I know this is old, but resources on the old 3.0 limited. Im attempting to build a boosted 3.0. pushing about 8psi just for the hell of it. Any tips? Ive bigger injectors, headers, head studs. Better afm. Ported intake, cleaned heads. Im working on wrapping lines and such for heat protection.
Building a 3.0 to handle some boost. My main question, i understand removing the pair and egr solenoids but why the fpu? No check engine light or lean/rich problems? Sorry for the attack of questions 😂, trying to reduce the amount of places that accidentally turn into weapons when boost is applied.
I've unooked them and hooked them up a few times cuz I had an issues with the hot start but it hasn't made any difference. It runs just fine but I do have a switch to prime the pump on hot days or long drives. But again, hooking them solenoids up didn't help any.
Alright, a lady here. I need some help with my 94 4runner. We just had to replace the wiring harness. The new/used wiring harness was in great condition all plug ends looked great. Now my starter isn't responding. I'm not sure if i have a bad ground or what. We get clicking from the purple relay and a click sound from the computer. The starter is new, and previously worked. I'm stuck as to what to try next. The battery is also good. The starter is getting power it was tested with a meter. Can you tell me where the ground points are. Or link me to a diagram.
I am not sure. I haven't had this issue so I'm not familiar with how to even troubleshoot this. Have you tried a Facebook toyota group? They can be super helpful. Good luck. ❤
Awesome video, my brotha! Your dedication to the 3vze engine has motivated me to completely rebuild my fathers truck from the ground up. Although the body will get to the level of how your truck looks, the engine, suspension, transmission, differential, and the brakes are all fully rebuilt. If you get a chance, I've made a video here on RU-vid regarding my journey. Again, thank you for the motivation. Keep those videos rollin'!
Super clean, factory bumper looks better for sure. Sucks mine looked that good 11 years ago. Extra cab an all except its a 93 base model with factory sr5 suspension package 3.0l 4x4. Keep an eye on the distributor the pickup likes to go bad as well as the igniters having issues usually a hit or miss with new AM anyways good trucks and engines minus the manifold design on driver side.
Since you put this vid out, have you been able to resolve your hot/cold start issues, the other question the knock sensor that you changed position have you had any problems running the motor, I am looking at trying something similar, you have given me some great trips and ideas now with regards to air intake system.
Knock sensor has worked great. On really hot days it will take a few cracks so I just use a toggle switch to prime to fuel pump about 5 seconds and it starts right up.
Dude, this looks soooo clean! Congrats! Can I just ask you two things quick? Do you have any issues with the engine running after the EGR delete, overheating? What are the blue coolant hoses - are they specific for the model or cut and bend diy?
@@Leon1982db Wasn't implying any ill-intent :D Just how most spiders are instictually. Except for jumping-spiders, who inately look curious about everything around them!
From GPT-4: The spider in the image appears to be a type of fishing spider, likely from the genus Dolomedes. These spiders are typically found near water and are known for their ability to "walk" on the water surface and even dive beneath it to catch small fish or aquatic insects.
Like the shaved parts on the intake. Getting ready to delete my egr. All my issues are coming from the old cracked lines so there headed to the trash can
I'm the original owner of a 95 4 runner. Working on kinks. Just a warning dude tape the exhaust manifold all the way around before you lose your head gasket to over heating. It will save you a headache. Guess I'm not the only one that like his 3.0 VZE engine. Looks good
So this wasn't my issue, unfortunately. Ive since then changed the fuel and air filter and run 93 octane along with sime seafoam. The car still has it's multiple misfires, but I've learned I can drive the car so long as I'm not pressing the gas pedal past 3/4 down.
It looks like it's idling a little fast on that tac. can you explain that please. Thanks Don. It's been a month since I asked about the fast idle, do you even still own it.
