What have you done to your Tacoma today? 1st Gen Edition

I am getting a P0446 and a P0440. I looked it over myself and couldn't find anything. I finally bit the bullet and took it in to the dealership for a diagnostic test. They told me I need a new charcoal canister. They quoted me around $500.
I ended up purchasing one for $250 on Camelback Toyota.
I have yet to change it out though so I haven't found out if it will fix my problem.

 

I need shock help, I believe my rear shocks are worn out. I'm not looking for something expensive but I'm looking for a good shock that will be good at off-roading as well. That will last at least another 10,000 miles before I get my lift

 

Leaf packs and 5100's. Coils and 5100's in the front tomorrow.

 

Dang.. lemme know if you do get it in and it takes care of your problem. And yeah that figures toyota would want an arm and a leg for it.

 

Id just buy the cheap gas charged parts store shocks if you arent gona have them for very long.

 

Figured out that when I put my truck in neutral and let it coast it just revs as if I'm stopped. But once I apply the brakes the revs fluctuates from 1500-750-1500-750 then back to 1500 when I'm under 25mph or let off the brake. I never came across anything that made the brakes do that. Any ideas?

 

I found skyjacker rear shocks for $38 each. Should I go for it?

 

That should be engine braking on your truck. Believe it or not when I let my foot off the gas at 55 with me slightly apply the brakes it drops the RPM's down to 1250 then back up to 1500-1700

 

But it never has done this since I owned it in January. And normal idle for my truck after warm up is 750. It's been at 1500-1750 after warm up since Monday. I do have the P0171 system lean at cylinder 1 going off. I checked maf, O2, cleaned the maf, fuel injector cleaner, vacuum lines. Only thing I can think of is check the vacuum lines again make sure but other than that. I'm stumped

 

Try cleaning either your throttle body or IAF (If I remember right) which is right under the throttle body. I got another question for you before you do this. Was your MAF really dirty, and how many miles is on your truck? Usually if you clean your MAF the computer has to adjust to the increased air its getting. And try higher octane on your gas and see what that does.

 

my bad IAC (idle air control valve) You can use MAF sensor cleaner for that

 

Mmmmm led bar

 

The rear Fuck You light haha

 

The HID takes to long to warm up to give tailgaters the necessary discipline lol. Plus it is nice to have light back there at times.

 

LED bar for instant fuck you

HID for when they back off your ass and you're still pissed at them.

 

So does your girlfriend.


a sticker told me so.

 

That's gold right there haha

 

I'll take a picture in the morning of the one I did. It's a oil water separator from harbor freight it cost me about $7.99 to do. I haven't ran the truck since I installed it but I think it will do the job. Probably have to empty it every oil change.

 

Ha Ha I do.
