A word to the wise when it comes to the 93 to 94 VAF meter (what your calling a MAF sensor) used on these trucks, if it isn't BROKEN, don't mess with it, The VAF meters for these trucks are no longer available, and if you mess yours up by...

This help?

A standard garden hose gasket is an exact fit once you trim off the 3 tabs.

I Finally have gathered all the parts I think I'll need to get this show on the road. One of my internal goals was to beat my scheduled oil change on the 1FZ. I have about 1k miles left. In the meantime I chased an electrical problem that...

I bought two knock sensors about 6 years ago, both from O'Reilly's, their Import Direct line which were absolutely identical to the OEM parts and Made in Japan, the one I installed back then is still working. At some point later the Import...

I re-wrapped the main engine harness (US spec FZJ80) with heat/abrasion resistant TESA tape (51036) followed by a split sleeve of aluminized fiberglass similar to above (I had a section of the Fire Sleeve but ended up using that for something...

The key thing beyond a heat resistant covering is physically separating the harness from the EGR pipe and securing it in place. The harness comes with a built in plastic clip for this purpose but after time it can fail and that's when the harness...

Indeed. I did order them from Dealer. Pn. 44327-30030

Put your VIN to search your specific vehicle. You didn't specify what you have other than it is a 1997, so we can't say for sure. On my 1997 1FZ-FE US spec, the O2 sensors are in one of the electrical diagrams.

IMO you should assume the high pressure PS hose will not come with the double crush washer/gasket. If you look at photos of aftermarket hoses they show two copper washers/gaskets which can be used, just a bit more fiddly than using the OEM...

Let's make this a one-stop thread for these numbers. Why do we need this? Because while Toyota offers these pistons in at least five different diameters, most websites (and some dealerships) will tell you this, regardless of what P/N you give...

For my stock NA 96 FZJ80 I had been running Denso Iridium Power plugs (# IK16) with an Iridium center electrode for almost 20 years (two sets ~100,000 miles each), never touched the gap. Just visually inspected the gap and electrodes to ensure...

And make sure you use the OEM 1 piece cork gasket 12151-61011 after cleaning the mating surfaces with scotchbrite followed by acetone. No FIPG is used. You should spend some quality time cleaning the front and rear arches (bearing caps), as these...

WTF are you people cutting/welding/drilling to get the oil pan off??? None of this is necessary. Remove the front swaybar and pull the tie rod. Remove the lower front cover plate and unbolt the steering damper. Lift the front of the truck so the...

IME it's often safer to use plastic trim removal tools when prying on parts like this. If you have to use a longer metal tool wrap with tape first. FWIW. https://www.amazon.com/SunplusTrade-Molding-Upholstery-Fastener-Removal/dp/B01M3SP84D

Got photos of the work?

Few more photos

They are not. They are M8x1.25.

They aren't bolts. They are studs and nuts. Nuts: 90179-08059 x4 Studs: They are technically "non-serviced" parts. But you can use 90116-08348 x4 Available from any Toyota dealer.

Ideas on how those intake valves got damaged (valves burned from carbon build-up on seats, valves out of adjustment from age/wear??)? Is this common to that particular engine (IDK)?

Then this menu comes up and select OK then finally you get the good stuff menu I went through the Customize setting and if my memory is still good, looks like everything that was available via Techstream I had customised 9 years ago. @Boston...

This looks too good to be true. What's the catch? Has anyone used this on a 100 series? or an 80 series? I read the ad copy about the auto-VIN only working on the 2006+ models, but it doesn't clearly state what the earliest models supported are.

I agree with all of the statements by Tools R Us. Having worked on the farm and in very heavy dust and dirty conditions, I have seen air filters nearly completely full and plugged. I have worked in the industrial air filtration industry for...
