Matt would be an expert on what it feels like when something is running outta gas lol

@michellescott619 Год назад

Yes he does! 😆

@dbo11tango Год назад

Came here just for that!😂

@MischiefMakerTV Год назад

That was a great episode! Can’t wait to see what the rest of your journey looks like 😊🤘🏻

Inspiring story. I admire your sense of adventure. You did more in three days than most people do in a whole year. Alex, Matt, and Tom Tom are some good dudes too. Your positive attitude and perseverance made for some great stories that you will be telling your grandkids one day. You won't ever forget the winter of '23. I love the older Toyota trucks too! Safe travels

@rowlinstoned3715 Год назад

Matt just seems like such a good dude. And Holly is one of my new favorites too! Nobody has the drone shots like u tho... i loved the river shots u got. KILLER!

@SubePelayo928 Год назад

On the Weber 32/36 or 38/38’s. Make sure the floats are set correctly. Also, if it’s cutting out at a higher RPM. The choke might not be fully open. Hope it gets squared away! Good luck!

@thelonewrangler1008 Год назад

There's nothing better than that feeling when you finally get annoying gremlin repaired on your rig. I'm currently dealing with some electrical issues on my TJ and I know it's something really simple but I just need to find it

@getoutwithrockandsherri Год назад

What a great find! Thanks for sharing!

I have a 89 model Toyota, called Hilux here in Australia but it's a twin cab, had a Holden 253 small engine V8 it's on 15 inch rims, would only sit on 140km/h , about 80 mph ,hope you enjoy yours as much as I do, thanks for sharing, all the best to you and your loved ones

@thomaswaddell9012 Год назад

Call it Missy! Because that's what it did toll u got to Matts😀

@84yoda4x4 Год назад

I've made that trip and it's a beautiful drive. I wish I would have done it in a 1st Gen yota though like you're doing it. Your rig reminds me of mine when I first bought it.

@FlexRocksRollovers Год назад

Dude I absolutely love your truck. We need to get back together soon and wheel.

@donlum9128 Год назад

Glad it got running safely.

@rayo4x439 Год назад

Good job on giving this legend the trip it deserves

@randalmartin438 Год назад

Jerome and twin falls are basically the same area they're twenty-two miles apart but Burley which is just a few miles more down the road from Jerome is a hum of yankum ropes

@jameskendrick573 Год назад

Love the truck happy for ya those things when you get them right are awesome

@brycemorgan2381 Год назад

Also if your using a webber carburetor they only max want 3psi of fuel pressure. The factory fuel pump puts out way more, so they ask for you to install a fuel regulator so you can turn down the pressure.

I bought a 1980 Toyota pickup long bed new and drove it for 15 years. Abused it beyond normal use haling over weight loads of wood. Still love the stile of the old straight axil Toyota.✌

Freaking love that truck! I had one just like it in 1998. I was a moron for selling it. Wished I could find another one

@bobg5823 Год назад

Man i live right on the Alabama Georgia line on I-85. I need to catch y'all in a park near us and wheel with y'all! Love ur channel! Awesome change of pace for u going from tons & 42s to the Yota. Cool truck tho. I've always loved that body style

@desertd2609 Год назад

Funny I drove a 1980 Toyota pick up from South Carolina to Arizona in 1994, it was about the same condition as this one but the only issue I had a was a bad alternator……oh and a issue with a a guy in Shreveport, LA. @3am that claimed he wanted to “help me out” but I think he was going to kill me if I did indeed hop in his truck, he was WAY shady! …..I will never forget that night!

@delvallec.4837 Год назад

Like this new videos with a toyota!!! Siiiick truck!

@hiddenwatersflyfishing Год назад

Subscribed because of the Toyota. I have a 1980 that I took on a 6 week road-trip to every state west of Texas. I also have the Chevy ignition mod on my truck.

@FlexRocksRollovers Год назад

Awesome! Glad to have you! We’ll have a lot more Toyota content coming! Check out the last 2 videos… but again, there will be more. Also - check out the last 24 Hell & Back in New Hampshire (5 Part series) it has a super dope first gen in it

@FlexRocksRollovers Год назад

@brycemorgan2381 Год назад

Check fuses for wipers and or wiring in to fuse box usually is loose and I just reach down and tap the box a few time and wipers come back

@DownNDirty_OffRoad Год назад

Matt is an expert at running out of gas!!🤣 That was a rough trip after leaving Nate's Dirt Lifestyle place... Can't believe everything that had happened up to this point. Hope the trip gets better!!

@travisyork3915 Год назад

Lmao 🤣 fr

@horneygeorgeforge7079 Год назад

make sure your air filter is tight and in good shape, dont let the air box is secure too might help.

