If I recall correctly they are 15in wheels. The Valiant came standard with 14in wheels in 1967 but the originals were swapped out with the 15in Duster wheels by a previous owner.
The exhaust sound on 6 cylinder engines are notorious for resonance noise which is incredibly irritating. So always consider adding a resonator...either new or from the junk yard...it removes the negative resonance noise vibe.
I do not have a link for the spoiler but you should be able to find a some similar in plastic or fiberglass. FCP Euro might be worth checking out as they may have something.
Upon a bit of research it appears that the 01 and 02 4runners are a bit different. I found a couple of articles that you may find useful. www.toyota-4runner.org/3rd-gen-t4rs/57300-throttle-position-sensor-installation-adjustment-2.html www.toyota-4runner.org/3rd-gen-t4rs/220263-write-up-01-02-t4r-throttle-position-sensor-info-2.html
@@rustbucketproductions thanks. Found one with the 4 pin connector earlier on the website mentioned in the article. Should be here hopefully early this coming week. Definitely some sites say the 3 pin connector fits my vehicle and it doesn't.
From the limited research I have done, the makeup of the "hybrid" engine oil is different than synthetic oil but not by much. Hybrid oil should be fine to run but I would follow the manufactures specifications on the next oil change.
The rear spoilers upper and lower are AC Schnitzer. Beautiful car man. I have a 97 540i with Oxford Green over Tan interior with the AC Schnitzer decklid spoiler. Would love to find the roof spoiler! I really love the Oxford Green over black. I might have to find some new interior seating for my ride!
Thank you for the comment! Oxford Green is by far my favorite color out of the available color options for the E39! If you swap out the seats, just make sure they aren't twisted haha.
Does it also work going down hill ? will the vehicle stay longer in a lower gear going down hill. Like staying in 3rd gear when driving a stick shift ?
No the torque wrench is not necessary but you don't want to overtighten as it may deform the washers on the spark plug or even crack the ceramic. Likewise if it is too loose the plug could start to back out.
The issue with some of these videos is that anyone who's new to replacing the TPS won't know that when you pull the old or bad TPS off, the pins on the throttle body are under pressure, and they'll spin about an 1/8" maybe a little more. Then when you put your new TPS on, the throttle receives to much fuel and at start up the engine will race. I learned this the hard way. In the future, please add all the important details like that. Great job on the camera placement.
Thanks for the tip. I was unaware of the spin that you were referring too, but I think that makes sense as I had to rotate the TPS to get it to line up upon install.
The best part of doing your own oil changes is you're in control of the process. You know what oil is being poured into the engine. You know that the old oil completely got drained. And as far as the air filter goes, it's a good idea to check it every oil change because you never know when a rodent may have gotten in and chewed thru the fiber.
Don’t be afraid of the miles man. Especially highway. They say 10 city miles = 1 highway mile. Just change your tranny fluid every 60K and oil obviously I drive an 03 Toyota w 320,000 miles…anyway I put 3500 miles on mine every month. Taken it on 16 rd trips. Just take care of them and they’ll last 500K easy Oh…I had a buddy that had your exact truck. Head gasket blew at 428,000. Stay on top of your radiator, maybe replace it, and you won’t have the head gasket issue. Good luck!
I have tried to stay up to date with all maintenance, though I am sure there are a few things I have missed here and there. The radiator was replaced around 75k miles ago so I am not too worried it will fail but am well aware of the potential pink milkshake issue that can arise.
Thank you for the details video. Gives me some confidence to do it this weeknd! Good to know that the injectors come with O-rings so i dont have to order them!
Hello friend, did you change the injectors due to some particular error? My Prado 5VZ has excessive consumption and they recommended that I put new injectors, I can't find any other way to test them, but the fuel tank doesn't give me more than 250km.
