Somehow I missed this thread lol.... Following now

 

Yes. I changed it out with the old relay from my old fuse box.

 

Hey Cory, you found it. Welcome

 

Pics of the O2

 

@thefatkid Is there any way I can test the plug that the o2 sensor plugs into to see if the right voltage is getting to the sensor?

 

Just throwing this out there. ..

Does the code reader you're using have the ability to clear the codes?

I know some codes won't clear themselves unless you have a certain number of consecutive successful cycles.

That could make troubleshooting a bitch because you won't know if you got it right or not for a while

 

Yeah it gives me an option to clear the codes. I haven't tried clearing it with it. I've only been disconnecting the battery. I'll give it a try.

 

So I cleared the codes with my app and so far no light. I'll have to drive it longer. But the weird thing was the truck didn't want to start at first. Like it wasn't getting fuel. Odd. Plus the steering felt locked up. I pressed on the throttle to get it started. Then I would start it and turn it off and start it again just fine. I checked the power steering and it was toped off just fine. It did act fine after I let the truck idle for a bit. But i'm still concerned why the truck didn't want to start. What do you guys think. Getting air into the system..... maybe a line is loose..... I'll go check out my lines.

 

Usually when you turn the key to on the fuel pump runs for a little to build line pressure right? So you think that maybe it's not turning on till cranked? Or maybe like you said a slight leak making it harder to build up pressure faster? Sorry if this doesn't help at all, just the train of thought I had reading your post.

 

No feel free to comment. This give me way to trouble shoot if it starts acting up again. So far it started fine this morning and drove it to work.

 

Toyota does not cycle the fuel pump until the engine is cranked. More specifically, until it sees airflow past the AFM or a starter signal is seen at the ecu. Being that the vehicle sat for a couple months, have you cycled through all the old fuel in the tank yet?

 

No I haven't. It was at a 1/4 when I started it back up. Then when it hit an 1/8 of a tank I filled it back up again. It's been starting fine with a little belt squeal but I'll get tighten down this weekend and start checking bolts nuts to make sure everything stays tight.

 

Congrats on getting er running Ray, looking forward to seeing you in the dirt this summer.

 

FIFY

 

Took a little detour on the way home. @PS78 I mention to Cory that you posted on his page and to check it out. He said he will look at it. My passenger side CV is leaking from the diff and I was able to press it in by my hand. I think it's being pulled out. Is there anyway I can try and knock it back in to keep it from piping out again.

 

Remember that the seal presses in farther then the end of the tube. It should be in the axle tube about 1/4" on the passenger side.

Unless you are talking about the axle popping out. If it keeps popping out the c-clip is bad.

 

Its seems like it's the axle popping out. But that boot also feels like it's pulling on that end of the CV. I'll try adjusting the boot to see if that helps.

 

Even better.

 

The truck passed the smog test. I'm glad that's done and over with. I also ordered my USMC plates.