I had a 1979 Toyota 4wd long bed until it rusted out in the late 1990s. I put a 1972 ford pinto carburetor on it, in the mid 1980s, basically a weber clone. The original carburetor was a mess to rebuild. My only problem was the electric fuel pump in the tank, ( I am surprised it had a mechanicle pump) and the roll over fuel cut off switch. I did a couple of 3 weeks on the road trips with it. Lots of fun!

@FlexRocksRollovers Год назад

The carb in this thing is a Weber! It drove so well since I left sand hollow. I feel like now we got it all working right and all the gremlins are gone!

@mahbriggs Год назад

@Flex, Rocks & Rollovers The weber are great carburetors. Far superior than the original Japanese carbs. The Japanese built great engines but the carburetors were a mess! I'm glad you got it sorted out! I really loved mine, but rust gradually consumed it, when the frame buckled it got retired.

@dongeiger4500 Год назад

Noticed that it has a exposed air filter I suspect the carberator icing up. If that is what is happening, when you stop the engine heat melts the ice and everything is normal

@max7143 Год назад

Nothing like rowing gears in a 40 year old Toyota that on a good day has may 50hp going to the wheels. 3RZ swap would be an awesome upgrade. Or 5VZ. I love the 20/22’s, but the newer engines are so much more fun to drive when you can pull grades at 70.

@PiddlinWilson Год назад

A bad ground what it seems ive added a ground strap an got that problem to go away

@brycemorgan2381 Год назад

I love toyotas I got a 79 I drive daily. Wish I could help out!!!! Stop by northern cali

@randalmartin438 Год назад

Jerome my hometown say go ahead twin falls and then head south down to the Sand hollow area then head east out of the snow

@vwclub3 Год назад

Nope ... Cant say i feel it .... Feels smooth from here

@MrJoesphares Год назад

I live in Boise area and love prost

@stevesporer5434 Год назад

I run a fuel regulator for that carb, about 4 psi maybe too much gas also timing pòssible

@FlexRocksRollovers Год назад

Yeah timing was way off

@rkorsberg Год назад

I think the first thing I'd check would be the fuel filter...probably clogged.??

@Nickwillfixit Год назад

The carbs are not that good, better of fitting the after market fuel injection system, it makes it drive like new, the dizzy did not look good rusty maybe the mechanical advance is seized which could cause the fault. That big soft shackle looks like the right size for Matt off road and Heavy D's crew.

@motivatedpeon Год назад

This may be controversial, but that curry wurst looks like the worst. It may be the curry worst! You might get injured for calling that a curry wurst in my neck of the woods. Also, drinking beer from cologne... Well, it is only ok, if you are in cologne and there's nothing else on tap. Great videos, came here after the Offroad Wrecker Games, great hosting, really enjoyed your videos!

@FlexRocksRollovers Год назад

I failed to mention that this was by far the most awful looking Curry Wurst I’ve ever seen 😂😂 IT’S NOT SUPPOSED TO LOOK LIKE THAT 😂😂

@middleway1885 Год назад

Great stuff... would it be possible to have non-music episodes... it gets hard to hear ya speak... not to mention playing @2x speed, makes the music even more distracting... lol Cheers!

@edzimdahl1158 Год назад

3000 miles? that's quite a long haul for any toyota, regardless of age, condition, or how many miles may be on it

@FlexRocksRollovers Год назад

Almost 3300 actually 😁

@Ashley_Schaeffer Год назад

If Matt is an expert on anything its running out of gas...

@john-clear Год назад

Check the fuel tank venting. The *clug* *clug* *clug* when you were draining the tank is what makes me think the vent is an issue, since the tank wasn't getting enough air into it. That also matches the symptoms that it only slows down when under load for awhile. In stop and go traffic, the restricted venting has time to catch up without pulling a vacuum on the fuel tank. I'm just a keyboard warrior diagnosing via an edited video, so I could be completely wrong, but the tank not draining smoothly jumped out at me.

@TheMlc4life Год назад

Call the truck Cookies and Cream.

@vwclub3 Год назад

Call the Toyota white buffalo

@brycemorgan2381 Год назад

Please put rock slider on before you tottal the cab and bed.

@UncleGo67 Год назад

Call it ( Joy Ride ) After All you have done so far, It Should be a Joy to Ride..🙏😎👍

@west4555 Год назад

Have a radiator shop clean out your tank. Until you do you’re gonna keep clogging fuel filters 4:29

@west4555 Год назад

I’d be willing to bet a dollar that your fuel tank has a ton of sediment in it and when your throttle is wide open it’s starving it of fuel 11:49

@rhoemberg1969 Год назад

Ya got snow on the tires 😐 Toyotas hate ❄️. And your underbody driveshaft was wobbling at the body U joint. Fuel line running down between the body and the frame the brake line rusts out and that was due to rocks packing up between the body and the bed along the back tires ?
