a few years ago, regretted it (like many others before me) and don't have the money to buy another one. So, I did the next, best thing. What I am not impressed with is the lack of power! What a slug!! I have been involved in Ford Drag racing for many years and hopefully, I can find a little more power somewhere!! I have been lurking on this forum for a few days and appreciate all the tips and knowledge. Hopefully, I can contribute something! BTW, I don't think I have ever seen a motor with so many vacuum lines!!! Hope I didn't take too big of a leap!!!

It's a 1994,3.0 with 137K. Hope I can figure out this "photo thing"! Will post more photos if all goes right! BTW, I may owe everyone an apology when I said "second best". I am a Ford nut although my daily driver is a Scion XB! Miss my 67 Bronco but I have to admit....This 4Runner is very comfortable and can climb!! We may bond yet!! Rod

All respect to Broncos (I love them), but you've got the better offroader in your driveway now. You've already noticed the big drawback, and it's a big one :D. There's not much power to be coaxed from that motor, and what there is isn't cheap. Start thinking motor swap.
 
Nice runner!!! There are a few threads on here with people that have done the SBF swap i believe. Since your a ford guy :vader: im going with a chevy 4.3 v6 lol
 
Thought I would post one more picture and wait until I do some improvements to post more. Beautiful place to vist and explore. As soon as I am through with lunch, I am going to tackle that big rock in the background!!! Yeah, right! Really enjoying this 4Runner.
